Eukaryotic cells require IQGAP family multidomain adapter proteins for cytokinesis, but many questions remain about how IQGAPs contribute to the process. Here we show that fission yeast IQGAP Rng2p is required for both the normal process of contractile ring formation from precursor nodes and an alternative mechanism by which rings form from strands of actin filaments. Our work adds to previous ...

Computer algebra systems often have to deal with piecewise continuous functions. These are, for example, the absolute value function, signum, piecewise defined functions but also functions that are the supremum or infimum of two functions. We present a new algebraic approach to these types of problems. This paper presents a normal form for a function ring containing piecewise polynomial functio...

in this paper, we introduce the new notion of strongly j-clean rings associatedwith polynomial identity g(x) = 0, as a generalization of strongly j-clean rings. we denotestrongly j-clean rings associated with polynomial identity g(x) = 0 by strongly g(x)-j-cleanrings. next, we investigate some properties of strongly g(x)-j-clean.

We investigate the equilibrium property of a mesoscopic ring with a spin-orbit interaction. It is well known that, for a normal mesoscopic ring threaded by a magnetic flux, the electron acquires a Berry phase that induces the persistent (charge) current. Similarly, the spin of an electron acquires a spin Berry phase traversing a ring with a spin-orbit interaction. It is this spin Berry phase th...

We show that the interaction of the magnetic subsystem of a curved magnet with the magnet curvature results in the coupling of a topologically nontrivial magnetization pattern and topology of the object. The mechanism of this coupling is explored and illustrated by an example of a ferromagnetic Möbius ring, where a topologically induced domain wall appears as a ground state in the case of stron...

In the title compound, C20H18N2O2, the central pyrazoline ring has an envelope conformation with the atom substituted by the naphthalene ring as the flap. It bridges a benzene ring and a naphthalene ring system which are almost normal to one another, making a dihedral angle of 82.03 (6) °. There is an intra-molecular O-H⋯N hydrogen bond forming an S(6) ring motif. In the crystal, mol-ecules are...

In the title compound, C18H23NO3, the cyclo-hexane ring has a chair conformation. The oxirane plane (OCC) makes a dihedral angle of 76.15 (13)° with that of the pyrrolidine ring to which it is fused. The mean plane of the cyclo-hexane ring and the benzene ring are almost normal to the pyrrolidine ring, with dihedral angles of 88.47 (8) and 77.85 (8)°, respectively. In the crystal, mol-ecules ar...

Congenital mitral ring is a rare type of congenital mitral stenosis. There are two types of mitral ring: the intramitral ring and the supramitral ring. Intramitral rings are often associated with complex valve pathology, and therefore have a worse prognosis than supramitral rings, in which the mitral apparatus is usually normal. The role of echocardiography in the evaluation of the mitral valve...

In the title compound, C20H14N2O, the plane of the phenyl ring is almost normal to that of the naphthalene ring system, forming a dihedral angle of 83.15 (8)°. The 4H-pyran ring fused with the naphthalene ring system has a flattened boat conformation. In the crystal, mol-ecules are linked by pairs of N-H⋯N hydrogen bonds, forming inversion dimers with an R 2 (2)(12) ring motif. The dimers are c...
