Antibodies Targeting Novel Neutralizing Epitopes of Hepatitis C Virus Glycoprotein Preclude Genotype 2 Virus Infection. [PDF]
Currently, there is no effective vaccine to prevent hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection, partly due to our insufficient understanding of the virus glycoprotein immunology.

Sustainability assessment of seawater splitting: Prospects, challenges, and future directions
This review presents an overview of seawater splitting by highlighting the most challenging issues that make seawater electrolysis complicated, such as durability, to guide future research in this important area. The strategy to launch life cycle assessments is described to evaluate the short and long‐term impacts as well as the current challenges and ...

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) infection may elicit neutralizing antibodies targeting epitopes conserved in all viral genotypes [PDF]
Anti-hepatitis C virus (HCV) cross-neutralizing human monoclonal antibodies, directed against conserved epitopes on surface E2 glycoprotein, are central tools for understanding virus-host interplay, and for planning strategies for prevention and ...

Manganese‐dependent transcription regulation by MntR and PerR in Thermus thermophilus HB8
Both MntR and PerR homologs in Thermus thermophilus HB8 are activated by manganese in vivo and regulate the expression of metal importers. In this study, the preferred DNA binding sequence of each transcription factor is identified, and the mechanisms of DNA‐binding regulation are explored.

Basepoint freeness for nef and big line bundles in positive characteristic
A necessary and sufficient condition is given for semi-ampleness of a numerically effective (nef) and big line bundle in positive characteristic. One application is to the geometry of the universal stable curve over M_g, specifically, the semi-ampleness ...

Abstract Early neutralizing antibodies against hepatitis C virus (HCV) and CD8 + T cell effector responses can lead to viral clearance. However, these functions alone are not sufficient to protect patients against HCV infection, thus undefined additional antiviral immune mechanisms are required.
