Let's bring our acts together [PDF]

open access: yes
There is an unequivocal sign that a cooperation mechanism, a policymaking forum, a â??Gâ?? in short, is losing effectiveness; that its agenda is becoming an end in itself rather than a premise for purposeful action. It is when its press communiquées lose

Twittering the Boko Haram Uprising in Nigeria: Investigating Pragmatic Acts in the Social Media [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
This paper investigates pragmatic acts in the discourse of tweeters and online feedback comments on the activities of Boko Haram, a terrorist group in Nigeria. The tweets and comments illustrate acts used to express revolutionary feelings and reflect

Structural insights into lacto‐N‐biose I recognition by a family 32 carbohydrate‐binding module from Bifidobacterium bifidum

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bifidobacterium bifidum establishes symbiosis with infants by metabolizing lacto‐N‐biose I (LNB) from human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). The extracellular multidomain enzyme LnbB drives this process, releasing LNB via its catalytic glycoside hydrolase family 20 (GH20) lacto‐N‐biosidase domain.

On geometrically equivalent S-acts [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In this paper, considering the geometric equivalence for algebras of a variety $_{S}A$ of S-acts over a monoid S, we obtain representation theorems describing all types of the equivalence classes of geometrically equivalent S-acts of varieties $_{S}A ...

The role and implications of mammalian cellular circadian entrainment

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
At their most fundamental level, mammalian circadian rhythms occur inside every individual cell. To tell the correct time, cells must align (or ‘entrain’) their circadian rhythm to the external environment. In this review, we highlight how cells entrain to the major circadian cues of light, feeding and temperature, and the implications this has for our

Why Proximity Matters for the Concept of Supererogation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The concept of supererogation is strictly correlated with duty, since its peculiar value is defined by acts that go beyond our regular obligations.

Molecular bases of circadian magnesium rhythms across eukaryotes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Circadian rhythms in intracellular [Mg2+] exist across eukaryotic kingdoms. Central roles for Mg2+ in metabolism suggest that Mg2+ rhythms could regulate daily cellular energy and metabolism. In this Perspective paper, we propose that ancestral prokaryotic transport proteins could be responsible for mediating Mg2+ rhythms and posit a feedback model ...

Learning to converse through dialogic speech acts. An approach to the development of interactional skills

open access: yesLingue e Linguaggi, 2013
This paper presents an approach to the development of oral interactional skills, field-tested with intermediate-level University students of English as a foreign language based on the provision of specific input and training.

Peptide‐based ligand antagonists block a Vibrio cholerae adhesin

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The structure of a peptide‐binding domain of the Vibrio cholerae adhesin FrhA was solved by X‐ray crystallography, revealing how the inhibitory peptide AGYTD binds tightly at its Ca2+‐coordinated pocket. Structure‐guided design incorporating D‐amino acids enhanced binding affinity, providing a foundation for developing anti‐adhesion therapeutics ...

Balancing Acts

open access: yes
Grant Kajii and Polak (2000, Journal of Economic Theory) have identified weak decomposability as the key axiom to characterise the betweenness class for acts without the assumption of probabilistic sophistication, leaving, however, a small gap between necessary and sufficient conditions.
