LAP3, a novel plant protein required for pollen development, is essential for proper exine formation [PDF]
We isolated lap3-1 and lap3-2 mutants in ascreen for pollen that displays abnormal stigma binding.Unlike wild-type pollen, lap3-1 and lap3-2 pollen exine isthinner, weaker, and is missing some connections betweentheir roof-like tectum structures.

On the friction coefficient of straight-chain aggregates
A methodology to calculate the friction coefficient of an aggregate in the continuum regime is proposed. The friction coefficient and the monomer shielding factors, aggregate-average or individual, are related to the molecule-aggregate collision rate ...

Dual selection enhances the signaling specificity of a variant of the quorum-sensing transcriptional activator LuxR [PDF]
The transcription factor LuxR activates gene expression in response to binding the signaling molecule 3-oxo-hexanoyl-homoserine lactone (3OC6HSL), an acyl-HSL with a carbonyl substituent at the third carbon of the acyl chain.

Modular pathway engineering for the microbial production of branched-chain fatty alcohols
The intrinsic structural properties of branched long-chain fatty alcohols (BLFLs) in the range of C12 to C18 make them more suitable as diesel fuel replacements and for other industrial applications than their straight-chain counterparts. While microbial

The Chromatic Number of the Disjointness Graph of the Double Chain [PDF]
Let $P$ be a set of $n\geq 4$ points in general position in the plane. Consider all the closed straight line segments with both endpoints in $P$. Suppose that these segments are colored with the rule that disjoint segments receive different colors.

Detection of a branched alkyl molecule in the interstellar medium: iso-propyl cyanide
The largest non-cyclic molecules detected in the interstellar medium (ISM) are organic with a straight-chain carbon backbone. We report an interstellar detection of a branched alkyl molecule, iso-propyl cyanide (i-C3H7CN), with an abundance 0.4 times ...

n-Hosoya polynomials for Pentagonal Chains [PDF]
The diameter, with respect to the n-distance of the graph which represents a straight chain consisting of m pentagonal rings, is obtained in this paper. The n-Hosoya polynomial of , for all m and n, where , is also obtained.

Nutritional values of fatty acid classes are normally discussed on the basis of their saturated, monounsaturated and polyunsaturated structures with implicit understanding that they are straight-chain.

Kinetically driven helix formation during the homopolymer collapse process
Using Langevin simulations, we find that simple 'generic' bead-and-spring homopolymer chains in a sufficiently bad solvent spontaneously develop helical order during the process of collapsing from an initially stretched conformation.

Curvature-induced symmetry breaking in nonlinear Schrodinger models [PDF]
We consider a curved chain of nonlinear oscillators and show that the interplay of curvature and nonlinearity leads to a symmetry breaking when an asymmetric stationary state becomes energetically more favorable than a symmetric stationary state. We show
