Leg 135 of the Ocean Drilling Program drilled and cored eight sites across the Lau Basin and adjacent Tonga Ridge to study the geological evolution of a backarc basin and adjacent oceanic arc and forearc. Six sites (Sites 834, 835, 836, 837, 838, and 839) were drilled within the Lau Basin, each within smaller and narrower (<10 km) north-south fault basins and collectively representing a broad e...

K. S. Lau had shown that a reflexive Banach space has the Mazur Intersection Property (MIP) if and only if every closed bounded convex set is the closed convex hull of its farthest points. In this work, we show that in general this latter property is equivalent to a property stronger than the MIP. As corollaries, we recapture the result of Lau and characterize the w*-MIP in dual of RNP spaces.

Acylation with long-chain fatty acids is a common modification at the N-terminal glycine residues of natural proteins. In this work, we performed HPLC analysis of myristoylglycine (Myr-Gly-OH), palmitoylglycine (Pal-Gly-OH) or lauroylglycine (Lau-Gly-OH), which were produced in the hydrolysates of synthetic Myr-Gly-, Pal-Gly-, or Lau-Gly-peptides, respectively, by means of a mild acid hydrolysi...
