Spatiotemporal and quantitative analyses of phosphoinositides – fluorescent probe—and mass spectrometry‐based approaches

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative

Experienced Utility versus Decision Utility: Putting the 'S' in Satisfaction [PDF]

open access: yes
Recent research distinguishes an individual's decision utility, inferred from her observed choices, from her experienced utility, which more closely matches the notion of happiness. Using various estimation techniques with a unique experimental data set,

Structural instability impairs function of the UDP‐xylose synthase 1 Ile181Asn variant associated with short‐stature genetic syndrome in humans

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
The Ile181Asn variant of human UDP‐xylose synthase (hUXS1), associated with a short‐stature genetic syndrome, has previously been reported as inactive. Our findings demonstrate that Ile181Asn‐hUXS1 retains catalytic activity similar to the wild‐type but exhibits reduced stability, a looser oligomeric state, and an increased tendency to precipitate ...

Characterizing the Nash social welfare relation for infinite utility streams: a note [PDF]

open access: yes
This note provides an axiomatic analysis of a social welfare ordering over infinite utility streams. We offer two characterizations of an infinite-horizon version of the Nash criterion.Infinite generations, intergenerational equity, the Nash ...

The (Glg)ABCs of cyanobacteria: modelling of glycogen synthesis and functional divergence of glycogen synthases in Synechocystis sp. PCC 6803

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
We reconstituted Synechocystis glycogen synthesis in vitro from purified enzymes and showed that two GlgA isoenzymes produce glycogen with different architectures: GlgA1 yields denser, highly branched glycogen, whereas GlgA2 synthesizes longer, less‐branched chains.

SEARCHING FOR RARE RESOURCES IN UNSTRUCTURED P2P NETWORKS

open access: yesElectrica, 2010
This paper has presented a novel algorithm for searching for rare resources in unstructured P2P networks. Existing protocols such as Flooding and Random Walk can effectively locate popular resources while they are limited by very low hit rate for rare ...

THE MARGINAL UTILITY POWER OF SHARING AND INCREASING SOCIAL MARGINAL UTILITY

open access: yesSakarya Üniversitesi İktisat Dergisi, 2015
The concept of utility is well known in microeconomic theory with the decreasing marginal utility. On the contrary of the neo-classical approach of methodological individualism, we argue that a utility maximizing oriented self-interest behavior does not ...

open access: yesThe European Journal of Comparative Economics
Can rising income inequality be reduced by taxation without harming incentives? Yes, it can, when account is taken of man as a social animal who therefore seeks social status. What counts for social status is not our absolute resources but where we stand
