Nuclear receptors are ligand-dependent transcription factors responsible for controlling differentiation, growth and development of higher eukaryotes. Three amino acids within the recognition alpha-helix of the DNA-binding domain of the nuclear receptors constitute the so-called "P-box" which determines response element specificity. In the ultraspiracle (Usp) protein, which together with EcR fo...

This article examines the spread of informal practices from G7 to G20, analysing implications G20’s adoption six that have marked as a quintessential governance group. Drawing on archival documents, elite interviews, and embedded participant observation, argument is made are strengths liabilities for G20. Key been central G7’s success do not entail in Furthermore, transpose well into G20 contex...

Additive main effects and multiplicative interaction (AMMI), as well various AMMI-derived statistics, Genotype, Genotype × Environment Interaction (GGE) models were employed on 24 sugarcane genotypes planted during two seasons (2017–18, 2018–19) under different induced salinity stress environments using saline water irrigation (iw) viz., E1 (Normal iw crop season 2017–18), E2 2018–19), E3 (4 ds...

In the wake of the global financial crisis, member jurisdictions of the G20 have embarked upon an ambitious program of reforms to the structure and operation of financial markets. One key element of the reform program is to improve the management of counterparty risk and reduce interconnectedness in over-the-counter (OTC) derivative markets by encouraging greater use of centralised financial ma...

Most previously reported RNA-cleaving DNAzymes require only a single divalent metal ion for catalysis. We recently reported a general trivalent lanthanide-dependent DNAzyme named Ce13d. This work shows that Ce13d requires both Na(+) and a trivalent lanthanide (e.g. Ce(3+)), simultaneously. This discovery is facilitated by the sequence similarity between Ce13d and a recently reported Na(+)-speci...

Six congenic lines containing B complex recombinants R1 = B-F/B-L24, B-G23; R2 = B-F/B-L2, BG23; R3 = B-F/B-L2, B-G23; R4 = B-F/B-L2, B-G23; R5 = B-F/B-L21, B-G19; and R6R6 = B-F/B-L21, B-G23 were tested individually for antibody response against SRBC. R2, R3 and R4 arose from independent recombination events but are serologically identical. Each B complex recombinant was crossed to inbred Line...
