Lexicografía, traducción y terminología: relaciones a partir de Della Geometria di Orontio Fineo tradotte da Cosimo Bartoli (Venetia, 1587)
2014
Los libros matemáticos compuestos por el matemático francés Oronce Finé gozaron de una importante difusión en el siglo XVI, como evidencian las traducciones de su obra sobre geometría, óptica, geografía y astronomía: Protomathesis. Opus varium. Nuestro interés, en esta ocasión, se centra en Della Geometria, el segundo de los libros del volumen Opere di Orontio Fineo del Delfinato, divise in cinque parti, traducida por Cosimo Bartoli (Venetia, Francesco Franceschi Senese, 1587). Realizamos un estudio terminológico comparado entre el texto fuente y esta traducción italiana, lo que nos permitirá observar los procesos de convergencias léxicas propios de este léxico de origen grecolatino, por un…
Lexicografía, traducción y terminología: relaciones a partir de Della Geometria di Orontio Fineo tradotte da Cosimo Bartoli (Venetia, 1587)
2014
This article is the English version of “Lexicografía, traducción y terminología: relaciones a partir de Della Geometria di Orontio Fineo tradotte da Cosimo Bartoli (Venetia, 1587)” by Francisco Javier Sánchez Martín. It was not published on the print version of MonTI for reasons of space. The online version of MonTI does not suffer from these limitations, and this is our way of promoting plurilingualism. The mathematical books composed by the French mathematician Oronce Finé gained a great prestige in the sixteenth century, as evidenced by the translations of his work about Geometry, Optics, Geography and Astronomy, Protomathesis: Opus varium. Now, our interest is focused on Della Geometria…
Nonsense-mediated mRNA decay controls the changes in yeast ribosomal protein pre-mRNAs levels upon osmotic stress.
2013
The expression of ribosomal protein (RP) genes requires a substantial part of cellular transcription, processing and translation resources. Thus, the RP expression must be tightly regulated in response to conditions that compromise cell survival. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae cells, regulation of the RP gene expression at the transcriptional, mature mRNA stability and translational levels during the response to osmotic stress has been reported. Reprogramming global protein synthesis upon osmotic shock includes the movement of ribosomes from RP transcripts to stress-induced mRNAs. Using tiling arrays, we show that osmotic stress yields a drop in the levels of RP pre-mRNAs in S. cerevisiae cell…
Modification of the proteolytic fragmentation pattern upon oxidation of cysteines from ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase.
2003
The proteolytic susceptibility of the native CO 2 -fixing photosynthetic enzyme ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase/oxygenase (EC 4.1.1.39, Rubisco) has been shown to increase in vitro after oxidative treatments that affect cysteine thiols. A limited incubation of oxidized (pretreated with the disulfide cystamine) Rubisco from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii with subtilisin or proteinase K generated fragments of molecular mass about 53 kDa (band I in SDS-PAGE) and 47 kDa (band II) derived from the large subunit (55 kDa) of the enzyme. In contrast, proteolysis of the reduced Rubisco (pretreated with the free thiol cysteamine) produced only the 53 kDa band. The same fragmentation pattern was repr…
Between Scylla and Charibdis: eIF2α kinases as targets for cancer chemotherapy
2011
[EN] The eIF2 alpha kinases integrate translation initiation rates with nutrient availability, thus allowing cells to adapt to nutrient scarcity. Recent evidence has uncovered new functions of these kinases in tumour cell biology, ranging from regulation of cell cycle progression, maintenance of genome stability, control of apoptosis, and cell survival under nutrient stress and hypoxia. Accordingly, active eIF2 alpha kinases modulate the antineoplasic activity of several antitumour drugs, either by exacerbating their cytotoxic effect or by promoting chemoresistance. Understanding of eIF2 alpha kinases molecular roles may provide mechanistic insights into how tumour cells sense and adapt to …
The Popularization of Economics through the Biblioteca dell’Economista: analysing Amari’s translation of the High Prise of Bullion (1810) by D. Ricar…
2012
Between 1850 and 1868, the Sicilian economist Francesco Ferrara edited the first two series of the Biblioteca dell’Economista (BE). This is a collection of economic treatises that were translated from English, French and German into Italian by Ferrara and his assistants (among whom was the scholar Emerico Amari) to popularize the international economic science in the Italian peninsula. The paper deals with Amari’s translation of the High Price of Bullion (David Ricardo 1810) entitled Dell’alto prezzo dei metalli preziosi and published in BE II vol. VI (1857). An analysis of the lexical and stylistic differences between source and target text (Malmkjaer 2004) points out the translation strat…
Common variants conferring risk of schizophrenia
2009
Schizophrenia is a complex disorder, caused by both genetic and environmental factors and their interactions. Research on pathogenesis has traditionally focused on neurotransmitter systems in the brain, particularly those involving dopamine. Schizophrenia has been considered a separate disease for over a century, but in the absence of clear biological markers, diagnosis has historically been based on signs and symptoms. A fundamental message emerging from genome-wide association studies of copy number variations (CNVs) associated with the disease is that its genetic basis does not necessarily conform to classical nosological disease boundaries. Certain CNVs confer not only high relative ris…
Abstract – Using Parallel Corpora for Translation Activities in L2 Medical English Undergraduate Teaching, with Specific Reference to Italian Sports …
2021
English is the international language of science and, as such, it is also the international language of medicine. L2 English undergraduates do not generally have particular difficulties in translating from English into their mother tongue; by contrast, they do not perform very well when asked to translate into English. The aim of this report is to show the results of a study obtained by using parallel corpora in scientific English classes in the Italian sports sciences study course of the University of Palermo. The students were provided with a corpus of English texts taken from a well-known medical text with pedagogical purposes, and their corresponding Italian translations, which were car…

Parent of origin effects in attention/deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD): analysis of data from the international multicenter ADHD genetics (IMAGE…
2008
Contains fulltext : 71540.pdf (Publisher’s version ) (Closed access) There are conflicting reports suggesting that the parental origin of transmitted risk alleles may play a role in the etiology of attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD). A recent report by Hawi and colleagues observed a generalized paternal over-transmission of alleles associated with ADHD. This was not replicated in more recent studies. Using data from a large multicenter study we examined the overall and gene-specific parent of origin effect in 554 independent SNPs across 47 genes. Transmission disequilibrium and explicit parent of origin test were performed using PLINK. Overall parent of origin effect was tested…
