background: protein-protein interactions do not provide any direct information re­garding the domains within the proteins that mediate the interactions. the majority of proteins are multi domain proteins and the interaction between them is often defined by the pairs of their domains. most of the former studies focus only on interacting do­main pairs. however they do not consider the interaction...

We present a new technique for choosing spatial regions for X-ray spectroscopy, called " contour binning ". The method chooses regions by following contours on a smoothed image of the object. In addition we re-explore a simple method for adaptively smoothing X-ray images according to the local count rate, we term " accumulative smoothing " , which is a generalisation of the method used by FADAP...

The Mediator multiprotein complex functions as a regulator of RNA polymerase II–catalyzed gene transcription. In this study, exome sequencing detected biallelic putative disease-causing variants in MED27, encoding subunit 27, 16 patients from 11 families with novel neurodevelopmental syndrome. Patient phenotypes are highly homogeneous, including global developmental delay, intellectual disabili...

This study describes and evaluates a computational model for microbial fuel cells (MFCs) based on redox mediators with several populations of suspended and attached biofilm microorganisms, and multiple dissolved chemical species. A number of biological, chemical and electrochemical reactions can occur in the bulk liquid, in the biofilm and at the electrode surface. The evolution in time of impo...

The constant increase in the volume of data stored as native XML documents makes fragmentation techniques an important alternative to the performance issues in query processing over these data. Fragmented databases are feasible only if there is a transparent way to query the distributed database, without the need of knowing the fragmentation details and where each fragment is located. This pape...

Homogeneous catalysts (“mediators”) are useful for tuning selectivity in organic electrosynthesis. However, they can have a negative impact on the overall mass and energy balance if used only once or recycled inefficiently. In previous work, we introduced polymediator concept, which soluble redox-active polymers catalyze electrochemical reaction, allowing recovery by dialysis pressure-driven me...

In the present paper, an asymptotic model is constructed for the short-time deformation of an articular cartilage layer modeled as transversely isotropic, transversely homogeneous (TITH) biphasic material. It is assumed that the layer thickness is relatively small compared with the characteristic size of the normal surface load applied to the upper surface of the cartilage layer, while the bott...

Abstract Ferrocenemethanol is employed as an aqueous, homogeneous redox mediator for hydrogen sulfide. The reaction seen to follow EC’ mechanism over the range 6≤pH≤9, with bisulfide reacting four times more rapidly than In presence of 10 vol.% hæmolysed blood, greater concentrations sulfide (as H 2 S or HS − ) are required achieve same degree catalysis, compared absence blood proteins, at both...

nowadays with high competition in area of business, companies have to use different strategies in order to face and control this competition. without doubt not only use of these strategies influences on packaging but also this issue affect on companies’ performance. hence, aim of this research is to study differentiation strategy of porter as a competitive strategy on organizational performance...
