FtsI (also called PBP3) of Escherichia coli is a transpeptidase required for synthesis of peptidoglycan in the division septum and is one of several proteins that localize to the septal ring. FtsI comprises a small cytoplasmic domain, a transmembrane helix, a noncatalytic domain of unknown function, and a catalytic (transpeptidase) domain. The last two domains reside in the periplasm. We used P...

France, Germany, and Sweden have recently linked vehicle taxes to the carbon dioxide (CO2) emissions rates of passenger vehicles. France has introduced a system of CO2-based purchase taxes and subsidies, whereas Germany and Sweden impose annual circulation (i.e., registration) taxes that are linear functions of CO2 emissions rates. This paper (a) compares the effects of vehicle taxes on registr...

Photosensitivity plays an essential role in the response of plants to their changing environments throughout their life cycle. In soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merrill], several associations between photosensitivity and maturity loci are known, but only limited information at the molecular level is available. The FT3 locus is one of the quantitative trait loci (QTL) for flowering time that correspo...

<p>The intent of this research is to scrutinise the impact digital marketing strategies applied by marketers in automotive industry Malaysia aiding consumers make purchase decisions. In reality, know that alone will not lead consumers’ decisions because all can be motivated digitalisation. Another significant factor influencing relationship strategies. Therefore, interceding strategy betw...

PB1-F2 protein, expressed from an alternative reading frame of most influenza A virus (IAV) PB1 segments, may possess specific residues associated with enhanced inflammation (L62, R75, R79, and L82) and cytotoxicity (I68, L69, and V70). These residues were shown to increase the pathogenicity of primary viral and secondary bacterial infections in a mouse model. In contrast to human seasonal infl...

seed and oil yields, their components, and the relationships among trait performance were determined in 25genotypes of winter type oilseed rape (brassica napus l.). the experiment was carried out at the agricultural and natural resources research center of east azerbaijan, iran, in two consecutive growing seasons 2009-10 and 2010- 11. significant differences were observed in plant height, numbe...

We use a theoretical model and empirically-calibrated simulations of the automobile market to show how the traditional logic of Pigouvian taxation changes when consumers are inattentive to energy costs. Under inattention, there is a "Triple Dividend" from externality taxes: aside from reducing the provision of public bads and generating government revenue, they also reduce allocative ine¢ cienc...
