Influence of traditions

The research in the field of cementitious materials has brought towards many non-traditional binder systems. One of these systems, a ternary binder composed of calcium aluminate cement (CAC), ordinary Portland cement (OPC), and calcium sulfate (C$Hx), called ettringite binder, offers a possibility of very rapid development in mechanical strength.

The results of the analysis displayed that the model was acceptable which explained that variable such as environment, discount price, payment procedures and facility affect impulsive buying in traditional markets. Thus, it may be concluded that impulsive buying behavior in modern markets and traditional markets is similar. When discount prices contributed the greatest influence on the traditional markets, in modern markets, the impact was even more profound.

The focus of this research is to identify the important steps and considerations that influence Australian fund manager’s property allocation decisions, and to suggest ways to improve institutional allocation decisions towards property investments, which traditionally offers stable, income focused returns. This is important for funding the retirement of Australia’s growing and aging population, and to combat the continued effects of the recent Global Financial Crisis on the equities and bond markets.

Heat shock transcription factors (HSFs) are characterized by their ability, upon activation, to bind to heat shock response elements (HSE) present in the promoter of their target genes. HSE are composed of inverted repeats of the pentamer nGAAm. In this study, we compare the embryonic HSF2 protein, purified from F9 embryonal carcinoma cells tumor, and thein vitro synthesized HSF2. We show that the context of HSF2 synthesis influences its thermosensitivity and DNA-binding properties.

Glycosylatedpolyenemacrolide antibiotics, as nystatins and amphotericins, are amphiphilic structures known to exert antifungal activity by disrupting the fungal cell membrane, leading to leakage of cellular materials, and cell death. This membrane disruption is strongly influenced by the presence and the exact nature of the membrane sterols.

The thermal unfoldingofmyosinsubfragment 1 (S1) cleaved by trypsin was studied by differential scanning calorimetry. In the absence of nucleotides, trypsin splits the S1 heavy chain into three fragments (25, 50, and 20 kDa). This cleavage has no appreciable influence on the thermal unfolding of S1 examined in the presence of ADP, in the ternary complexes of S1 with ADP and phosphate analogs, such as orthovanadate (Vi) or berylliumfluoride (BeFx), and in the presence of F-actin.

The beneficial influence of dietary curcumin, capsaicin and their combina-tion on the susceptibility of low-density lipoprotein (LDL) to oxidation was examined in an animal study. Individually, both dietary curcumin and capsaicin significantly inhibited thein vivo iron-induced LDL oxidation, as well as copper-induced oxidation of LDLin vitro. The protective effect of the combination of curcumin and capsaicin on LDL oxidation was greater than that of individual compounds.

Plant lipoxygenases (LOXs) are a class of dioxygenases which display diverse functions in several physiological processes such as growth, development and response to biotic and abiotic stresses.Even though LOXs have been characterized from several plant species, the physiological role of seed LOXs is still unclear.With the aim to better clarify the occurrence of LOXs and their influence on hazelnut seed quality, we carried out the biochemical and molecular characterization of the main LOX isoforms expressed during seed development....

Although alkaline phosphatase (APase) fromEscherichia colicrystallizes as a symmetric dimer, it displays deviations from Michaelis–Menten kinetics, supported by a model describing a dimeric enzyme with unequal subunits [Orha-novic´ S., Pavela-Vrancˇicˇ M. and Flogel-Mrsˇic´ M. (1994) Acta. Pharm.44, 87–95]. The possibility, that the observed asymmetry could be attributed to negative cooperativity in Mg2+ binding, has been examined. The influence of the metal ion content on the catalytic properties of APase from E. colihas been examined by kinetic analyses. ...

cAMP receptor protein (CRP), allosterically activated by cAMP, regulates the expression of several genes inEscheri-chia coli. As binding of cAMP leads to undefined conform-ational changes in CRP, we performed a steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence study to showhow the binding of the ligand influences the structure and dynamics of the protein. We used CRP mutants containing a single trypto-phan residue at position 85 or 13, and fluorescently labeled with 1,5-I-AEDANS attached toCys178.

The influence of temperature on cytochromec oxidase (CCO) catalytic activity was studied in the temperature range 240–308 K. Temperatures below 273 K required the inclusion of the osmolyte ethylene glycol. For steady-state activity between 278 and 308 K the activation energy was 12 kcalÆmol )1 ; the molecular activity or turnover number was 12 s )1 at 280K in the absence of ethylene glycol. CCO activity was studied between 240and 277 K in the presence of ethylene glycol.

The mineralization process was initiated by the formation of inorganic phosphate,arising from the hydrolysis of a substrate by GPI-bALP. Several minerali-zation media containing different substrates were analysed after an incubation time ranging from 1.5 h to 144 h.

Studies on horseradish peroxidase C and other haem peroxidases have been carried out on selected mutants in the distal haem cavity providing insight into the functional importance of the distal residues. Recent work has dem-onstrated that proximal structural features can also exert an important influence in determining the electronic structure of the haem pocket.
