Crystal structures in both oxidized and reduced forms are reported for two bacterial cytochrome c oxidase mutants that define the D and K proton paths, showing conformational change in response to reduction and the loss of strategic waters that can account for inhibition of proton transfer. In the oxidized state both mutants of the Rhodobacter sphaeroides enzyme, D132A and K362M, show overall s...

We study the problem of assortative and disassortative partitions on random $d$-regular graphs. Nodes in graph are partitioned into two non-empty groups. In partition every node requires at least $H$ their neighbors to be own group. they require less than Using cavity method based analysis Belief Propagation algorithm we establish for which combinations parameters $(d,H)$ these exist with high ...

The bud of a Columbia wild-type plant shown at bottom right has an oval shape and is tightly closed — as buds normally remain until the anther matures inside. By contrast, the bud on the lef...
