Abstract We describe a partial order on finite simplicial complexes. This provides poset stratification of the product Ran space metric and nonnegative real numbers, through Čech complex. show that paths in this respecting its induce maps between endpoints path.

The small GTPase Ran is required for the trafficking of macromolecules into and out of the nucleus. Ran also has been implicated in cell cycle control, specifically in mitotic spindle assembly. In interphase cells, Ran is predominately nuclear and thought to be GTP bound, but it is also present in the cytoplasm, probably in the GDP-bound state. Nuclear transport factor 2 (NTF2) has been shown t...

The SUMO E3 ligase complex RanBP2/RanGAP1*SUMO1/Ubc9 localizes at cytoplasmic nuclear pore complex (NPC) filaments and is a docking site in nucleocytoplasmic transport. RanBP2 has four Ran binding domains (RBDs), two of which flank RanBP2's E3 ligase region. We thus wondered whether the small GTPase Ran is a target for RanBP2-dependent sumoylation. Indeed, Ran is sumoylated both by a reconstitu...

Ran/TC4 is an essential, nuclear GTPase implicated in the initiation of DNA replication, entry into and exit from mitosis, and in nuclear RNA and protein transport through the nuclear pore complex. This diversity of functions suggests that Ran interacts with a large number of downstream targets. Using an overlay assay, we detected a family of putative target proteins that associate with GTP-bou...

We focus on C-RAN random access protocols for IoT devices that yield low-latency high-rate active-device detection in dense networks of large-array remote radio heads. In this context, we study the problem of learning the strengths of links between detected devices and network sites. In particular, we develop recommendation-system inspired algorithms, which exploit random-access observations co...

Ran is a small GTPase that has been implicated in a variety of nuclear processes, including the maintainance of nuclear structure, protein import, mRNA processing and export, and cell cycle regulation. There has been significant progress in determining the role of Ran in nuclear protein import. However, it has been unclear whether this role is sufficient to account for the diverse effects of di...

The GTPase Ran is best known for its crucial roles in the regulation of nucleocytoplasmic transport in interphase cells and in the organization of the spindle apparatus during mitosis. A flurry of recent reports has now implicated Ran in diverse cytoplasmic events, including trafficking of an ephrin receptor homolog in nematode oocytes, control of neurite outgrowth in Drosophila and mammalian n...

Recently, Raz Raz01] established exponential lower bounds on the size of resolution proofs of the weak pigeonhole principle. We give another proof of this result which leads to better numerical bounds.

Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) is a novel mobile network architecture which can address a number of challenges the operators face while trying to support growing end-user’s needs. The main idea behind C-RAN is to pool the Baseband Units (BBUs) from multiple base stations into centralized BBU Pool for statistical multiplexing gain, while shifting the burden to the high-speed wireline transmi...

Peking University Beijing 100871 Ran also functions in the assembly of the nuclear envelope (NE) at the end of mitosis when the compart...
