Summary. This work presents a first taxonomic revision of the historical type collections West Palaearctic bees in tribe Eucerini (Apidae) that are preserved Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle, Paris. A total 72 species names revised, 147 specimens recognised, and 33 synonyms newly proposed. Unexpectedly, some oldest bee were found to be misinterpreted have been incorrectly used for period ne...

MARK2 regulates the establishment of polarity in Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells in part through phosphorylation of serine 227 of Rab11-FIP2. We identified Eps15 as an interacting partner of phospho-S227-Rab11-FIP2 (pS227-FIP2). During recovery from low calcium, Eps15 localized to the lateral membrane before pS227-FIP2 arrival. Later in recovery, Eps15 and pS227-FIP2 colocalized at the l...

This study documents the development of alkalosis in patients returning to caloric intake after a period of starvation and investigates the mechanisms responsible for this metabolic alteration. We studied the acid-base status, bicarbonate reabsorption, acid excretion, and sodium metabolism during fasting and glucose refeeding in 19 patients receiving sodium supplements. Metabolic alkalosis deve...

The present study reports molecular dynamics simulations for biphasic systems comprising tributyl phosphate (TBP) in dodecane and uranyl nitrate in the aqueous phase, which are key chemical species in the well-known Pu-U extraction (PUREX) process. An attempt has been made to understand the nature of interface and mechanism of 'TBP associated uranyl' crossing under neutral and acidic conditions...

Trout stocking in the mid-1960s eliminated the calanoid copepod Hesperodiaptomus arcticus and other largebodied crustaceans such as Gammarus lacustris, Daphnia middendorffiana, and Daphnia pulex from many alpine lakes in the Rocky Mountain Parks of Canada. H. arcticus frequently dominates the plankton communities of fishless lakes, preying on rotifers and nauplius larvae. Following the extirpat...

Due to the connection-oriented nature of the asynchronous transfer mode (ATM), one of the challenges in mobile wireless ATM (WATM) systems is the management of terminal handovers. When ATM connections are reestablished to follow terminals moving between areas covered by distinct base stations, seamless handover protocols are necessary to guarantee that ATM cells are delivered to terminals in th...

functioning in a restored wetland when compared with its natural counterpart. We used the denitrification enWetland restoration projects are frequently evaluated by their hyzyme activity (DEA) assay, a measure of the potential of drologic roles and vegetation characteristics, but their success in rea microbial population to produce the nitrate reductase storing biogeochemical processes, such as...
