INDEX General remarks About the content of the papers The convergence of the problems that are currently facing the research process in general and the universities in particular Is the Triple Helix a “complete” concept? The role of the users in the Triple Helix or the problem of the setting of the research agenda by social demands The role of public policies The new role of the university The ...

Parkinson?¦s disease (PD) is a devastating and an intricate complex neurological disorder that results from the progressive degeneration of nerve cells in Substantia nigra that controls movement. The pathological hallmark of PD is the formation of insoluble protein aggregates known as lewey bodies. Alpha-synuclein is the major constituent of these fibrillar structures. Alpha-synuclein a 140 ami...

A fragment of Histidine rich protein II (HRP II 215-236) was investigated by 14N and 17O electric field gradient, EFG, tensor calculations using DFT. This study is intended to explore the differences between 310-helix and α-helix of HRPII both in the gas phase and in solution. To achieve the aims, the 17O and 14N NQR parameters of a fragment of HRPII (215-236) for both structures are calculated...

triple helix model (th) collaborations involving university, industry and government provide a networked infrastructure for shaping the dynamic fluxes of knowledge base of innovations locally and these fluxes remain emergent within the domains. in this article first the knowledge-based economy, national system of innovation, and three models of uig relations which represent different triple hel...

Inclined curves or so-called general helices are well-known curves in the classical differential geometry of space curves [9] and we refer to the reader for recent works on this type of curves [6, 12]. Recently, Izumiya and Takeuchi have introduced the concept of slant helix in Euclidean 3-space E saying that the normal lines makes a constant angle with a fixed direction [7]. They characterize ...

Ion channels lower the energetic barrier for ion passage across cell membranes and enable the generation of bioelectricity. Electrostatic interactions between permeant ions and channel pore helix dipoles have been proposed as a general mechanism for facilitating ion passage. Here, using genetic selections to probe interactions of an exemplar potassium channel blocker, barium, with the inward re...

Amino acid sequences homologous to 259KLVGKL (X)16KLLR284 of human immunodeficiency virus type 1 reverse transcriptase (HIV-1 RT) are conserved in several nucleotide polymerizing enzymes. This amino acid motif has been identified in the crystal structure model as an element of the enzyme's nucleic acid binding apparatus. It is part of the helix-turn-helix structure, alpha H-turn-alpha I, within...
