Characterization of the autoantigen La (SS-B) as a dsRNA unwinding enzyme
1997
During the analysis of the La (SS-B) autoantigen for catalytic activities an ATP-dependent double-stranded RNA unwinding activity was detected. Both native and recombinant La proteins from different species displayed this activity, which could be inhibited by monospecific anti-La antibodies. La protein was able to melt dsRNA substrates with either two 3'-overhangs or a single 3'- and a 5'-overhang. Double-stranded RNAs with two 5'-overhangs were not unwound, indicating that at least one 3'-overhang is required for unwinding. Sequence elements of the La protein that might be involved in dsRNA unwinding, such as an evolutionarily conserved putative ATP-binding motif and an element that is hom…
A single tube PCR assay for detecting viruses and their recombinants that cause tomato yellow leaf curl disease in Mediterranean basin
2007
Tomato yellow leaf curl disease (TYLCD) is well known in Mediterranean countries, where it has been causing severe losses in tomato crops for decades. Until recently, two viruses (with several isolates) in the genus Begomovirus, family Geminiviridae, have been associated with the epidemics: Tomato yellow leaf curl virus (TYLCV) and Tomato yellow leaf curl Sardinia virus (TYLCSV). However, recombinants between these, such as Tomato yellow leaf curl Malaga virus (TYLCMalV), are spreading, and new methods for detecting all viruses present in the region are needed. By considering all DNA sequences available of viruses causing TYLCD in the Mediterranean basin, a PCR/RFLP protocol was developed t…
Nullità va cercando, ch’è sí cara come sa chi per lei legittimità rifiuta: spunti su alcuni comportamenti attizi tra amministrazione e giurisdizione
2020
The work focuses on the qualification, jointly with the procedural consequences on the relevant trial, of the regime of some administrative decision as to whether they are total irrelevant in law or rather they do have some sort of efficacy
Maltrato y enfermedad mental. Estudio de personas con enfermedad mental, víctimas de maltrato
2011
Se realiza un trabajo de investigación sobre la victimización de personas con enfermedad mental, desde la perspectiva de que este colectivo es con frecuencia víctima de maltrato, a pesar de los prejuicios y el estigma que pende sobre él. Dada su especial vulnerabilidad social, los y las profesionales que atienden a esta población tienen la responsabilidad de visibilizar este fenómeno, y validar los instrumentos de diagnóstico que utilizan como útiles para detectar maltrato. The thesis involved research on the victimization of people with mental illness from the angle of this group often being the victim of abuse, despite the prejudice and stigma that hangs over it. Given its special social …
Conflicts in workplace in technology-mediated communication
2017
Konfliktit työyhteisön teknologiavälitteisessä vuorovaikutuksessa. Tämän tutkielman tavoitteena oli kuvata työntekijöiden havaintoja konflikteista, jotka ilmenivät työpaikkojen teknologiavälitteisessä vuorovaikutuksessa. Työntekijöiden havaintoihin pohjaten tutkielma pyrki kasvattamaan ymmärrystä työelämässä ja teknologiavälitteisessä vuorovaikutuksessa ilmenevistä konflikteista etsimällä vastauksia siihen, millaisia syitä, seurauksia ja lopputuloksia konflikteilla on työyhteisöjen teknologiavälitteisessä vuorovaikutuksessa. Konfliktien ja niiden hallintakeinojen ymmärtäminen on tärkeää työyhteisöille ja niissä toimiville työyhteisön jäsenille. Tutkielman menetelmänä käytettiin teoriasidonn…

2017
The current and incoming editors in chief present the articles of this current issue of Human Technology. Additionally, they discuss the human component of recent technological macrotrends and the journal’s editorial interests in responding to and exploring them. During Editor in Chief Pertti Hurme’s 3-year term, research reflecting a wide range of topics has been published in Human Technology. This online journal, proudly open-access since its beginning, and will continue to invite innovative and interesting manuscripts for open-access publishing under its new editor in chief, Jukka Jouhki.
Acompañamiento social en clave local. Evaluación de una metodología de intervención con los y las ACL en medio abierto de la provincia de Valencia
2021
En las nuevas sociedades, el delito forma parte del espacio cotidiano, trascendiendo los antiguos límites de la exclusión y de jóvenes con mayor dificultad de inserción social. Una extensión del riesgo que afecta y vulnera a los y las jóvenes, y que ha contribuido en la diversificación de los y las adolescentes en conflicto con la ley, coexistiendo dos perfiles diferenciados socialmente, los procedentes de contextos de exclusión y los adaptados socialmente; exigiendo una reflexión sobre la intervención llevada a cabo con ellos. En el presente trabajo doctoral se analiza la intervención realizada desde el medio abierto con estos adolescentes en conflicto con la ley en la provincia de Valenci…

From ‘no dogs here!’ to ‘beware of the dog!’ : restricting dog signs as a reflection of social norms
2019
Signs in public space reflect ‘normalcy’ in a community. The authors ask what restricting signs tell us about a society? In order to explore the system and variation in the ways dog signs manifest different norms and control, they compare two different data sets: dog signs in a Northern European town, Jyväskylä in Finland, and two Eastern European villages in Romania. They apply a qualitative methodology based on visual communication, geosemiotics and linguistic landscape studies. The focus of the article is on the resources of addressing and the visual semiotics of the image. The investigated communities seem to create a complementary distribution of what they regulate that is also displa…
