Four players are playing the french game ”la belote”. All the 32 cards are dealt, each player starts the game with eight cards and she knows them, and all of this is common knowledge. We can formalize this situation using epistemic logic (see [8] for more details): the set of propositional atoms of our language is {(V C)i|V ∈ {7, 8, 9, 10, J,Q,K,A}, C ∈ {♣,♥,♦,♠}, i ∈ {1, 2, 3, 4}}. The model o...

The inducible alginate lyase of Klebsiella ptieitmoniue catalyses the degradation of guluronate-rich regions of the polysaccharide alginate [ I ] . The alginate lyase, which is chromosomally encoded [ 21, is largely secreted into the medium (31. although intracellular forms of the enzyme have been reported [4, 51. Recently, we have reported the cloning and heterologous expression in strains of ...

We present results from six randomized control trials of an integrated approach to improve livelihoods amongst the very poor. The approach combines the transfer of a productive asset with consumption support, training and coaching plus savings encouragement and health education and/or services. Results from the implementation of the same basic program, adapted to a wide variety of geographic an...

An experiment was conducted to identify the biochemical defense enzymes, viz. catalase (CAT), peroxidase (POX), phenylalanine ammonia lyase (PAL) and total phenol responsible for resistance against A. solani in resistant (cv. H-88-78-1) susceptible (Punjab Chhuhara) cultivars of tomato after application Amistar 25 SC (azoxystrobin 0.1%) during 2015 crop season. Azoxystrobin applied their effica...

PAL is a peptidoglycan-associated lipoprotein found in the cell membranes of many Gramnegative bacteria. The presence of PAL has been demonstrated in Escherichia coli and many bacteria. In this paper, we show the presence of a gene coding for a PAL-like protein in C. vinosum, a photosynthetic bacteria and the partial sequence of the PAL gene.

CONTEXT Isolated 17,20 lyase deficiency is commonly defined by apparently normal 17α-hydroxylase activity but severely reduced 17,20 lyase activity of the bifunctional enzyme cytochrome P450 (CYP) enzyme 17A1 (CYP17A1), resulting in sex steroid deficiency but normal glucocorticoid and mineralocorticoid reserve. Cytochrome b5 (CYB5A) is thought to selectively enhance 17,20 lyase activity by faci...

Amidated neuropeptides play essential roles throughout the nervous and endocrine systems. Mice lacking peptidylglycine α-amidating monooxygenase (PAM), the only enzyme capable of producing amidated peptides, are not viable. In the amidation reaction, the reactant (glycine-extended peptide) is converted into a reaction intermediate (hydroxyglycine-extended peptide) by the copper-dependent peptid...
