Carbamoyl phosphate synthetase (CPS) from Escherichia coli is allosterically regulated by the metabolites ornithine, IMP, and UMP. Ornithine and IMP function as activators, whereas UMP is an inhibitor. CPS undergoes changes in the state of oligomerization that are dependent on the protein concentration and the binding of allosteric effectors. Ornithine and IMP promote the formation of an (alpha...

In this paper, we give a characterization of strongly Jordan zero-product preserving maps on normed algebras as a generalization of  Jordan zero-product preserving maps. In this direction, we give some illustrative examples to show that the notions of strongly zero-product preserving maps and strongly Jordan zero-product preserving maps are completely different. Also, we prove that the direct p...

Vibrio harveyi luciferase and flavin reductase FRP are, together, a two-component monooxygenase couple. The reduced flavin mononucleotide (FMNH2) generated by FRP must be supplied, through either free diffusion or direct transfer, to luciferase as a substrate. In contrast, single-component bifunctional monooxygenases each contains a bound flavin cofactor and does not require any flavin addition...

We prove that pillage games [Jordan, 2006, “Pillage and property”, JET] can have multiple stable sets, constructing pillage games with up to 2 n−1 3 stable sets, when the number of agents, n, exceeds four. We do so by violating the anonymity axiom common to the existing literature, instead endowing some agents to overpower all but a small number of opposing configurations of agents. Thus, when ...

The higher order oligomeric state of the Na,K-ATPase alphabeta heterodimer in cell membranes is the subject of controversy. We have utilized the baculovirus-infected insect cell system to express Na,K-ATPase with alpha-subunits bearing either His(6) or FLAG epitopes at the carboxyl terminus. Each of these constructs produced functional Na,K-ATPase alphabeta heterodimers that were delivered to t...

During T cell development in the thymus, pre-T cell receptor (TCR) complexes signal CD4(-) CD8(-) (double negative [DN]) thymocytes to differentiate into CD4(+) CD8(+) (double positive [DP]) thymocytes, and they generate such signals without apparent ligand engagements. Although ligand-independent signaling is unusual and might be unique to the pre-TCR, it is possible that other TCR complexes s...

The aim of this work is to introduce and study the notions Hom-pre-Jordan algebra Hom-J-dendriform which generalize Hom-Jordan algebras. algebras are regarded as underlying algebraic structures behind Rota-Baxter operators O-operators introduced in paper. also analogues Hom-pre-Lie for anti-commutator a left multiplication operator gives representation algebra. On other hand, analogue Hom-dendr...

While the leftmost-innermost narrowing algorithm is incomplete, basic narrowing contains redundancies. We remove these redundancies by introducing a new narrowing procedure, called left-to-right basic narrowing algorithm. For each leftmost-innermost rewriting derivation from (s), there is an equivalent left-to-right basic rewriting derivation , which in turn can be projected on a left-to-right ...
