It was not irritation he appeared to express, but the slight strain of an effort to get into relation with the subject. Better to focus the image he closed his eyes awhile. —The Awkward Age (207) In a now-familiar account of Henry James's career, the failure in the theater so spectacularly marked by the Guy Domville debacle of 1895 sent the bruised novelist back to the consolations of fiction a...

Abstract Benjamin Disraeli has often been represented as a mercurial self-fashioner who adopted various expedient personae over the course of his public life. The biographical emphasis on eccentric personality caused many historians to distance from nineteenth-century intellectual contexts in their analysis thought. wrote within literary culture that remained invested Bible an important narrati...

Cyril Northcote Parkinson, British historian, fiction writer, and, so to say, management guru, in Parkinson’s Law created his own successful way of critiquing organizational bureaucratization. work falls under the Burkean category “literature for use,” which affectivity becomes guaranteed by peculiarity irony. As Wayne C. Booth suggested, even case “stable irony” there may often be some possibi...

Crime novel is considered one of the most important innovations twentieth century in field fiction. Together with cinema, television and “elite” literature which often take over some its features (themes plots), it plays a significant role creating representation reality proposed to readers. The investigation described novels set context refers real world, social, political or historical aspect...

The polar flagellum of Vibrio alginolyticus is rotated by the sodium motor. The stator unit of the sodium motor consists of four different proteins: PomA, PomB, MotX and MotY. MotX and MotY, which are unique components of the sodium motor, form the T-ring structure attached to the LP ring in the periplasmic space. MotY has a putative peptidoglycan-binding motif in its C-terminal region and MotX...

The recombinant expression of soluble proteins in Escherichia coli continues to be a major bottleneck in structural genomics. The establishment of reliable protocols for the performance of small-scale expression and solubility testing is an essential component of structural genomic pipelines. The SSGCID Protein Production Group at the University of Washington (UW-PPG) has developed a high-throu...

BACKGROUND Functional Genomics, the systematic characterisation of the functions of an organism's genes, includes the study of the gene products, the proteins. Such studies require methods to express and purify these proteins in a parallel, time and cost effective manner. RESULTS We developed a method for parallel expression and purification of recombinant proteins with a hexahistidine tag (H...
