Abstract: Many modulated communication signals exhibit a cyclostationarity property. Cyclic-MUSIC algorithm uses the property to improve the detection capability and estimation accuracy over conventional MUSIC algorithm in DOA estimation. Based on cyclic-MUSIC, SC-SSF algorithm extends application bound from narrow-band signals to wideband signals, where a kind of pseudodata matrix is construct...

Photosystem II-dependent cyclic photophosphorylation activity produced by addition of p-phenylenediamines to KCN-Hg-NH(2)OH-inhibited chloroplasts is the product of two separate reactions when a proton/electron donor is the catalyst. The activity observed with an electron donor as catalyst consists of a single reaction. One of the cyclic reactions, evoked by low (</=40 micromolar) concentration...

Moth pheromones cause rises in intracellular Ca(2+) concentrations that activate Ca(2+)-dependent cation channels in antennal olfactory receptor neurons. In addition, mechanisms of adaptation and sensitization depend on changes in cyclic nucleotide concentrations. Here, cyclic nucleotide-activated currents in cultured olfactory receptor neurons of the moth Manduca sexta are described, which sha...

Herein we describe the development of a new class of antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory peptidomimetics: cyclic lipo-α-AApeptides. They have potent and broad-spectrum antibacterial activity against a range of clinically relevant pathogens, including both multidrug-resistant Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Fluorescence microscopy suggests that cyclic lipo-α-AApeptides kill bacteria by...

As second messengers, the cyclic purine nucleotides adenosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cAMP) and guanosine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cGMP) play an essential role in intracellular signaling. Recent data suggest that the cyclic pyrimidine nucleotides cytidine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cCMP) and uridine 3',5'-cyclic monophosphate (cUMP) also act as second messengers. Hydrolysis by phosphodi...

A sensitive electroanalytical method for determination of acetaminophen (ACT) in paracetamol tablet has been developed and validated. Cyclic voltammetry (CV) was used to study the electrochemical behaviour of paracetamol, while differential pulse voltammetry (DPV) was used to determine ACT. Screen printed carbon electrode was used for the analysis. Determination of all parameters in paracetamol...

finite affine groups are given by groups of translations and di-lations on finite cyclic groups. for cyclic groups of prime orderwe develop a time-scale (wavelet) analysis and show that for alarge class of non-zero window signals/vectors, the generatedfull cyclic wavelet system constitutes a frame whose canonicaldual is a cyclic wavelet frame.

Cyclic-AMP and ammonia have been previously identified as extracellular signals during Dictyostelium development. Both are important in controlling morphological movements and cyclic-AMP also in inducing gene expression. The work in tis paper is concerned with their effects on developmental gene expression. Cyclic-AMP was found to act as an inducer during the aggregative (as exemplified by phos...

Several pieces of evidence have been established which indicate that adenosine 3’ ,5’-monophosphate is the intracellular mediator of the action of adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH) on the adrenal cortex. 1. Increases in adrenal cyclic AMP concentrations induced by ACTH occurred before increases in the rate of adrenal steroidogenesis. 2. Increasing doses of ACTH produced increasing concentratio...

Reaction of [2+2] and [6+6] Schiff-base macrocycles with FeBr2 are reported, together preliminary studies the applications iron-containing products. In particular, we have investigated peroxidase-like activity determination H2O2, as well their ability to act catalysts for ring opening polymerization cyclic esters.
