authors identified a tyrosinase-like enzyme, NspF, that was homologous to tyrosinaselike GriF in grixazone biosynthesis. Tyrosinases contain a binuclear copper cluster and have known functions as monoand diphenol oxidases (for example, in melanin production), in keeping with the elucidated role of GriF. However, because a traditional N-oxidase was absent from the 4,3-HNBAm gene cluster, the aut...

However, there has been little analysis of Liechtenstein’s development because the scant research that existed was in German and therefore inaccessible to most American scholars. Furthermore, many saw no need to study Liechtenstein, viewing it as an accident of history with an anachronistic pol...

Abstract Chemical compositional data sets of archaeological artefacts are often analysed using standard statistical procedures. Adopting a different approach, we examine the major element oxides found in Parthian and Sasanian glazed pottery by identifying statistically important ratios conjunction with expert knowledge scientist during, rather than after, identification process. This results me...
