Controlling metamaterial resonances via dielectric and aspect ratio effects
(AIP Publishing, 2010-11-09)
We study ways to enhance the sensitivity and dynamic tuning range of the fundamental inductor-capacitor (LC) resonance in split ring resonators (SRRs) by controlling the aspect ratio of the SRRs and their substrate thickness. ...
LacSubPred: Predicting subtypes of Laccases, an important lignin metabolism-related enzyme class, using in silico approaches
(BioMed Central, 2014-10-21)
Background: Laccases (E.C. 1.10.3.2) are multi-copper oxidases that have gained importance in many industries such as biofuels, pulp production, textile dye bleaching, bioremediation, and food production. Their usefulness ...

Expected number of real zeros for random orthogonal polynomials
(Cambridge University Press (CUP), 2015-07-05)
We study the expected number of real zeros for random linear combinations of orthogonal polynomials. It is well known that Kac polynomials, spanned by monomials with i.i.d. Gaussian coefficients, have only (2/π + o(1))logn ...
Structure of the unique SEFIR domain from human interleukin 17 receptor A reveals a composite ligand-binding site containing a conserved a-helix for Act1 binding and IL-17 signaling
(International Union of Crystallography, 2014)
Interleukin 17 (IL-17) cytokines play a crucial role in mediating inflammatory and autoimmune diseases. A unique intracellular signaling domain termed SEFIR is found within all IL-17 receptors (IL-17Rs) as well as the key ...
Genome-wide identification of the miRNAome in response to salinity stress in date palm (Phoenix dactylifera L.)
(Frontiers Media, 2015-11-05)
Although date palm is relatively salt-tolerant, little is known about the underlying molecular mechanisms that contribute to its salt tolerance. Only recently, investigators have uncovered microRNA-mediated post-transcriptional ...
Risk assessment of flavivirus transmission in Namibia
(Elsevier BV, 2014-05-25)
The role of arboviruses causing acute febrile illness in sub-Saharan Africa is receiving more attention. Reports of dengue in tourists were published nearly 10 years ago in Namibia, but the current epidemiology of arboviruses ...
Myceliophthora thermophila M77 utilizes hydrolytic and oxidative mechanisms to deconstruct biomass
(SpringerOpen, 2016-11-02)
Biomass is abundant, renewable and useful for biofuel production as well as chemical priming for plastics and composites. Deconstruction of biomass by enzymes is perceived as recalcitrant while an inclusive breakdown ...
Gender, social norms, and household production in Burkina Faso
(University of Chicago Press, 2013)
Empirical studies of intra-household allocation has revealed that, in many instances, gender is an important determinant in the allocation of resources within the household. Yet, within the theoretical literature, why ...
