In recent years, tourist accommodation establishments have been growing in both quantity and quality, making an important contribution to the development of tourism products, socio-economic development in local. Expected to 2020, Vietnam's economy will continue to witness the boom of the accommodation service business with more than 20 million foreign visitors visiting and the outstanding growth of the hotel service industry.

Severe air pollution in Vietnam's tourism areas has become a significant economic issue in recent years. While many studies have found a link between population exposure to air pollution and poor health outcomes, short-term exposure to air pollutants in high-pollution zones can result in acute health consequences; thus, poor air quality jeopardizes visitors' health and well-being and threatens the tourism industry's sustainability.

In the context of the increasing global demand for sustainable energy development, the solution of using cementbased materials to develop batteries for energy storage has enormous potential, but this topic is still quite new to engineers and scientists in the construction industry. This study aims to systematically provide the basic principles as well as the current approaches and technical challengesin the development of batteries using cement-based materials.

Antimicrobial resistance is an emerging challenge for health personnel and researchers. In such scenario, alternative strategies targeting novel ways to kill or inhibit growth of microbes are need of the hour. Antimicrobial peptide can be a promising candidate to deal with this crisis. Extracellular matrix protein vitronectin (Vn) is recently being established as a bactericidal agent against certain microbes. Caprine Vn has got few structural alterations as compare to human Vn.

Biotherapeutics (BTs), one of the fastest growing classes of drug molecules, offer several advantages over the traditional small molecule pharmaceuticals because of their relatively high specificity, low off-target effects, and biocompatible metabolism, in addition to legal and logistic advantages. However, their clinical utility is limited, among other things, by their high immunogenic potential and/or variable therapeutic efficacy in different patient populations.

Understanding the genetic complexity of traits is an important objective of small grain temperate cereals yield and adaptation improvements. Bi-parental quantitative trait loci (QTL) linkage mapping is a powerful method to identify genetic regions that co-segregate in the trait of interest within the research population. However, recently, association or linkage disequilibrium (LD) mapping using a genome-wide association study (GWAS) became an approach for unraveling the molecular genetic basis underlying the natural phenotypic variation.

The Central Statistics Office has registered increased availability in part-time courses in Ireland over recent years. This study aims to investigate the motivators driving part-time study and the impact studying part-time has on professional and personal lives of full-time employees in Ireland. Utilising a qualitative research approach, data was collected using open ended, semi-structured interviews on six desirable participants and examined using thematic analysis. Extracted information was interpreted and discussed.

In recent years, legislative and market requirements have driven the need to reduce fuel consumption while meeting increasingly stringent exhaust emissions. This trend has dictated increasing complexity in automotive engines and new approaches to engine design. A key research objective for the automotive engineering community has been the potential combination of gasoline-engine specific power with diesel-like engine efficiency in a cost-competitive, production-feasible power train.

In this tutorial I will introduce ‘learning to rank’, a machine learning technology on constructing a model for ranking objects using training data. I will first explain the problem formulation of learning to rank, and relations between learning to rank and the other learning tasks. I will then describe learning to rank methods developed in recent years, including pointwise, pairwise, and listwise approaches.

Although highly controversial just a few years ago, the idea that G-pro-tein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) may undergo homo-oligomerization or hetero-oligomerization has recently gained considerable attention. The recognition that GPCRs may exhibit either dimeric or oligomeric structures is based on a number of different biochemical and biophysical approaches.

Recent and increasing use of computational tools in the field of nicotinic receptors has led to the publication of several models of ligand–receptor interactions. Thesemodels are all basedon the crystal structure at 2.7 A˚ resolutionof aprotein related to the extracellular N-terminus of nicotinic acetyl-choline receptors (nAChRs), the acetylcholine binding pro-tein. In the absence of any X-ray or NMR information on nAChRs, this new structure has provided a reliable alter-native to study the nAChR structure....

Using thein situ liver model system, we have recently shown that, after cholera toxin binding to hepatic cells, cholera toxin accumulates in a low-density endosomal compartment, and then undergoes endosomal proteoly-sis by the aspartic acid protease cathepsin-D [Merlen C, Fayol-Messaoudi D, Fabrega S, El Hage T, Servin A, Authier F (2005)FEBS J272, 4385– 4397]. Here, we have used a subcellular fractionation approach to address the in vivo compartmentalization and cytotoxic action of cholera toxin in rat liver parenchyma....

The functional and structural characterization of G-protein-coupled recep-tors (GPCRs) still suffers from tremendous difficulties during sample preparation. Cell-free expression has recently emerged as a promising alter-native approach for the synthesis of polytopic integral membrane proteins and, in particular, for the production of G-protein-coupled receptors.

Over the years, several studies have been performed to analyse plant–patho-gen interactions. Recently, functional genomic strategies, including proteo-mics and transcriptomics, have contributed to the effort of defining gene and protein function and expression profiles. Using these ‘omic’ approaches, pathogenicity- and defence-related genes and proteins expressed during phytopathogen infections have been identified and enor-mous datasets have been accumulated.

ACTH-stimulated aldosterone secretion can be inhibited by atrio-natri-uretic peptide⁄cGMP. The mechanism behind this modulation has been reported to involve cGMP-dependent activation of phosphodiesterase 2 (PDE2) and hydrolysis of cAMP. Recently it was reported that activation of cGMP-dependent protein kinase II (cGKII) stimulated aldosterone secretion in rat zona glomerulosa cells.

d-Amino acid oxidase (DAAO) has recently become of interest as a biocat-alyst for industrial applications and for therapeutic treatments. It has been used in gene-directed enzyme prodrug therapies, in which its production of H2O2 in tumor cells can be regulated by administration of substrate. This approach is limited by the locally low O2 concentration and the high Km for this substrate.

The recent discovery of the genetic causes for Parkinson’s disease (PD) is fruitful; however, the continuing revelation of PD-related genes is rapidly outpacing the functional characterization of the gene products. Although the discovery of multiple PD-related genes places PD as one of the most complex multigenetic diseases of the brain, it will undoubtedly facilitate the unfolding of a central pathogenic pathway and an understanding of the eti-ology of PD.

We prove that a nonrenormalizable smooth unimodal interval map with critical order between 1 and 2 displays decay of geometry, by an elementary and purely “real” argument. This completes a “real” approach to Milnor’s attractor problem for smooth unimodal maps with critical order not greater than 2. 1. Introduction The dynamical properties of unimodal interval maps have been extensively studied recently. A major breakthrough is a complete solution of Milnor’s attractor problem for smooth unimodal maps with quadratic critical points. ...
