passivity in waiting for godot and endgame: a psychoanalytic reading
this study intends to investigate samuel beckett’s waiting for godot and endgame under the lacanian psychoanalysis. it begins by explaining the most important concepts of lacanian psychoanalysis. the beckettian characters are studied regarding their state of unconscious, and not the state of consciousness as is common in most beckett studies. according to lacan, language plays the sole role in ...
Strongly Correlated Rafts in Both Leaves of an Asymmetric Bilayer.
I consider a model of a bilayer characterized by two order parameters, one in each leaf. That of the inner leaf represents the difference in mole fractions of lipids with large spontaneous curvature, phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), and those with small spontaneous curvatures, phosphatidylcholine (PC) and phosphatidylserine (PS). Similarly, the order parameter in the outer leaf represents the dif...
متن کاملLipid rafts in the plant plasma membrane?
In order to study the molecular characteristics of an integral membrane protein, first the protein should be solubilized. Ascorbate-reducible b-type cytochromes are highly hydrophobic integral membrane proteins with six trans-membrane α-helices. A fully ascorbatereducible b-type cytochrome was easily solubilized by Triton X-100 from phase partitionpurified plasma membranes of 5-day-old etiolate...
متن کاملA critical survey of methods to detect plasma membrane rafts.
The plasma membrane is still one of the enigmatic cellular structures. Although the microscopic structure is getting clearer, not much is known about the organization at the nanometre level. Experimental difficulties have precluded unambiguous approaches, making the current picture rather fuzzy. In consequence, a variety of different membrane models has been proposed over the years, on the basi...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
