Wiskott Aldrich Syndrome protein (WASP) has a unique regulatory role in sealing ring formation and bone resorption in osteoclasts. Here, using the TAT-transduction method, we show the possible role of WASP domain(s) in sealing ring formation and bone resorption. Transduction of TAT-fused full-length WASP peptide induced Arp2/3 complex formation, F-actin content, sealing ring formation and bone ...

Decoding geometric Goppa codes can be reduced to solving the key congruence of a received word in an affine ring. If the code length is smaller than the number of rational points on the curve, then this method can correct up to 12(d ∗ − 1)− s errors, where d∗ is the designed minimum distance of the code and s is the Clifford defect. The affine ring with respect to a place P is the set of all ra...

Institute of Medical Physics, Department of Engineering Physics, Tsinghua University, Beijing, China This work is to replace PET ring in human brain PET/MR system with a dedicated wearable PET insert, aimed at improving both patient feasibility and system performance for brain imaging. The designed PET/MR system includes two parts: the inside parts, including a radio frequency (RF) coil and PET...

For a ring endomorphism $alpha$ and an $alpha$-derivation $delta$, we introduce a concept, so called skew $pi$-Armendariz ring, that is a generalization of both $pi$-Armendariz rings, and $(alpha,delta)$-compatible skew Armendariz rings. We first observe the basic properties of skew $pi$-Armendariz rings, and extend the class of skew $pi$-Armendariz rings through various ring extensions. We nex...

Quinolones rapidly kill bacteria by two mechanisms, one that requires protein synthesis and one that does not. The latter, which is measured as lethal action in the presence of the protein synthesis inhibitor chloramphenicol, is enhanced by N-1 cyclopropyl and C-8 methoxy substituents, as seen with the highly lethal compound PD161144. In some compounds, such as levofloxacin, the N-1 and C-8 sub...

In this paper, we study some ring theoretic properties of the amalgamated duplication ring $Rbowtie I$ of a commutative Noetherian ring $R$ along an ideal $I$ of $R$ which was introduced by D'Anna and Fontana. Indeed, it is determined that when $Rbowtie I$ satisfies Serre's conditions $(R_n)$ and $(S_n)$, and when is a normal ring, a generalized Cohen-Macaulay ring and finally a filter ring.

Let R be an associative ring with unity. An element a in R is said to be r-clean if a = e+r, where e is an idempotent and r is a regular (von Neumann) element in R. If every element of R is r-clean, then R is called an r-clean ring. In this paper, we prove that the concepts of clean ring and r-clean ring are equivalent for abelian rings. Further we prove that if 0 and 1 are the only idempotents...

In the combination of 5-fluorophenyl-1, 3, 7, 9-tetra methylpyrido [2, 3, d, d, 5, 6 dipyrimidine -2, 4, 6, and 8 tetron, there are 4 rings, respectively, ring that is attached to the halogen ring A and, respectively, a ring The lower and the right to the left of the ring A are called C, B, and D. Calculations and studies show that the amount of aromatics in halogen-ring A in all cases has the ...

Valuation theory is one of the main tools for studying higher level orders and the reduced theory of forms over fields, see, for example [BR]. In [MW], the theory of higher level orders and reduced forms was generalized to rings with many units and many of the results for fields carried over to this setting. While it seems desirable to extend these results further, the techniques used for rings...

Several difurylperfluorocyclobutenes showing reversible photochromism were synthesized. In comparison to their cyclopentene homologues they show enhanced quantum yields for ring opening but reduced quantum yields for ring closure. X-ray structure analysis and quantum chemical calculations provide a conclusive explanation for such a behaviour.
