FORMATION OF A SMALL RIBONUCLEOPROTEIN PARTICLE BETWEEN TAT PROTEIN AND TRANS-ACTING RESPONSE ELEMENT IN HUMAN IMMUNODEFICIENCY VIRUS-INFECTED CELLS

1991

The trans-acting response element (TAR) within the long terminal repeat of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) is present in all 5' termini of HIV mRNAs and is recognized by the viral Tat protein. Now we describe that the 59-nucleotide-long TAR-RNA exists as a ribonucleoprotein particle in polysomal and heterogeneous nuclear RNP fractions of HIV-1-infected HeLa-T4+ cells. Applying an immunoprecipitation technique this Tat.TAR complex could be isolated from total cell extracts as well as from polysomal or heterogeneous nuclear RNP fractions. The chain length and the identity of the TAR-RNA were established by RNase protection assays while the Tat protein was confirmed by Western blotting tech…

Conjugated Oligomers with Terminal Donor–Acceptor Substitution

2005

Conjugated oligomers represent a prominent class of compounds from a viewpoint of their theory, synthesis, and applications in materials science. Push-pull substitution with an electron donor D at one end of the conjugation and an electron acceptor A at the other end results in them having outstanding optical and electronical properties. This Review highlights fundamental synthetic strategies for the preparation of such oligomers with n repeat units (n=1, 2, 3, 4, ..) and the rules that govern their linear and nonlinear optical properties (absorption, frequency doubling and tripling). The unification of chemical, physical, and theoretical aspects with an interdisciplinary image of this clas…

ChemInform Abstract: Catalytic Asymmetric Conjugate Addition of Terminal Alkynes to β-Trifluoromethyl α,β-Enones.

2014

The first enantioselective conjugate alkynylation of β-trifluoromethyl α,β-enones (II) using terminal alkynes (I) and a taniaphos-Cu(I) complex as catalyst is described.

Which are the communication styles of anti-tobacco spots that most impress adolescents?

2019

Abstract Objectives To evaluate emotions and opinions of Italian adolescents aged 13-18 years old about different anti-tobacco spots delivered by the mass media campaigns over the world. Methods A multicenter cross-sectional study was conducted. Italian students from different regions were enrolled. A video that collected 7 anti-tobacco spots from all over the world. The spots describe the tobacco dependence, the health damages and the tobacco components using different communication styles (funny, scientific, dramatic, comedians, shocking, and sad). Information on age, gender, smoking status of family and peers were gathered. Descriptive and univariate analysis of emotional and cognitive r…

Geometrical and conformational preferences of the 9‐fluorenylmethoxycarbonyl‐amino moiety

2004

Structural parameters, originating from x-ray crystallographic data, have been compiled for 13 derivatives of amino acids, peptides and related compounds, which contain a total of 14 Fmoc-NH- moieties. For these moieties, molecular geometries and conformations--described by the omegao, theta1, theta2 and theta3' torsion angles--were analysed and compared with the corresponding parameters for the Z-NH- and Boc-NH-moieties (290 and 553, respectively). To gain a deeper insight into the conformational features of the Fmoc-NH- moiety, ab initio free molecule calculations were performed for fully relaxed minima. Also the potential energy surface as a function of the torsion angles (theta3', theta…

Semi-terminal continua in homogeneous spaces

2016

A semi-terminal continuum Y in a space X is defined by the condition that no two disjoint subcontinua of X intersect both Y and X-Y. Though numerous obvious examples of such continua can be found in arcs, trees and tree-like continua, these examples are related to the non-homogeneity of the space, and having semi-terminal continua in a homogeneous continuum is counter-intuitive. Recently, a large collection of homogeneous spaces with semi-terminal, non-terminal subcontinua has been found. This paper is devoted to studying these spaces and the general structure of homogeneous continua related to the presence of semi-terminal subcontinua.

A mate to die for? A model of conditional monogyny in cannibalistic spiders.

2012

Monogynous males in various species actively limit themselves to mating with a single female in their lifetime. Whereas previous models have considered monogyny as an obligate mating strategy, here we explore the potential of monogyny to evolve as a context-specific (conditional) behavior. Using a state-dependent dynamic game model based on the biology of the cannibalistic spider Argiope bruennichi, we confirm that conditional monogyny can evolve under broad conditions, including an even sex ratio. We predict that males should make a terminal investment when mating with large, virgin females, especially if population density is low and the encounter occurs late in the season. We encourage e…
