Toxin inhibition in C. crescentus VapBC1 is mediated by a flexible pseudo-palindromic protein motif and modulated by DNA binding [PDF]
Expression of bacterial type II toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems is regulated at the transcriptional level through direct binding of the antitoxin to pseudo-palindromic sequences on operator DNA.

The Agents-are-Substitutes Property in Continuous Generalized Assignment Problems [PDF]
The VCG mechanism has some nice properties if the agents-are-substitutes property holds.For example, for combinatorial auctions the property assures that the VCG mechanism is supported by a pricing equilibrium. The existence of such a pricing equilibrium

Masking of errors in transmission of VAPC-coded speech [PDF]
A subjective evaluation is provided of the bit error sensitivity of the message elements of a Vector Adaptive Predictive (VAPC) speech coder, along with an indication of the amenability of these elements to a popular error masking strategy (cross frame ...

Modeling the Cell Cycle: Why Do Certain Circuits Oscillate? [PDF]
Computational modeling and the theory of nonlinear dynamical systems allow one to not simply describe the events of the cell cycle, but also to understand why these events occur, just as the theory of gravitation allows one to understand why cannonballs ...

살모넬라균 유래 VapBC 와 SehAB 독소-항독소 단백질의 구조적, 기능적 연구 [PDF]
학위논문(박사)--서울대학교 대학원 :약학대학 약학과,2020. 2. 이봉진.세균성의 독소-항독소 시스템은 영양부족, 항생제 처리, 산화스트레스 등의 세포가 힘든 환경에 처했을 때 세포의 유지에 필수적인 역할을 하는 것으로 알려져 주목받고 있다. 독소-항독소 시스템은 항독소의 독소 저해 방식 혹은 항독소의 형태에 따라 6가지 독소-항독소 시스템이 존재한다. 그 중에서 타입 2 독소-항독소 시스템은 가장 많이 연구가 진행되었다.

Characterisation of VapBC Toxin-Antitoxins from Mycobacterium tuberculosis [PDF]
Toxin-antitoxin (TA) systems were identified more than 20 years ago on the mini F plasmid of Escherichia coli as plasmid stability elements; components responsible for purging bacterial cells that lack the plasmid from the population.
