Chemical synthesis, 3D structure and ASIC binding site of mambalgin-2 [PDF]
Mambalgins are a novel class of snake venom components that exert potent analgesic effects mediated through the inhibition of acid-sensing ion channels (ASICs). The 57-residue polypeptide mambalgin-2 (Ma-2) was synthesized by using a combination of solid-

Prophetic promise: the lineal return of ‘lopp'd branches’ in Shakespeare's Cymbeline
Abstract This paper identifies the early‐modern conception of prophecy as a word‐magic performed across generations, a verbal promise that anticipates its own realisation in posterity. Just as Francis Bacon upheld the generative power of prophetic utterances by noting their ‘springing and germinant accomplishment throughout many ages’, Shakespeare's ...

Testing Mean Stability of Heteroskedastic Time Series
ABSTRACT Time series models are often fitted to the data without preliminary checks for stability of the mean and variance, conditions that may not hold in much economic and financial data, particularly over long periods. Ignoring such shifts may result in fitting models with spurious dynamics that lead to unsupported and controversial conclusions ...

Sphingomyelinase D from loxosceles laeta venom induces the expression of MMP7 in human keratinocytes: contribution to dermonecrosis [PDF]
Envenomation by Loxosceles spider is characterized by the development of dermonecrosis. In previous studies, we have demonstrated that increased expression/secretion of matrix metalloproteinases 2 and 9, induced by Loxosceles intermedia venom Class 2 ...

Camponotus lateralis (C, D) mimics regional color morphs of Crematogaster (A, B). Field trips brought insights into ecology, trail sharing, sexual reproduction, colony foundation, nest defense, and predation pressure of this mimetic ant. We found that the mimicry is Batesian and suggest several preadaptations for its evolution.
