Signal Recognition Particle 54 kD Protein (SRP54) from the Marine Sponge Geodia cydonium
2002
In the systematic search for phylogenetically conserved proteins in the simplest and most ancient extant metazoan phylum – Porifera, we have identified and analyzed a cDNA encoding the signal recognition particle 54 kD protein (SRP54) from the marine sponge Geodia cydonium (Demospongiae). The signal recognition particle (SRP) is a universally conserved ribonucleoprotein complex of a very ancient origin, comprising SRP RNA and several proteins (six in mammals). The nucleotide sequence of the sponge cDNA predicts a protein of 499 amino acid residues with a calculated Mr of 55175. G. cydonium SRP54 displays unusually high overall similarity (90 %) with human/mammalian SRP54 proteins, higher th…
Regulation of motility of cells from marine sponges by calcium ions
1996
Sponges are known not to contain muscle and nerve cells. Since sponge cells are characterized by high motility we determined the effect of intracellular calcium ion concentration ([Ca2+]i) on their motility. Addition of the Ca2+ ionophore ionomycin to dissociated cells from the marine sponge Suberites domuncula caused in Ca(2+)-containing artificial seawater (ASW) an increase in motility from 0.2 micron/min (absence of the ionophore) to 3.7 microns/min (presence of ionomycin). When the experiments were performed in Ca(2+)-free medium, no effect of ionomycin could be observed. In parallel experiments the changes of [Ca2+]i using the dye Fura-2 were measured. The experiments revealed that ion…
Use-wear analysis applied in a dissected palimpsest at the Middle Palaeolithic site of El Salt (eastern Iberia): working with lithic tools in a narro…

Los análisis de uso-desgaste son muy útiles para aumentar el conocimiento sobre las dinámicas económicas y de subsistencia llevadas a cabo por los neandertales. En términos generales, los resultados funcionales provienen tradicionalmente del análisis de herramientas pertenecientes a unidades estratigráficas cuya escala temporal se refiere al tiempo geológico. Esto se debe a que muchos yacimientos neandertales son palimpsestos de ocupaciones reiteradas a lo largo del tiempo, que deben ser diseccionadas para acercarnos a la escala temporal humana. En la unidad estratigráfica Xa de El Salt (Alcoi, este de Iberia) se han llevado a cabo estudios arqueoestratigráficos de alta resolución temporal.…
The XENON1T Dark Matter Experiment
2017
The XENON1T experiment at the Laboratori Nazionali del Gran Sasso (LNGS) is the first WIMP dark matter detector operating with a liquid xenon target mass above the ton-scale. Out of its 3.2 t liquid xenon inventory, 2.0 t constitute the active target of the dual-phase time projection chamber. The scintillation and ionization signals from particle interactions are detected with low-background photomultipliers. This article describes the XENON1T instrument and its subsystems as well as strategies to achieve an unprecedented low background level. First results on the detector response and the performance of the subsystems are also presented. © 2017, The Author(s).
Espectro de las manifestaciones orales de VIH/SIDA en la región de Perm (Rusia) e identificación de lesiones orales linguales ulceronecrotizantes ind…
2004
-Objetivo: estudiar la frecuencia y el espectro de las manifestaciones orales de consumidores de drogas infectados por VIH en la región de Perm. -Sujetos: 104 consumidores de droga seropositivos (69 hombres, 35 mujeres; edades desde 15 a 32; 13 co-infectados con virus de la hepatitis) y 13 consumidores de droga con SIDA (7 hombres, 6 mujeres; edades entre 16 y 37; 12 co-infectados con virus de la hepatitis). -Resultados: las formas más frecuentes de lesiones de la mucosa oral en el grupo de pacientes infectados por el VIHcandidiasis (32.7%), lesiones herpéticas (15.4%), queilitis glandular (3.9%), estomatitis aftosa recidivante (2%). La linfadenopatía regional fue observada en el 31% de los…
Hydrogels for Three-Dimensional Ionizing-Radiation Dosimetry
2021
Radiation-sensitive gels are among the most recent and promising developments for radiation therapy (RT) dosimetry. RT dosimetry has the twofold goal of ensuring the quality of the treatment and the radiation protection of the patient. Benchmark dosimetry for acceptance testing and commissioning of RT systems is still based on ionization chambers. However, even the smallest chambers cannot resolve the steep dose gradients of up to 30–50% per mm generated with the most advanced techniques. While a multitude of systems based, e.g., on luminescence, silicon diodes and radiochromic materials have been developed, they do not allow the truly continuous 3D dose measurements offered by radiation-se…
Effet colloide-protecteur d'extraits de parois de levures sur la stabilité tartrique d'une solution hydro-alcoolique modèle
1993
<p style="text-align: justify;">L'effet colloïde-protecteur d'extraits mannoprotéiques de parois de levures vis-à-vis de la précipitation tartrique a été étudié en solution hydroalcoolique, en utilisant un IST mètre (Indice de Stabilité Tartrique).</p><p style="text-align: justify;">Nous avons montré que les deux extraits levuriens inhibaient la cristallisation du bitartrate de potassium au même titre que l'acide métatartrique et la carboxyméthylcellulose, mais à un niveau plus faible. Le niveau de stabilité retenu (ISTC-75) est assuré avec des concentrations par litre de 7,5 mg d'acide métatartrique et de 18 mg de carboxyméthylcellulose. Des concentrations en extraits man…
Analysis of the Potential of an Increase in Yeast Output Resulting from the Application of Additional Process Wastewater in the Evaporator Station
2019
This paper reports the results of an analysis of process wastewater streams in the context of an increase in yeast production. This research is based on the analysis of data from the biggest yeast factory in Europe. The research presented in this paper involves the analysis of the influence of direction of additional wastewater into the evaporator station on yeast production. In the process wastewater, nitrogen is mainly present in organic forms. The analysis reported in this paper involves the concentration of total nitrogen in wastewater streams, as it is the main parameter applied to determine the amount of wastewater that can be applied in agricultural fields. Directing additional waste…

Kulttuuriympäristöt ovat alueita, jotka rakentuvat ajassa ja tilassa ihmisen ja ympäristön välisen toiminnan tuloksena. Kulttuuriympäristöt ovat jatkuvassa kehityksen ja muutoksen tilassa olevia tapahtumaketjuja, joissa maisemat avautuvat ja sulkeutuvat ja joissa uusia rakennuksia pystytetään ja vanhoja joko hylätään, puretaan tai suojellaan. Muuttuvaisuudestaan huolimatta kulttuuriympäristöillä mielletään olevan keskeinen merkitys ihmisen identiteetille ja viihtyvyydelle.[1] Miten ihmiset pystyvät luovimaan tässä muutoksen virrassa ja kiinnittymään ja tuntemaan kuuluvansa omaan elinympäristöönsä? Yhden lähestymistavan edellä esitettyihin kysymyksiin tarjoaa ympäristön kuvalliseen esittämis…
