BID: a novel BH3 domain-only death agonist

The BCL-2 family of proteins consists of both antagonists (e.g., BCL-2) and agonists (e.g., BAX) that regulate apoptosis and compete through dimerization. The BH1 and BH2 domains of BCL-2 are required to heterodimerize with BAX and to repress cell death; conversely, the BH3 domain of BAX is required to heterodimerize with BCL-2 and to promote cell death. To extend this pathway, we used interactive cloning to identify Bid, which encodes a novel death agonist that heterodimerizes with either agonists (BAX) or antagonists (BCL-2). BID possesses only the BH3 domain, lacks a carboxy-terminal signal-anchor segment, and is found in both cytosolic and membrane locations. BID counters the protective effect of BCL-2. Moreover, expression of BID, without another death stimulus, induces ICE-like proteases and apoptosis. Mutagenesis revealed that an intact BH3 domain of BID was required to bind the BH1 domain of either BCL-2 or BAX. A BH3 mutant of BID that still heterodimerized with BCL-2 failed to promote apoptosis, dissociating these activities. In contrast, the only BID BH3 mutant that retained death promoting activity interacted with BAX, but not BCL-2. This BH3-only molecule supports BH3 as a death domain and favors a model in which BID represents a death ligand for the membrane-bound receptor BAX.

采用重量法在电子天平上研究了Ｃ２Ｈ４和Ｏ２单组份在５Ａ、１３Ｘ、丝光沸石和碳分子筛等不同吸附剂上的吸附平衡性质和扩散动力学性质。结果表明，在沸石类吸附剂上，Ｃ２Ｈ４的平衡吸附量远大于Ｏ２的平衡吸附量，Ｃ２Ｈ４的吸附扩散速率也大于Ｏ２的扩散速率；在碳分子筛吸附剂上Ｃ２Ｈ４的平衡吸附量大于Ｏ２的平衡吸附量，但Ｏ２的吸附扩散速率远大于Ｃ２Ｈ４的扩散速率，其扩散系数是Ｃ２Ｈ４的２３９倍。单柱评价结果表明，Ｃ２Ｈ４－Ｏ２混合组份通过该碳分子筛吸附剂时，Ｏ２的破点时间长，Ｃ２Ｈ４的纯度可达１００％。加压有利于选择吸附Ｏ２，而且加压吸附、常压脱附再生性能好。该碳分子筛是脱除高浓度乙烯中少量氧气的理想吸附剂。

Estimating point-to-point and point-to-multipoint traffic matrices: an information-theoretic approach

Traffic matrices are required inputs for many IP network management tasks, such as capacity planning, traffic engineering, and network reliability analysis. However, it is difficult to measure these matrices directly in large operational IP networks, so there has been recent interest in inferring traffic matrices from link measurements and other more easily measured data. Typically, this inference problem is ill-posed, as it involves significantly more unknowns than data. Experience in many scientific and engineering fields has shown that it is essential to approach such ill-posed problems via "regularization". This paper presents a new approach to traffic matrix estimation using a regularization based on "entropy penalization". Our solution chooses the traffic matrix consistent with the measured data that is information-theoretically closest to a model in which source/destination pairs are stochastically independent. It applies to both point-to-point and point-to-multipoint traffic matrix estimation. We use fast algorithms based on modern convex optimization theory to solve for our traffic matrices. We evaluate our algorithm with real backbone traffic and routing data, and demonstrate that it is fast, accurate, robust, and flexible.

Electromagnetic reflection and transmission from a new version of Cantor fractal nonlinear multilayers

In this paper, we put forward a new version of Cantor fractal multilayers, which are nonlinear medium, and investigate its properties of reflection and transmission when a plane wave is obliquely incident upon it. A new exact self-similarity algorithm that make use of the self -similarity of these structure are developed. The results for different stages of fractal growth within the first-order nonlinear approximation are found. Compared with the traditional chain-matrix approach, the scheme provides the reflection and transmission coefficients for any stage (S) with much less calculation time on a personal computer.
