Impact of Buses, Taxis, Passenger Cars, and Traffic Infrastructure on Average Travel Speed
It is known that many variables influence traffic, yet very little is known about the weight of each factor in the dynamics of traffic in cities of developing countries, in many cases due to their peculiar traffic regulations. In this work, we search for the variables that have the most significant impact on the average travel speed of three distinct ...

Post-translational Formylglycine Modification of Bacterial Sulfatases by the Radical S-Adenosylmethionine Protein AtsB [PDF]
C(alpha)-Formylglycine (FGly) is the catalytic residue of sulfatases. FGly is generated by post-translational modification of a cysteine (prokaryotes and eukaryotes) or serine (prokaryotes) located in a conserved (C/S)XPXR motif. AtsB of Klebsiella pneumoniae is directly involved in FGly generation from serine.

Background Attractive toxic sugar bait (ATSB) is a promising “attract and kill”-based approach for mosquito control. It is a combination of flower nectar/fruit juice to attract the mosquitoes, sugar solution to stimulate feeding, and a toxin to kill them.

EFFICACY OF COMMERCIAL ATTRACTIVE TOXIC SUGAR BAIT STATION (ATSB) AGAINST AEDES ALBOPICTUS
The use of toxic sugar baits is a new paradigm in mosquito control. A commercial product of attractive toxic sugar bait station (Spartan Mosquito Eradicator) contains a toxic sugar bait with sodium chloride as the active ingredient and yeast as an attractant. We studied the efficacy of the device against adult Aedes albopictus Skuse. The study composed

Background Attractive toxic sugar bait (ATSB) methods are a new and promising "attract and kill" strategy for mosquito control. Sugar-feeding female and male mosquitoes attracted to ATSB solutions, either sprayed on plants or in bait stations, ingest an ...

Abstract Background Road traffic crashes are a major and increasing cause of injury and death around the world. In 2015, there were almost 6.3 million motor vehicle traffic crashes in the United States. Of these, approximately 1.7 million (27%) involved some form of injury and 32,166 (0.5%) resulted in one or more fatalities (National Highway Traffic ...

The Iron Sulfur Protein AtsB Is Required for Posttranslational Formation of Formylglycine in the Klebsiella Sulfatase [PDF]
The catalytic residue of eukaryotic and prokaryotic sulfatases is a alpha-formylglycine. In the sulfatase of Klebsiella pneumoniae the formylglycine is generated by posttranslational oxidation of serine 72. We cloned the atsBA operon of K. pneumoniae and found that the sulfatase was expressed in inactive form in Escherichia coli transformed with the ...
