In the crystal structure of the title compound, [Cu(NCS)(C(10)H(8)N(2))](n), the Cu(I) atom is coordinated by two N atoms from two symmetry-related 4,4'-bipyridine (bipy) ligands and one N and one S atom from two symmetry-related thio-cyanate ligands in a distorted tetra-hedral environment. The thio-cyanate ligands bridge the Cu(I) atoms into a zigzag [CuSCN](n) chain running parallel to the a ...

During cytokinetic abscission, the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) proteins are recruited to the midbody and direct the severing of the intercellular bridge. In this issue, Christ et al. (2016. J. Cell Biol. http://dx.doi.org/10.1083/jcb.201507009) demonstrate that two separate but redundant pathways exist to recruit ESCRT-III proteins to the midbody.

In a recent paper Borel and Serre proved the theorem: If 8 is a Lie algebra of characteristic 0 and 8 has an automorphism of prime period without fixed points f^O, then 8 is nilpotent.1 In this note we give a proof valid also for characteristic p^O. By the same method we can prove several other similar results on automorphisms and derivations. Our method is based on decompositions of the Lie al...

Com mercial stat ic strain indicators and signal conditioners vary considerably in their circuit details; and, although most of them are based upon some form of the Wheatstone bridge circuit, the bridge circuit is employed in differing ways in different instruments. Because of the many variations in instrument design, a completely general treatment of instrument nonlinearities is not practicabl...

We present optical spectroscopy, B, V , R, and I CCD photometry, and VLA neutral hydrogen observations of the interacting quartet NGC 6845, also know as Klemola 30. NGC 6845 A, the dominant component, sports a broad and bright tidal bridge and a faint tidal tail, which bifurcates. The tidal bridge has a B[I color bluer than that of the inner disk of NGC 6845 A. Five strong condensations, identi...

Past earthquakes have demonstrated that old RC bridges may be seismically vulnerable. Bridge responses during the last decades illustrated the necessity of the seismic assessment of bridges especially those which were designed with old codes. In this research an existing concrete bridge representative of the most common bridges in the highway system in Iran are studied. Push over and nonlinear ...

statement of problem: mineral trioxid aggregate (mta) cement is widely used for root-end filling, pulp capping, perforation repair and other treatments in endodontics. investigations have shown similar physical and chemical properties for portland cement (type i), root mta and proroot mta. purpose: the aim of this in vivo study was to evaluate the reaction of dog canine pulp after pulp capping ...
