The article deals with complexity and importance of asking questions in the foreign language classroom. Since questions are one of the most essential teaching tools, teachers use them quite frequently during their lessons.

Calpain small subunit homodimerization is robust and calcium‐independent

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Calpains dimerize via penta‐EF‐hand (PEF) domains. Using single‐molecule force spectroscopy, we measured the strength and kinetics of PEF–PEF homodimer binding. The interaction is robust, shows a transient conformational step before dissociation, and remains largely insensitive to Ca2+.

Referential Descriptions: A Note on Bach

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Analytic Philosophy, 2007
Bach fails to give a satisfactory pragmatic account of referential uses of definite descriptions because he does not explain how a description’s quantificational meaning plays a “key role” in those uses.

Descripciones definidas y negociación del significado : un punto de vista conversacional

open access: yesCuadernos de Investigación Filológica, 2013
In this paper, the reader will find a critical review of Donnellan's well-known distinction between the 'referential' and the 'attributive' uses of definite descriptions. In this respect, Kripke's (1979) and Searle's (1979) proposals are examined.

Hyperosmotic stress induces PARP1‐mediated HPF1‐dependent mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Sorbitol‐induced hyperosmotic stress rapidly induces reversible mono(ADP‐ribosyl)ation (MARylation) on PARP1 without the signs of genotoxic signaling. We show that PARP1 autoMARylation is HPF1 dependent and forms hydroxylamine‐resistant O‐glycosidic linkages.

An isoform of 14‐3‐3 protein regulates transbilayer lipid movement at the plasma membrane

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Loss of 14‐3‐3ζ in CHO cells confers resistance to exogenous phosphatidylserine (PS) and impairs endocytosis‐independent inward flip‐flop of fluorescent PS at the plasma membrane. RNAi‐mediated knockdown reproduces this defect, while no additive effect is seen in ATP11C‐deficient cells.

Sounding the alarm: Functionally referential signaling in Azure-winged Magpie

open access: yesAvian Research
Functionally referential signals are a complex form of communication that conveys information about the external environment. Such signals have been found in a range of mammal and bird species and have helped us understand the complexities of animal ...

The Blue Book on Solipsism and the uses of ‘I’: A dialectical reading

open access: yesDoisPontos, 2012
This paper argues for a dialectical reading of Wittgenstein’s grammatical reminders concerning the uses of the first person pronoun in The Blue Book. Against a widespread, ‘non-referential’ view which takes those reminders as direct attempts at blocking ...

A Criterion of Literality for Names

open access: yesCrítica
In recent years, several kinds of non-referential uses of names have received attention within semantics. However, the lack of a principled basis for drawing the distinction between uses that a semantic theory of names must account for (‘literal’ uses ...

Biophysical approaches for studying viral entry

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Viruses infect all living organisms and have been responsible for major epidemics and pandemics. Their ongoing evolutionary battle with host defenses creates a constant need for improved tools to study viral behavior. Advancing methods to probe viral attachment, fusion, and genome release deepen our understanding of how infections begin and support the
