Intein-mediated rapid purification of recombinant maxadilan and M65 and their acute effects on plasma glucose [PDF]

Acta Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2008
Maxadilan is a potent vasodilatory peptide present in the salivary glands of the sand fly. Maxadilan and M65, a deletion variation of maxadilan, are agonist- and antagonist-specific for the PAC1 receptor. In order to obtain the recombinant maxadilan and M65 efficiently by intein-mediated single column purification, the genes encoding maxadilan and M65 ...

Speaking Up and Standing Out: How Gendered Logics Shape Women's Self‐Advocacy at Work

Gender, Work &Organization, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A widely held assumption is that women self‐advocate less than men. Our study challenges this view. Drawing on interviews with 71 men and women in a multinational company's leadership development pipeline and 10 HRM managers, we examine how women navigate self‐advocacy within gendered organizational logics.
