International Portfolios, Capital Accumulation and Foreign Assets Dynamics [PDF]

open access: yesFederal Reserve Bank of Dallas, Globalization and Monetary Policy Institute Working Papers, 2008
Despite the liberalization of capital flows among OECD countries, equity home bias remains sizable. We depart from the two familiar explanations of equity home bias: transaction costs that impede international diversification, and terms of trade responses to supply shocks that provide risk sharing, so that there is little incentive to hold diversified ...

Transient refrigerant distribution in a microchannel heat exchanger heat pump system under different reverse cycle defrosting strategies

open access: yesCase Studies in Thermal Engineering
The migration and redistribution of refrigerant are critical factors that affect the refrigeration system performance. To improve the defrosting and start-up heating performance, it is essential to investigate the transient distribution characteristics ...

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

About the directional properties of Solar Spicules from Hough Transform analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Spicules are intermittently rising above the surface of the Sun eruptions; EUV jets are now also reported in immediately above layers. The variation of spicule orientation with respect to the solar latitude, presumably reflecting the confinement and the ...

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

open access: yesFEBS 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.
