This study investigates the properties of a durative modifier that exclusively targets result states in Turkish. We call this RSM, standing for Result State Modifier. What is peculiar about RSM it can express actual duration state, as well non-actual an state. Our goal to describe conditions under which these two interpretations are licensed and provide compositional analysis how derived. argue...

The retention factor is the key quantity for thermodynamic analysis of mechanism in chromatographic experiments. In this work, we measure factors moderately polar solutes on four silica-based porous matrices as stationary phases by supercritical fluid chromatography. Elution only possible with binary mixtures carbon dioxide (sc-CO2) and modifier (methanol) due to low polarity pure sc-CO2. addit...

The combination of two existing words is a productive strategy used by speakers to convey new concepts and extend the limits of their vocabulary. In English compounds, the first word or modifier attaches further meaning to the second word or head, thus creating a reference to the intended concept. According to Gagné and Shoben’s (1997) Competition Among Relations In Nominals (CARIN) theory, the...

Since its discovery in 1981, ubiquitin-activating enzyme 1 was thought to be the only E1-type enzyme responsible for ubiquitin activation. Recently, a relatively uncharacterized E1 enzyme, designated ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme 6, was also shown to activate ubiquitin. Ubiquitin-activating enzyme 1 and ubiquitin-like modifier activating enzyme 6 are both essential proteins, and eac...

Genetic evidence suggests that the evolution of resistance to the insecticide diazinon in Lucilia cuprina initially produced an increase in asymmetry. At that time resistant flies were presumed to be at a selective disadvantage in the absence of diazinon. Subsequent evolution in natural populations selected modifiers to ameliorate these effects. The fitness and fluctuating asymmetry levels of r...

If constantly changing genotypes are favorable in host and parasite coevolution, an indefinite escalation of mutation rates would result despite heavy mutational loads. We theoretically study this possibility by examining the mutation modifier dynamics of host and parasite that engage in genotype-specific epidemiological interaction. In the first model, we study the evolutionarily stable (ESS) ...

in this work, we report, optical properties of cd1-xsnxte quantum dots (x= 0.05, 0.10 and 0.15) synthesized in water using thioglycolic acid (tga) as a modifier agent. the optical characterization of the samples was performed through absorption (uv) and photoluminescence spectra (pl). a red shift absorption and fluorescent emission peaks was observed which can be related to the increase of nano...

Abstract The actin is one of the main component eukaryotic cytoskeleton. continuous rearrangement filaments provided by different complexes with divalent cations (Ca 2+ or Mg ) and nucleotides (ATP, ADP). In medical routine, cyclophosphamide (CP) applied as cytostatic it was shown that in vivo muscle filament system changed CP treatment has direct interaction monomers well. evolutionary importa...

We describe two experiments using French noun-noun combinations which parallel a study carried out by Gagné (2001) using English combinations. The order of the modifier and head noun are reversed in French, allowing us to investigate whether the influence of relation priming that Gagné found is due to the order of the modifier and head noun or whether it is due to their different functional rol...

Modifier genes are an integral part of the genetic landscape in both humans and experimental organisms, but have been less well explored in mammals than other systems. A growing number of modifier genes in mouse models of disease nonetheless illustrate the potential for novel findings, while new technical advances promise many more to come. Modifier genes in mouse models include induced mutatio...
