Finite nonassociative division algebras (i.e., finite semifields) with 243 elements are completely classified.

PURPOSE The design and development of synthetic small molecules to disrupt microtubule dynamics is an attractive therapeutic strategy for anticancer drug discovery research. Loss of clinical efficacy of many useful drugs due to drug resistance in tumor cells seems to be a major hurdle in this endeavor. Thus, a search for new chemical entities that bind tubulin, but neither are a substrate of ef...

Received ; accepted – 2 – ABSTRACT Near-infrared Fabry-Perot imaging has revealed H 2 emission extended to about 130 pc from the disk of NGC 253. It is closely related to the hot plasma observed in soft X-rays: filamentary H 2 features are found at the edges of the hot plasma. These are the places of direct interaction between a superwind and its surrounding molecular gas. We suggest that the f...

We present the first unbiased molecular line survey towards an extragalac-tic source, namely the nuclear region of the starburst galaxy NGC 253. The scan covers the frequency band from 129.1 to 175.2 GHz, i.e. most of the 2 mm atmospheric window. We identify 111 spectral features as transitions from 25 different molecular species. Eight of which (three tentatively) are detected for the first ti...

ZNF191(243-368) is the C-terminal region of ZNF191 which contains a putative DNA-binding domain of four Cys2His2 zinc finger motifs. In this study, an expression vector of a fusion protein of ZNF191(243-368) with glutathione-S-transferase (GST) was constructed and transformed into Escherichia coli BL21. The fusion protein GST-ZNF191(243-368) was expressed using this vector to investigate the pr...
