Advances in imaging and reductionist approaches have provided a high-resolution understanding of nuclear pore complex structure and transport, revealing unexpected mechanistic complexities based on nucleoporin functions and specialized import and export pathways.

This study developed highly porous degradable composites as potential scaffolds for bone tissue engineering. These scaffolds consisted of poly-D,L-lactic acid filled with 2 and 15 vol.% of 45S5 Bioglass particles and were produced via thermally induced solid-liquid phase separation and subsequent solvent sublimation. The scaffolds had a bimodal and anisotropic pore structure, with tubular macro...

We present a T E X macro package for generating the arabic writing from a standardized ASCII input notation. It can handle partial or full vocalization, and generates automatically most of the common ligatures. There is limited support for Farsi, Urdu, and Pashto. ArabT E X is compatible with Plain T E X and also most L a T E X environments; arabic and other material can be mixed freely. For sp...

Abstract GeoChemFoam is an open-source OpenFOAM-based toolbox that includes a range of additional packages solve various flow processes from multiphase transport with interface transfer, to single-phase in multiscale porous media, reactive mineral dissolution. In this paper, we present novel solver for simulations on complex pore geometries, including microfluidic devices and micro-CT images, i...

Structural determination of the nuclear pore complex has been limited by the complexity and size of this cellular megalith. By taking advantage of exceptionally stable nucleoporins from the thermophilic fungus Chaetomium thermophilum, Amlacher et al. (2011) provide new insight into a core element of the nuclear pore scaffold.

The remaining oil distribution and displacement mechanism of poly/surface dual flooding stage in medium high permeability reservoir are not clear. In this paper, the conditions Gangxi Area 3 Dagang Oilfield were taken as research object. Based on nuclear magnetic resonance large model physical simulation experiment, characterization micro macro residual start-up enhanced recovery experiment car...

macroH2A is an H2A variant with a highly unusual structural organization. It has a C-terminal domain connected to the N-terminal histone domain by a linker. Crystallographic and biochemical studies show that changes in the L1 loop in the histone fold region of macroH2A impact the structure and potentially the function of nucleosomes. The 1.6-A X-ray structure of the nonhistone region reveals an...

The following propositions are true: (1) Let X be a set, p be a permutation of X, and x, y be elements of X. Then p +· (x, p(y)) +· (y, p(x)) is a permutation of X. (2) Let f be a function and x, y be sets. Suppose x ∈ dom f and y ∈ dom f. Then there exists a permutation p of dom f such that f +· (x, f(y)) +· (y, f(x)) = f · p. Let X be a finite non empty subset of R. The functor minX yielding ...
