The BaeSR two-component regulatory system controls expression of exporter genes conferring drug resistance in Escherichia coli (S. Nagakubo, K. Nishino, T. Hirata, and A. Yamaguchi, J. Bacteriol. 184:4161-4167, 2002; N. Baranova and H. Nikaido, J. Bacteriol. 184:4168-4176, 2002). To understand the whole picture of BaeSR regulation, a DNA microarray analysis of the effect of BaeR overproduction ...

In PG(2, q), q a prime power, we study the set T of Baer subplanes that contain a fixed triangle PQR. To construct a linear rank 2–geometry over T , we determine the dihedral groups, their orders and possible extensions that are generated by the involutions of two Baer subplanes of T . If q+1 is an odd prime, the (q+1)2 Baer subplanes through the triangle PQR are the points of an affine plane A...

In this paper, we investigate duality of modular g-Riesz bases and g-Riesz bases in Hilbert C*-modules. First we give some characterization of g-Riesz bases in Hilbert C*-modules, by using properties of operator theory. Next, we characterize the duals of a given g-Riesz basis in Hilbert C*-module. In addition, we obtain sufficient and necessary condition for a dual of a g-Riesz basis to be agai...

Let Y denote a D-class symmetric association scheme with D ≥ 3, and suppose Y is almostbipartite Pand Q-polynomial. Let x denote a vertex of Y and let T = T (x) denote the corresponding Terwilliger algebra. We prove that any irreducible T -module W is both thin and dual thin in the sense of Terwilliger. We produce two bases for W and describe the action of T on these bases. We prove that the is...

Let R be a commutative ring. For two (left) R-modules M and N , the set HomR(M,N) of allR-linear maps fromM toN is anR-module under natural addition and scaling operations on linear maps. (If R were non-commutative then the definition (r · f)(m) = r · (f(m)) would yield a function r · f from M to N which is usually not R-linear. Try it!) In the special case where N = R we get the R-module M∨ = ...

The lecithin which is used in cardiolipin antigens for the sero-diagnosis of syphilis is extracted from beef heart tissue or egg yolk by the methods of Pangborn, Maltaner, Tompkins, Beecher, Thompson, and Flynn (1951). The product is actually a mixture of individual lecithins containing chiefly unsaturated but also some saturated fatty acids, the composition varying with the source and method o...
