Glutathione Transferase A1-1 Catalyzed Conjugation of Polycyclic Aromatic Hydrocarbon Diol-Epoxides with Glutathione
1996
Abstract The glutathione transferase A1-1 (GSTA1-1) isoenzyme catalyzes the formation of GSH-conjugates of the isomeric bay-region diol-epoxides (DEs) of trans-1,2-dihydroxy-3,4-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrochrysene (CDE) and trans-3,4-dihydroxy-1,2-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrodibenz[a,h]anthracene (DBADE) as well as the isomeric fjord-region DEs trans-3,4-dihydroxy-1,2-epoxy-1,2,3,4-tetrahydrobenzo[c]phenanthrene (BPhDE) and trans-9,10-dihydroxy-11,12-epoxy-9,10,11,12-tetrahydro-benzo[c]chrysene (BCDE) although with an approx. 20-fold variation in catalytic efficiency. With the anti-diastereomers and the syn-diastereomers of BPhDE and BCDE, GSTA1-1 demonstrated a significant preference for the enan…
IDENTIFICATION OF LECTINS IN THE KINETIDS OFTETRAHYMENA PYRIFORMIS
1997
Previously we described lectin-like molecules in the ciliate Tetrahymena pyriformis; by application of synthetic neoglycoconjugates it is now shown that T. pyriformis contains considerable amounts of both a beta-D-glucose- and a lactose-specific lectin. No evidence for the presence of alpha-D-mannose-, alpha-D-galactose- or of alpha-L-fucose-specific lectins could be obtained. The two lectins, identified in T. pyriformis, are associated with the kinetids. During cell division the lectins disappear or become masked in the fission furrow. Therefore, we assume that these lectins are involved in the organization of the distribution pattern of the kinetids during cell division perhaps due to lec…
Fast Matrix Multiplication
2015
Until a few years ago, the fastest known matrix multiplication algorithm, due to Coppersmith and Winograd (1990), ran in time O(n2.3755). Recently, a surge of activity by Stothers, Vassilevska-Williams, and Le~Gall has led to an improved algorithm running in time O(n2.3729). These algorithms are obtained by analyzing higher and higher tensor powers of a certain identity of Coppersmith and Winograd. We show that this exact approach cannot result in an algorithm with running time O(n2.3725), and identify a wide class of variants of this approach which cannot result in an algorithm with running time $O(n^{2.3078}); in particular, this approach cannot prove the conjecture that for every e > 0, …
On a class of languages with holonomic generating functions
2017
We define a class of languages (RCM) obtained by considering Regular languages, linear Constraints on the number of occurrences of symbols and Morphisms. The class RCM presents some interesting closure properties, and contains languages with holonomic generating functions. As a matter of fact, RCM is related to one-way 1-reversal bounded k-counter machines and also to Parikh automata on letters. Indeed, RCM is contained in L-NFCM but not in L-DFCM, and strictly includes L-CPA. We conjecture that L-DFCM subset of RCM
On a conjecture about class numbers of totally positive quadratic forms in totally real algebraic number fields
1979
Zusammenfassung Mittels einer fruheren Klassenzahlabschatzung fur quadratische Formen wird als Verallgemeinerung einer Vermutung von Siegel bewiesen, das Geschlechter totalpositiver Formen mit mindestens drei Variablen und vorgegebener Klassenzahl nur in endlich vielen totalreellen algebraischen Zahlkorpern vorkommen. Bei binaren Formen folgt mit einer neuen Klassenzahlformel aus der verallgemeinerten Riemannschen Vermutung dieselbe Aussage. Ohne Annahme einer Hypothese gilt, das die Anzahl der totalreellen Korper eines festen Grades mit totalpositiven binaren Formen vorgegebener Klassenzahl endlich ist.
On deformation of Poisson manifolds of hydrodynamic type
2001
We study a class of deformations of infinite-dimensional Poisson manifolds of hydrodynamic type which are of interest in the theory of Frobenius manifolds. We prove two results. First, we show that the second cohomology group of these manifolds, in the Poisson-Lichnerowicz cohomology, is ``essentially'' trivial. Then, we prove a conjecture of B. Dubrovin about the triviality of homogeneous formal deformations of the above manifolds.
Some contributions to the theory of transformation monoids
2019
The aim of this paper is to present some contributions to the theory of finite transformation monoids. The dominating influence that permutation groups have on transformation monoids is used to describe and characterise transitive transformation monoids and primitive transitive transformation monoids. We develop a theory that not only includes the analogs of several important theorems of the classical theory of permutation groups but also contains substantial information about the algebraic structure of the transformation monoids. Open questions naturally arising from the substantial paper of Steinberg [A theory of transformation monoids: combinatorics and representation theory. Electron. J…
Project Management Information Systems (PMISs): A Statistical-Based Analysis for the Evaluation of Software Packages Features
2021
Project Managers (PMs) working in competitive markets are finding Project Management Information Systems (PMISs) useful for planning, organizing and controlling projects of varying complexity. A wide variety of PMIS software is available, suitable for projects differing in scope and user needs. This paper identifies the most useful features found in PMISs. An extensive literature review and analysis of commercial software is made to identify the main features of PMISs. Afterwards, the list is reduced by a panel of project management experts, and a statistical analysis is performed on data acquired by means of two different surveys. The relative importance of listed features is properly comp…
Generalized Braid Groups and Mapping Class Gropus
1997
Given a chord system of D2, we associate a generalized braid group, a surface and a homomorphism from this braid group to the mapping class group of the surface. We disprove a conjecture stated in an article by Perron and Vannier by showing that generally this homomorphism is not injective.
