Protein translocation across the Escherichia coli plasma membrane is facilitated by concerted actions of the SecYEG integral membrane complex and the SecA ATPase. A secY mutation (secY39) affects Arg357, an evolutionarily conserved and functionally important residue, and impairs the translocation function in vivo and in vitro. In this study, we used the "superactive" mutant forms of SecA, which...

The Tamagawa number conjecture of Bloch and Kato describes the behavior at integers of the L-function associated to a motive over Q. Let f be a newform of weight k ≥ 2, level N with coefficients in a number field K. Let M be the motive associated to f and let A be the adjoint motive of M . Let λ be a finite prime of K. We verify the λ-part of the Bloch-Kato conjecture for L(A, 0) and L(A, 1) wh...

We study how the predictive power of level-k models changes as we perturb the classical beauty contest setting along two dimensions: the strength of the coordination motive and the information symmetry. We use a variation of the Morris and Shin (2002) model as the unified framework for our study, and find that the predictive power of level-k models varies considerably along these two dimensions...
