α‐d‐2′‐Deoxyadenosine, the anomer of the canonical nucleoside β‐d‐2′‐deoxyadenosine, is a γ‐irradiation product of DNA and a constituent of anomeric DNA. The single‐crystal X‐ray analysis reveals the formation of two conformers with unusual conformational parameters for α‐nucleosides.

History dependence in insect flight decisions during odor tracking [PDF]
Natural decision-making often involves extended decision sequences in response to variable stimuli with complex structure. As an example, many animals follow odor plumes to locate food sources or mates, but turbulence breaks up the advected odor signal ...

Heated soil-water extract effect on bacterial growth: pH or toxic compounds? [PDF]
Fire-induced soil changes influence indirectly on soil microbial response, mainly due to pH increases and organic matter alterations. Nevertheless, field studies include overlapped effects and it is difficult distinguish the real origin of microbial ...

Combination of analysis techniques for efficient track reconstruction in high multiplicity events [PDF]
A novel combination of established data analysis techniques for reconstructing all charged-particle tracks in high energy collisions is proposed. It uses all information available in a collision event while keeping competing choices open as long as ...

Energy-Momentum Distribution: Some Examples [PDF]
In this paper, we elaborate the problem of energy-momentum in General Relativity with the help of some well-known solutions. In this connection, we use the prescriptions of Einstein, Landau-Lifshitz, Papapetrou and M\"{o}ller to compute the energy ...

Calpastatin-mediated inhibition of calpains in the mouse brain prevents mutant ataxin 3 proteolysis, nuclear localization and aggregation, relieving Machado-Joseph disease [PDF]
Machado-Joseph disease is the most frequently found dominantly-inherited cerebellar ataxia. Over-repetition of a CAG trinucleotide in the MJD1 gene translates into a polyglutamine tract within the ataxin 3 protein, which upon proteolysis may trigger ...
