The aim of this paper is to study the behaviour of certain sequence of nonlinear Durrmeyer operators $ND_{n}f$ of the form $$(ND_{n}f)(x)=intlimits_{0}^{1}K_{n}left( x,t,fleft( tright) right) dt,,,0leq xleq 1,,,,,,nin mathbb{N}, $$ acting on bounded functions on an interval $left[ 0,1right] ,$ where $% K_{n}left( x,t,uright) $ satisfies some suitable assumptions. Here we estimate the rate...

The molecular chaperone network plays a critical role in the formation and propagation of self-replicating yeast prions. Not only do individual prions differ in their requirements for certain chaperones, but structural variants of the same prion can also display distinct dependences on the chaperone machinery, specifically Hsp104. The AAA+ ATPase Hsp104 is a disaggregase required for the mainte...

Using the distribution of weak acids to measure the pH gradient (delta pH; interior alkaline) and the distribution of the lipophilic cation [3H]tetraphenylphosphonium+ to monitor the membrane potential (delta psi; interior negative), we studied the electrochemical gradient or protons (delta mu- H+) across the membrane of Micrococcus lysodeikticus cells and plasma membrane vesicles. With reduced...

The effect of local drop of wall stiffness in pressurized waterways on the pressure wave speed and the wave attenuation during transients is investigated experimentally. A new signal-processing procedure to identify the presence of a weak reach is introduced and validated by physical experimentation based on assessing the pressure and vibration records acquired at both ends of a multi-reach ste...
