Baudelaire's Influence on Duo Duo's Poetry through Chen Jingrong, a Chinese Woman Poet Translating from French.
2012
As a woman poet, Chen Jingrong’s productions encompassed the whole 20th century: of particular interest are her poetry translations from the French language. Thanks to her translation work, valuable understanding of Charles Baudelaire’s poetry was made available in China, which influenced the Chinese contemporary poet, Duo Duo, when he first started writing poetry during his youth. This paper tries to depict the importance of this contribution of Chen Jingrong and its effect on the process of renovation of the contemporary poetic scene in China.
Charming Connections: Chen Jingrong's Translations as a Factor of Poetic Influence
2015
L'articolo mette il luce l'influenza che la poesia francese ha nel processo creativo della poetessa Chen Jingrong come derivazione della sua pratica traduttiva dal francese al cinese. The paper describes the influence French poetry has on the poetic production of the woman poet Chen Jingrong depending on her practice as translator from French into Chinese.
A New Extraordinary Dream: A Study of Late-Qing Foreign Fiction Translations from the Perspective of Titology
2022
In the early stage of the introduction of foreign fiction to Chinese readers, newspapers and magazines played a pioneering role in the development of the discourse on the social role of fiction in modern Chinese society. This is particularly true for Shanghai newspaper Shenbao, which introduced a large number of Western novels, trying to fuel readers’ curiosity while avoiding any possible discomfort caused by foreignising or destabilising content. As a privileged type of paratext and the first element with whom readers came into contact, titles and their translations were key elements for promoting the new literary section and increasing daily sales. By adopting the theoretical framework of…
Chromatin dynamics of the developmentally regulated P. lividus neural alpha tubulin gene
2011
Over 40 years ago, Allfrey and colleagues (1964) suggested that two histone modifications, namely acetylation and methylation, might regulate RNA synthesis. Nowadays it is universally accepted that activation of gene expression strictly depends on enzymatic mechanisms able to dynamically modify chromatin structure. Here, using techniques including DNaseI hypersensitive site analysis, chomatin immunoprecipitation and quantitative PCR analysis, we have analyzed the dynamics of histone post-translation modifications involved in developmentally/spatially controlled activation of the sea urchin PlTalpha2 tubulin gene. We have demonstrated that only when the PlTalpha2 core promoter chromatin is a…
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Hot1p regulated gene YHR087W (HGI1) has a role in translation upon high glucose concentration stress.
2012
Abstract Background While growing in natural environments yeasts can be affected by osmotic stress provoked by high glucose concentrations. The response to this adverse condition requires the HOG pathway and involves transcriptional and posttranscriptional mechanisms initiated by the phosphorylation of this protein, its translocation to the nucleus and activation of transcription factors. One of the genes induced to respond to this injury is YHR087W. It encodes for a protein structurally similar to the N-terminal region of human SBDS whose expression is also induced under other forms of stress and whose deletion determines growth defects at high glucose concentrations.

La problemática textual del comentario de Galeno al tratado hipocrático Sobre los humores
2014
The commentary to the Hippocratic treatise De humoribus, which was accepted as an authentic Galenic work till recent times, uses to be nowadays assigned to a mid-XVIth. century author of false ancient manuscripts, the Greek Andreas Darmarios. In spite of this, the text presents several kinds of problems that suggest a careful revisiting of the question. This article presents some of such problems and looks for a different explanation by means of the interaction of the languages involved in the transmission of the text.
Context-free Languages
1988
In this chapter we shall define a class of rewriting systems called context-free grammars. The left-hand side of a rule in a context-free grammar consists of a single symbol, so that symbols are rewritten “context-freely”. Context-free grammars are of central importance to us because they define the class of context-free languages, the parsing of which is the subject of this book. In this chapter we shall consider some structural properties of context-free grammars which are of importance in parsing. Also, a basic method for recognizing context-free languages will be given.
Learning Molecular Classes from Small Numbers of Positive Examples Using Graph Grammars
2021
We consider the following problem: A researcher identified a small number of molecules with a certain property of interest and now wants to find further molecules sharing this property in a database. This can be described as learning molecular classes from small numbers of positive examples. In this work, we propose a method that is based on learning a graph grammar for the molecular class. We consider the type of graph grammars proposed by Althaus et al. [2], as it can be easily interpreted and allows relatively efficient queries. We identify rules that are frequently encountered in the positive examples and use these to construct a graph grammar. We then classify a molecule as being conta…
Substrate determinants for cleavage in cis and in trans by the hepatitis C virus NS3 proteinase
1995
Processing of the hepatitis C virus polyprotein is accomplished by a series of cotranslational and posttranslational cleavages mediated by host cell signalases and two virally encoded proteinases. Of these the NS3 proteinase is essential for processing at the NS3/4A, NS4A/4B, NS4B/5A, and NS5A/5B junctions. Processing between NS3 and NS4A occurs in cis, implying an intramolecular reaction mechanism, whereas cleavage at the other sites can also be mediated in trans. Sequence analysis of the amino termini of mature cleavage products and comparisons of amino acid residues around the scissile bonds of various hepatitis C virus isolates identified amino acid residues which might contribute to su…
Molecular Diagnostics: Innovative Technologies for Clinical and Translational Research
2021
In recent years, cancer patients’ treatment has profoundly changed due to a better comprehension of the biological processes underlying tumor development and progression. Several tumors are defined as “oncogene addicted” meaning that they are strictly dependent on oncogene activation for their own survival. This discovery has indeed led the way to the development of target therapies that are able to specifically kill cancer cells sparing normal cells from toxicity. For these reasons, nowadays, treatment decision is strictly dependent on the molecular characterization of the tumor that can be achieved through different technologies. Within this chapter, we will discuss the main technologies …
