Helical peptaibol mimics are better ionophores when racemic than when enantiopure.
Helical peptide foldamers rich in α-aminoisobutyric acid (Aib) act as peptaibol-mimicking ionophores in the phospholipid bilayers of artificial vesicles. Racemic samples of these foldamers are more active than their enantiopure counterparts, which was attributed to differing propensities to form aggregates with crystal-like features in the bilayer.
متن کاملWhen two kinases are better than one
When two kinases are better than one V idal-Eychenié et al. describe how two protein kinases team up to respond to DNA damage at stalled replication forks. DNA-dependent protein kinase catalytic subunit (DNA-PKcs) promotes the repair of DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) by nonhomologous end joining (NHEJ). The ATR kinase, on the other hand, initiates cell cycle arrest and DNA repair after recogni...
متن کاملWhen Three Heads Are Better Than Two
The present study investigated the effects of both group size and heterogeneity in relevant math skill on collaborative problem solving. Overall, triads demonstrated better reasoning and more effective cryptarithmetic problem solving than dyads and singletons. Importantly, triads outperformed the best individuals in a nominal groups analysis. Triads were also better able than dyads to take adva...
متن کاملWhen Good = Better Than Average
People report themselves to be above average on simple tasks and below average on difficult tasks. This paper builds on prior research demonstrating this effect and proposes a simpler explanation for it: that people easily conflate relative with absolute evaluation, especially on ambiguous measures of evaluation. The paper then presents a series of four studies that examine this conflation expl...
متن کاملWhen Are K + 1 Queries Better than K?
Let A be any nonrecursive set. For each k 0, we show that there are functions (k + 1)-truth-table reducible to A that are not k-weak-truth-table reducible to A; and we show that there are functions (k + 1)-Turing reducible to A that are not k-Turing reducible to A. Intuitively, this means that k + 1 queries to a nonrecursive oracle are strictly more useful than k queries to the same oracle (for...
