Contextual situations in competitions that influence well-being and recovery of Futsal athletes before home official matches

Apunts Sports Medicine, 2022
Introduction: contextual variables associated with competitive stress may affect the perception of the well-being and recovery of futsal athletes. Material and Methods: twenty male professional futsal players responded to the Hooper Index (HI) and Total ...

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Conserved structural motifs in PAS, LOV, and CRY proteins regulate circadian rhythms and are therapeutic targets

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cryptochrome and PAS/LOV proteins play intricate roles in circadian clocks where they act as both sensors and mediators of protein–protein interactions. Their ubiquitous presence in signaling networks has positioned them as targets for small‐molecule therapeutics. This review provides a structural introduction to these protein families.

Sequence determinants of RNA G‐quadruplex unfolding by Arg‐rich regions

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We show that Arg‐rich peptides selectively unfold RNA G‐quadruplexes, but not RNA stem‐loops or DNA/RNA duplexes. This length‐dependent activity is inhibited by acidic residues and is conserved among SR and SR‐related proteins (SRSF1, SRSF3, SRSF9, U1‐70K, and U2AF1).

Strategic behavior and competition: An overview [PDF]

Journal of Economic Theory, 1986
Abstract The eleven papers of the Journal of Economic Theory symposium issue, “Strategic Behavior and Competition,” are introduced. This symposium can be thought of as an outgrowth of the earlier symposium, “Noncooperative Approaches to the Theory of Perfect Competition,” which appeared in J. Econ. Theory 22 (1980).

Correlates of food competition behavior [PDF]

Psychonomic Science, 1970
Random-bred mice from a five-way cross of inbred strains were tested in the open field, running wheel, and food competition tests, various measures were intercorrelated to determine the associations between these behaviors. The results indicated that food competition behavior was positively associated with early running wheel activity, negatively ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

The planar cell polarity protein Vangl2 interacts with the PDZ‐domains of Scribble but not with a unique PDZ‐like domain in Inturned

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Structural and biochemical characterisations show that the planar cell polarity (PCP) protein Inturned harbours a unique PDZ‐like domain that does not bind canonical PDZ‐binding motifs (PBMs) like that of another PCP protein Vangl2. In contrast, the apical‐basal polarity protein Scribble contains four PDZ domains that bind Vangl2, but one PDZ domain ...

Does Competition Destroy Ethical Behavior? [PDF]

American Economic Review, 2004
Explanations of unethical behavior often neglect the role of competition, as opposed to greed, in assuring its spread. Using the examples of child labor, corruption, excessive' executive pay, corporate earnings manipulation, and commercial activities by universities, this paper clarifies the role of competition in promoting censured conduct.
