Alternative sigma factors allow bacteria to reprogram global transcription rapidly and to adapt to changes in the environment. Here we report on growth- and cell division-dependent sigma(32) regulon activity in Escherichia coli in batch culture. By analyzing sigma(32) expression in growing cells, an increase in sigma(32) protein levels is observed during the first round of cell division after e...

in this note we characterize the compact weighted frobenius-perron operator $p$ on $l^1(sigma)$ and determine their spectra. we also show that every weakly compact weighted frobenius-perron operator on $l^1(sigma)$ is compact.

In the present paper a solution of the generalizedquadratic functional equation$$f(kx+ y)+f(kx+sigma(y))=2k^{2}f(x)+2f(y),phantom{+} x,yin{E}$$ isgiven where $sigma$ is an involution of the normed space $E$ and$k$ is a fixed positive integer. Furthermore we investigate theHyers-Ulam-Rassias stability of the functional equation. TheHyers-Ulam stability on unbounded domains is also studied.Applic...

sigma(32) is the first alternative sigma factor discovered in Escherichia coli and can direct transcription of many genes in response to heat shock stress. To define the physiological role of sigma(32), we have used transcription profiling experiments to identify, on a genome-wide basis, genes under the control of sigma(32) in E. coli by moderate induction of a plasmid-borne rpoH gene under def...

Let $M_R$ be a non-zero‎ ‎module and ${mathcal F}‎: ‎sigma[M_R]times sigma[M_R]‎ ‎rightarrow$ Mod-$Bbb{Z}$ a bifunctor‎. ‎The‎ ‎$mathcal{F}$-reversibility of $M$ is defined by ${mathcal‎ ‎F}(X,Y)=0 Rightarrow {mathcal F}(Y,X)=0$ for all non-zero $X,Y$‎ ‎in $sigma[M_R]$‎. ‎Hom (resp‎. ‎Rej)-reversibility of $M$ is‎ ‎characterized in different ways‎. ‎Among other things‎, ‎it is shown‎ ‎th...

A frame $L$ is called {it coz-dense} if $Sigma_{coz(alpha)}=emptyset$ implies $alpha=mathbf 0$. Let $mathcal RL$ be the ring of real-valued continuous functions on a coz-dense and completely regular frame $L$. We present a description of the socle of the ring $mathcal RL$ based on minimal ideals of $mathcal RL$ and zero sets in pointfree topology. We show that socle of $mathcal RL$ is an essent...

The switch of RNA polymerase specificity from early to late promoters of bacteriophage T4 is achieved by substitution of host sigma factor, sigma 70, with the T4 induced factor, sigma gp55. However, overproduction of sigma gp55 from an expression vector is not detrimental to Escherichia coli growth. Direct competition binding assays demonstrate that sigma 70 readily displaces sigma gp55 from RN...

The value of the electrocardiogram in assessing infarct size was studied using serial estimates of the MB isomer of creatine kinase (CK MB) in plasma, serial 35 lead praecordial maps in 28 patients with anterior myocardial infarction, and serial 12 lead electrocardiograms in 17 patients with inferior myocardial infarction. In patients with anterior infarcts, sigma ST, sigma R, sigma Q, sigma R/...
