Dynamic signaling and market breakdown
We consider the effects a public revelation of information (e.g. rating, grade) has on trading in a dynamic signaling model. Competing buyers offer prices to a privately informed seller who can reject them and delay trade. Delay is costly and the seller has no commitment to its duration. The external public information allows for signaling in equilibrium. More interestingly, we characterize the...
متن کاملBlood Trimethylamine-N-Oxide Originates from Microbiota Mediated Breakdown of Phosphatidylcholine and Absorption from Small Intestine
Elevated serum trimethylamine-N-oxide (TMAO) was previously reported to be associated with an elevated risk for cardiovascular events. TMAO originates from the microbiota-dependent breakdown of food-derived phosphatidylcholine (PC) to trimethylamine (TMA), which is oxidized by hepatic flavin-containing monooxygenases to TMAO. Our aim was to investigate the predominant site of absorption of the ...
متن کاملDriving biomass breakdown through engineered cellulosomes
Extraction of sugar is the rate-limiting step in converting unpretreated biomass into value-added products through microbial fermentation. Both anaerobic fungi and anaerobic bacteria have evolved to produce large multi-cellulase complexes referred to as cellulosomes, which are powerful machines for biomass deconstruction. Characterization of bacterial cellulosomes has inspired synthetic "design...
متن کاملK-ras-transformed NIH-3T3 fibroblasts Involvement of intracellular Ca2+ oscillations in phosphatidylcholine breakdown
Bradykinin (BK) induced a biphasic increase in 1,2-diacylglycerol (DAG) in both K-ras-transformed fibroblasts (DT) and the parent NIH-3T3 cells. The first phase was coincident with the increase in Ins(1,4,5)P3 resulting from PtdIns(4,5)P2 hydrolysis, and the second, sustained, phase was derived from phosphatidylcholine (PtdCho) hydrolysis. In NIH-3T3 cells, stimulation by BK induced greater pro...
متن کاملEpidermal Growth Factor Receptor Cell Survival Signaling Requires Phosphatidylcholine Biosynthesis
Identification of pro-cell-survival signaling pathways has implications for cancer, cardiovascular and neurodegenerative disease. We show that the Caenorhaditis elegans epidermal growth factor receptor LET-23 has a pro-survival function in counteracting excitotoxicity, and we identify novel molecular players required for this pro-survival signaling. uv1 sensory cells in the C. elegans uterus un...
