The Ran GTPase system affects many cellular processes, including the regulation of cell cycle progression, nuclear envelope structure and function, and nucleocytoplasmic transport. The biochemical basis for the involvement of Ran in nuclear import and export has been well documented, but the direct targets of Ran in other cellular processes have not yet been identified. There is, however, mount...

Suppose $T$ and $S$ are Moore-Penrose invertible operators betweenHilbert C*-module. Some necessary and sufficient conditions are given for thereverse order law $(TS)^{ dag} =S^{ dag} T^{ dag}$ to hold.In particular, we show that the equality holds if and only if $Ran(T^{*}TS) subseteq Ran(S)$ and $Ran(SS^{*}T^{*}) subseteq Ran(T^{*}),$ which was studied first by Greville [{it SIAM Rev. 8 (1966...

The impact of thin film confinement on the ordering of lamellae was investigated using symmetric poly(styrene-b-[isoprene-ran-epoxyisoprene]) diblock copolymers bound by nonpreferential wetting interfaces. The order-disorder transition temperature (TODT) and the occurrence of composition fluctuations in the disordered state are not significantly affected by two-dimensional confinement. Directed...

We give an example of a boolean function whose information complexity is exponentially smaller than its communication complexity. Our result simplifies recent work of Ganor, Kol and Raz [GKR14a, GKR14b].

In-situ TiB whisker-reinforced Ti-6Al-4V (TC4) titanium matrix composites (TiBw/TC4) with quasi-continuous networks were successfully fabricated by vacuum hot-pressing sintering. The effects of the hot-hydrostatic canned extrusion on stock utilization, microstructure and mechanical properties of the TiBw/TC4 composites were investigated. It was satisfactory that the utilization of composites co...
