The modified Korteweg-de Vries equation on the quarter plane with t-periodic data [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Nonlinear Mathematical Physics, 2021
We study the modified Korteweg-de Vries equation posed on the quarter plane with asymptotically t-periodic Dirichlet boundary datum u(0,t) in the sense that u(0,t) tends to a periodic function g0 (t) with period τ as t → ∞. We consider the perturbative expansion of the solution in a small e > 0.

The models successfully simulated the annual change in the density of infected trees for four pine stands. ABSTRACT Pine wilt disease is caused by the pinewood nematode (Bursaphelenchus xylophilus Steiner et ...

4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase in malaria parasites and enhances atovaquone efficacy

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Atovaquone is an antimalarial requiring potentiation for sufficient efficacy. We pursued strategies to enhance its activity, showing that 4‐nitrobenzoate inhibits 4‐hydroxybenzoate polyprenyltransferase, decreasing ubiquinone biosynthesis. Since atovaquone competes with ubiquinol in mitochondria, 4‐nitrobenzoate facilitates its action, potentiating ...
