Activation of fatty acids by acyl-CoA synthetase enzymes is required for de novo lipid synthesis, fatty acid catabolism, and remodeling of biological membranes. Human long-chain acyl-CoA synthetase member
6, ASCL6, is a form present in the plasma membrane of cells. Splicing events affecting the amino-terminus and alternative
motifs near the ATP-binding site generate different isoforms of ACSL6. 相似文献
The issue of natural radioactivity in groundwater is reviewed, with emphasis on those radioisotopes which contribute in a significant way to the overall effective dose received by members of the public due to the intake of drinking water originating from groundwater systems. The term 'natural radioactivity' is used in this context to cover all radioactivity present in the environment, including man-made (anthropogenic) radioactivity. Comprehensive discussion of radiological aspects of the presence of natural radionuclides in groundwater, including an overview of current regulations dealing with radioactivity in drinking water, is provided. The presented data indicate that thorough assessments of the committed doses resulting from the presence of natural radioactivity in groundwater are needed, particularly when such water is envisaged for regular intake by infants. They should be based on a precise determination of radioactivity concentration levels of the whole suite of radionuclides, including characterisation of their temporal variability. Equally important is a realistic assessment of water intake values for specific age groups. Only such an evaluation may provide the basis for possible remedial actions. 相似文献
Let p be a prime and let $\varphi\in\mathbb{Z}_{p}[x_{1},x_{2},\ldots, x_{p}]$ be a symmetric polynomial, where $\mathbb {Z}_{p}$ is the field of p elements. A sequence T in $\mathbb {Z}_{p}$ of length p is called a φ-zero sequence if φ(T)=0; a sequence in $\mathbb {Z}_{p}$ is called a φ-zero free sequence if it does not contain any φ-zero subsequence. Motivated by the EGZ theorem for the prime p, we consider symmetric polynomials $\varphi\in \mathbb {Z}_{p}[x_{1},x_{2},\ldots, x_{p}]$, which satisfy the following two conditions: (i) every sequence in $\mathbb {Z}_{p}$ of length 2p?1 contains a φ-zero subsequence, and (ii) the φ-zero free sequences in $\mathbb {Z}_{p}$ of maximal length are all those containing exactly two distinct elements, where each element appears p?1 times. In this paper, we determine all symmetric polynomials in $\mathbb {Z}_{p}[x_{1},x_{2},\ldots, x_{p}]$ of degree not exceeding 3 satisfying the conditions above. 相似文献
Optimality conditions for weak efficient, global efficient and efficient solutions of vector variational inequalities with constraints defined by equality, cone and set constraints are derived. Under various constraint qualifications, necessary optimality conditions for weak efficient, global efficient and efficient solutions in terms of the Clarke and Michel–Penot subdifferentials are established. With assumptions on quasiconvexity of constraint functions sufficient optimality conditions are also given. 相似文献
In this paper, we establish some quotient calculus rules in terms of contingent derivatives for the two extended-real-valued functions defined on a Banach space and study a nonsmooth multiobjective fractional programming problem with set, generalized inequality and equality constraints. We define a new parametric problem associated with these problem and introduce some concepts for the (local) weak minimizers to such problems. Some primal and dual necessary optimality conditions in terms of contingent derivatives for the local weak minimizers are provided. Under suitable assumptions, sufficient optimality conditions for the local weak minimizers which are very close to necessary optimality conditions are obtained. An application of the result for establishing three parametric, Mond–Weir and Wolfe dual problems and several various duality theorems for the same is presented. Some examples are also given for our findings.
A combined surface activation and “grafting to” strategy was developed to convert divinylbenzene particles into weak cation exchangers suitable for protein separation. The initial activation step was based on plasma modification with bromoform, which rendered the particles amenable to further reaction with nucleophiles by introducing Br to a surface content of 11.2 atom‐%, as determined by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Grafting of thiol‐terminated glydicyl methacrylate telomers to freshly plasma activated surfaces was accomplished without the use of added initiator, and the grafting was verified both by reduction in bromine content and the appearance of sulfur‐carbon linkages, showing that the surface grafts were covalently bonded. Following grafting the attached glydicyl methacrylate telomer tentacles were further modified by a two‐step procedure involving hydrolysis to 2,3‐hydroxypropyl groups and conversion of hydroxyl groups to carboxylate functionality by succinic anhydride. The final material was capable of baseline separating four model proteins in 3 min by gradient cation exchange chromatography in a fully aqueous eluent. 相似文献
In this paper we investigate contingent derivatives of set-valued maps and their lower and upper semidifferentiability properties. We provide also some calculus rules for these derivatives in infinite dimensional spaces. The concept of contingent derivatives is then applied to produce several necessary and sufficient conditions for vector optimization problems with set-valued objectives.This paper was written when the author was at the University of Erlangen-Nurnberg under a grant of the Alexander von Humboldt Foundation.On leave from the Institute of Mathematics, Hanoi, Vietnam. 相似文献
In convex optimization the significance of constraint qualifications is evidenced by the simple duality theory, and the elegant subgradient optimality conditions which completely characterize a minimizer. However, the constraint qualifications do not always hold even for finite dimensional optimization problems and frequently fail for infinite dimensional problems. In the present work we take a broader view of the subgradient optimality conditions by allowing them to depend on a sequence of ε-subgradients at a minimizer and then by letting them to hold in the limit. Liberating the optimality conditions in this way permits us to obtain a complete characterization of optimality without a constraint qualification. As an easy consequence of these results we obtain optimality conditions for conic convex optimization problems without a constraint qualification. We derive these conditions by applying a powerful combination of conjugate analysis and ε-subdifferential calculus. Numerical examples are discussed to illustrate the significance of the sequential conditions. 相似文献
