SUMMARY Nuclear import and export are crucial processes for any eukaryotic cell, as they govern substrate exchange between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Proteins involved in the nuclear transport network are generally conserved among eukaryotes, from yeast and fungi to animals and plants. Various pathogens, including some plant viruses, need to enter the host nucleus to gain access to its repl...

This scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) study uses a supramolecular two-dimensional architecture of trimesic acid molecules adsorbed on a graphite substrate as a host for the incorporation of C60 as a molecular guest. By choosing a proper solvent, it was possible to verify that self-assembly of the host-guest structure can be accomplished at the liquid solid interface. Because of the ideal ste...

The failure of induction of tryptophan pyrrolase (TP) in the majority of hepatomas after the administration of substrate or hormone was shown probably to be the result of a basic defect in the tumor cell itself, and not of the lowered blood flow or the lack of portal blood supply to the tumor. Two exceptions, Hepatomas H-35 and 7793, were shown to have a significant sub strate induction in the ...

Transition from latency to active tuberculosis requires Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) to penetrate the phagosomal membrane and translocate to the cytosol of the host macrophage. Quantitative two-photon fluorescence resonance energy transfer (FRET) microscopy is developed to measure cytosolic translocation using Mycobacterium marinum (Mm) as a model organism for Mtb. Macrophages were infected...

A compact dual-band antenna made of high dielectric constant substrate is studied. Embedding a higher dielectric cylindrical inside the substrate host cylindrical enhances the dual-band behaviour. The first part displays the characteristics of single CRDA as return loss, bandwidth and radiation pattern, then, the second part describes the aim of using an antenna, composed by the arrangement of ...

in  this paper  thin  films of  tin sulfide (sns) were deposited on  the glass substrates using spray pyrolysis method with the substrate temperatures in the range of 400–600℃, keeping the other deposition parameters constant. in  this work  the characteristic of sns  thin  films  investigated. the xrd pattern and optical transmittance of thin films also are discussed. with the change in concen...

substrates' concentration profile was studied in a porous matrix containing immobilized amyloglucosidase for glucose production. this analysis was performed by using an analytical method called least square method, and the results were compared with numerical solution. effects of effective diffusivity, michael's constant, maximum reaction rate and initial substrate concentration were studied on...
