Precarious Sovereignty in a Post-Liberal Europe : the Covid-19 Emergency in Estonia and Finland

2020

The paper addresses a puzzle resulting from the current global state of alert: the coronavirus pandemic brought us back to the world of the allegedly sovereign nation states with borders and national governments in charge, yet in fact, this retrieved sovereignty looks very vulnerable and precarious. We explain this controversy through a triad of concepts—sovereignty, governmentality, and post-liberalism—that we apply to an analysis of a corona-imposed state of emergency in Estonia and Finland. Based on comparative case study research, we posit that sovereignty is precarious in post-liberalism due to its large dependence on the technologies of responsibilization and agency. From a biopolitic…

Spread of hepatitis B virus infection among family contacts of asymptomatic HBsAg carriers

1979

Family members of 34 asymptomatic HBsAg carriers were tested for different hepatitis B virus (HBV) markers. Among 67 family members tested 24 (36%) presented signs of a past or ongoing HBV-infection. Spread of HBV-infection was particularly high in those families in which the HBsAg carrier was positive for HBeAg and Dane particle-associated DNA polymerase activity. Non-parenteral “horizontal” transmission of HBV among spouses and brothers and sisters and probably parenteral vertical transmission of HBV from carrier mothers to their infants occurred in approximately the same frequency. Fathers transmitted HBV unfrequently to their offsprings. The results show that the risk to acquire a HBV-i…

Masonry structures: A proposal of analytical generation of fragility functions for tsunami impact – Application to the Mediterranean coasts

2021

Abstract Evaluation of tsunami vulnerability of coastal buildings is gaining high interest in recent years in the areas with high tsunami hazard. Fragility evaluation is a fundamental step to obtain a quantitative estimation of the probability of building damage and in order to define possible strategies for risk mitigation. Several empirical fragility curves are available for masonry structures. However, an empirical fragility curve is generally based on field surveys after tsunami events, not always available. Conversely, analytical fragility curves are based on prediction approaches. In this paper, a proposal for the evaluation of analytical fragility curves for masonry structures typica…

Los iconos de Franco: imágenes en la memoria

2002

Las imágenes de Franco distan mucho de ser homogéneas. Cubren un abanico muy amplio en el tiempo y en el espacio. Por una parte, Franco exhibe mudas muy notables desde el comienzo de su actividad: general del Ejército español, militar africanista, estadista, líder ideológico, devoto católico, padre y luego abuelo de familia... Todas estas variantes habían de combinarse con espacios que le eran más o menos acordes: celebraciones del culto, visita a lugares de memoria, inauguraciones, desfiles militares, reuniones del Consejo Nacional de Falange, etc.

A QSAR study investigating the potential anti-HIV-1 effect of some acyclovir and ganciclovir analogs

2009

A QSAR study, involving the use of calculated physical-chemical properties (TSAR TM ), and the use of a neural network approach (TSAR TM ), has been performed on the potential anti-HIV-1 activity of a series of Acyclovir and Ganciclovir analogs. Model obtained allows reliable predictions for the anti-HIV-1 activity of these derivatives, and showed that the presence of the Ganciclovir chain in triazolopyrrolopyrimidine and pyrimidopyrrolopyrimidine series seems to increase the antiviral effect.

A Gene-Specific Requirement for FACT during Transcription Is Related to the Chromatin Organization of the Transcribed Region

2006

The FACT complex stimulates transcription elongation on nucleosomal templates. In vivo experiments also involve FACT in the reassembly of nucleosomes traversed by RNA polymerase II. Since several features of chromatin organization vary throughout the genome, we wondered whether FACT is equally required for all genes. We show in this study that the in vivo depletion of Spt16, one of the subunits of Saccharomyces cerevisiae FACT, strongly affects transcription of three genes, GAL1, PHO5, and Kluyveromyces lactis LAC4, which exhibit positioned nucleosomes at their transcribed regions. In contrast, showing a random nucleosome structure, YAT1 and Escherichia coli lacZ are only mildly influenced …

What do you mean by transcription rate?

2013

mRNA synthesis in all organisms is performed by RNA polymerases, which work as nanomachines on DNA templates. The rate at which their product is made is an important parameter in gene expression. Transcription rate encompasses two related, yet different, concepts: the nascent transcription rate, which measures the in situ mRNA production by RNA polymerase, and the rate of synthesis of mature mRNA, which measures the contribution of transcription to the mRNA concentration. Both parameters are useful for molecular biologists, but they are not interchangeable and they are expressed in different units. It is important to distinguish when and where each one should be used. We propose that for fu…
