Upstream mergers, downstream mergers, and secret vertical contracts
In an industry characterised by secret vertical contracts, we consider a benchmark case where two vertical chains exist, with two upstream manufacturers selling to two downstream retailers, and show that the equilibrium prices are independent of whether upstream or downstream ̄rms have all the bargaining power. We then analyse two alternative mergers, and show that a downstream merger (which gi...
متن کاملUpstream and downstream of mTOR.
The evolutionarily conserved checkpoint protein kinase, TOR (target of rapamycin), has emerged as a major effector of cell growth and proliferation via the regulation of protein synthesis. Work in the last decade clearly demonstrates that TOR controls protein synthesis through a stunning number of downstream targets. Some of the targets are phosphorylated directly by TOR, but many are phosphory...
متن کاملMaking mesoderm-upstream and downstream of Xbra 219 Making mesoderm–upstream and downstream of Xbra
The mesoderm of the amphibian embryo is formed through an inductive interaction in which cells of the vegetal hemisphere of the embryo act on overlying equatorial cells. My laboratory is studying the Brachyury gene, which plays a key role in this interaction, being both necessary and sufficient for normal mesoderm formation. In this article I describe our attempts to understand how Xenopus Brac...
متن کاملDownstream Investment in Oligopoly
We examine cost-reducing investment in vertically-related oligopolies, where firms may be vertically integrated or separated. Analyzing a standard linear Cournot model, we show that: (i) Integrated firms invest more than separated competitors. (ii) Vertical integration increases own investment and decreases competitor investment. (iii) Firms may integrate strategically so as to preempt investme...
متن کاملUpstream and Downstream Influence on Stbli Unsteadiness
Direct numerical simulation data of a 24 compression ramp configuration are used to analyze the shock motion. The characteristic frequencies in the incoming boundary layer are reported for reference. The shock wave motion exhibits high-frequency spanwise wrinkling, as well as low-frequency streamwise motion. Correlations between the incoming flow and the shock motions, as well as the downstream...
