Continuous gravitational waves from spinning deformed neutron stars have not been detected yet and are one of the most promising signals for future detection. All-sky searches continuous unknown in binary systems computationally challenging search type. Consequently, very few algorithms implementations exist these sources, only a handful such performed so far. In this paper, we present new all-...

Mammalian gene expression is usually carried out at the level of mRNA where the amount of mRNA of interest is measured under different conditions such as growth and development. It is therefore important to use a "housekeeping gene", that does not change in relative abundance during the experimental conditions, as a standard or internal control. However, recent data suggest that expression of s...

Sortase A from Staphylococcus aureus attracts growing interest for its use in biotechnological protein modification. This enzyme binds to a short signal sequence at the C terminus of a target protein, cleaves it by formation of an acyl-enzyme intermediate, and subsequently attaches an oligoglycine with a peptide bond. In this work, we explored its usability for the modification of the L19 Fab f...

The eukaryotic ribosome contains two lowmolecular weight RNAs, 5 S RNA and 5.8 S RNA (for reviews [ 1,2]). The larger species is specific only for eukaryotic ribosome and, like 5 S RNA, is a component of the large subunit. Earlier we found that the immobilized rat liver 5.8 S RNA forms a complex with 60 S subunit proteins L.5, L6, L7 and L18 [3]. The yeast 5.8 S RNA has been shown to interact a...

UNLABELLED Targeting proteins that are overexpressed in atherosclerotic plaques may open novel diagnostic applications. The C domain of tenascin-C is absent from normal adult tissues but can be inserted during tumor progression or tissue repair into the molecule by alternative splicing. We tested the ability of the human antibody G11, specific to this antigen, to reveal murine atherosclerotic p...

This paper proposes a new approach to explain the long-term evolution of a supplier industry. The network of vertical relations between suppliers and buyers is identified as a determinant of the concentration of the supplier industry and of the dynamics of market shares. The vertical structure of the industry is captured by collecting information on all vertical relations between dyads of firms...
