Rethinking the contract‐failure theory
Abstract The contract‐failure theory posits that the nonprofit form can be an indicator of high product quality because the nondistribution constraint reduces the nonprofit manager's financial benefits from cheating. This would give nonprofits an advantage over for‐profit firms when consumers cannot determine product quality and thus explains ...

Dietary selenium (Se) deficiency is recognized as a global problem, and exogenous Se supplementation can effectively enrich its levels in animal bodies. Offal tissues are equally important as meat in Se enrichment. Varying properties among Se species require information beyond total Se concentration to fully evaluate health risk/benefits.

The very early evolution of protein translocation across membranes.
In this study, we used a computational approach to investigate the early evolutionary history of a system of proteins that, together, embed and translocate other proteins across cell membranes.

Structure of the SecY Complex Unlocked by a Preprotein Mimic
The Sec complex forms the core of a conserved machinery coordinating the passage of proteins across or into biological membranes. The bacterial complex SecYEG interacts with the ATPase SecA or translating ribosomes to translocate secretory and membrane ...

Modeling the Effects of prl Mutations on the Escherichia coli SecY Complex [PDF]
The apparatus responsible for translocation of proteins across bacterial membranes is the conserved SecY complex, consisting of SecY, SecE, and SecG.

A SecE Mutation That Modulates SecY-SecE Translocase Assembly, Identified as a Specific Suppressor of SecY Defects [PDF]
ABSTRACT The SecY39(Cs) (cold-sensitive) alteration of Arg357 results in a defect of translocation initiation. As a means to dissect the Sec translocation machinery, we isolated mutations that act as suppressors of the secY39 defect.

Dengue virus (DENV) infection can potentially lead to severe dengue disease due to the risk of antibody‐dependent enhancement. This study reports a comparative analysis of the host cytokine/chemokine response triggered by primary and secondary DENV infections using an artificial ex vivo whole‐blood coculture model to simulate viremia during the acute ...

A short motif in Drosophila SECIS Binding Protein 2 provides differential binding affinity to SECIS RNA hairpins [PDF]
Selenoproteins contain the amino acid selenocysteine which is encoded by a UGA Sec codon. Recoding UGA Sec requires a complex mechanism, comprising the cis-acting SECIS RNA hairpin in the 3'UTR of selenoprotein mRNAs, and trans-acting factors. Among these, the SECIS Binding Protein 2 (SBP2) is central to the mechanism. SBP2 has been so far functionally
