A concept of orientation is relevant for the passage from Jordan structure to associative structure in operator algebras. The research reported in this paper bridges the approach of Connes for von Neumann algebras and ourselves for C*-algebras in a general theory of orientation that is of geometric nature and is related to dynamics.

We describe the use of singular value decomposition in transforming genome-wide expression data from genes × arrays space to reduced diagonalized “eigengenes” × “eigenarrays” space, where the eigengenes (or eigenarrays) are unique orthonormal superpositions of the genes (or arrays). Normalizing the data by filtering out the eigengenes (and eigenarrays) that are inferred to represent noise or experimental artifacts enables meaningful comparison of the expression of different genes across different arrays in different experiments. Sorting the data according to the eigengenes and eigenarrays gives a global picture of the dynamics of gene expression, in which individual genes and arrays appear to be classified into groups of similar regulation and function, or similar cellular state and biological phenotype, respectively. After normalization and sorting, the significant eigengenes and eigenarrays can be associated with observed genome-wide effects of regulators, or with measured samples, in which these regulators are overactive or underactive, respectively.

Mnt, a tetrameric repressor encoded by bacteriophage P22, uses N-domain dimers to contact each half of its operator site. Experiments with a double mutant and structural homology with the P22 Arc repressor suggest that contacts made by Arg-28 and stabilized by Glu-33 are largely responsible for dimer–dimer cooperativity in Mnt. These dimer–dimer contacts are energetically more important for operator binding than solution tetramerization, which is mediated by an independent C-terminal coiled-coil domain. Indeed, once one dimer of the Mnt tetramer contacts an operator half site, binding of the second dimer occurs with an effective concentration much lower than that expected if both dimers were flexibly tethered. These results suggest that binding of the second dimer introduces some strain into the protein–DNA complex, a mechanism that could serve to limit the affinity of operator binding and to prevent strong binding of the Mnt tetramer to nonoperator sites.

We give conditions that rule out formation of sharp fronts for certain two-dimensional incompressible flows. We show that a necessary condition of having a sharp front is that the flow has to have uncontrolled velocity growth. In the case of the quasi-geostrophic equation and two-dimensional Euler equation, we obtain estimates on the formation of semi-uniform fronts.

A relatively simple definition of a locally compact quantum group in the C*-algebra setting will be explained as it was recently obtained by the authors. At the same time, we put this definition in the historical and mathematical context of locally compact groups, compact quantum groups, Kac algebras, multiplicative unitaries, and duality theory.

The phase transition for turbulent diffusion, reported by Avellaneda and Majda [Avellaneda, M. & Majda, A. J. (1994) Philos. Trans. R. Soc. London A 346, 205-233, and several earlier papers], is traced to a modeling assumption in which the energy spectrum of the turbulent fluid is singularly dependent on the viscosity in the inertial range. Phenomenological models of turbulence and intermittency, by contrast, require that the energy spectrum be independent of the viscosity in the inertial range. When the energy spectrum is assumed to be consistent with the phenomenological models, there is no phase transition for turbulent diffusion.

The first 6 amino acids (NH2-Ser1-Thr2-Lys3-Lys4-Lys5-Pro6) of bacteriophage lambda cI repressor form a flexible arm that wraps around the operator DNA. Homodimeric lambda repressor has two arms. To determine whether both arms are necessary or only one arm is sufficient for operator binding, we constructed heterodimeric repressors with two, one, or no arms by fusing the DNA binding domain of lambda repressor to leucine zippers from Fos and Jun. Although only one arm is visible in the cocrystal structure of the N-domain-operator complex, our results indicate that both arms are required for optimal operator binding and normal site discrimination.

Elevated expression of the marORAB multiple antibiotic-resistance operon enhances the resistance of Escherichia coli to various medically significant antibiotics. Transcription of the operon is repressed in vivo by the marR-encoded protein, MarR, and derepressed by salicylate and certain antibiotics. The possibility that repression results from MarR interacting with the marO operator-promoter region was studied in vitro using purified MarR and a DNA fragment containing marO. MarR formed at least two complexes with marO DNA, bound > 30-fold more tightly to it than to salmon sperm DNA, and protected two separate 21-bp sites within marO from digestion by DNase I. Site I abuts the downstream side of the putative -35 transcription-start signal and includes 4 bp of the -10 signal. Site II begins 13 bp downstream of site I, ending immediately before the first base pair of marR. Site II, approximately 80% homologous to site I, is not required for repression since a site II-deleted mutant (marO133) was repressed in trans by wild-type MarR. The absence of site II did not prevent MarR from complexing with the site I of marO133. Salicylate bound to MarR (Kd approximately 0.5 mM) and weakened the interaction of MarR with sites I and II. Thus, repression of the mar operon, which curbs the antibiotic resistance of E. coli, correlates with the formation of MarR-site I complexes. Salicylate appears to induce the mar operon by binding to MarR and inhibiting complex formation, whereas tetracycline and chloramphenicol, which neither bind MarR nor inhibit complex formation, must induce by an indirect mechanism.

Perylene bisimides (PBIs) are n-type semiconducting and photogenerating materials widely used in a variety of optoelectronic devices. Particularly interesting are PBIs that are simultaneously water-soluble and liquid-crystalline (PBI-W+LC) and, thus, attractive for the development of high-performing easily processable applications in biology and “green” organic electronics. In this work, singular temperatures connected to charge transport mechanism transitions in a PBI-W+LC derivative are determined with high accuracy by means of temperature-dependent photocurrent studies. These singular temperatures include not only the ones observed at 60 and 110 °C, corresponding to phase transition temperatures from crystalline to liquid-crystalline (LC) and from LC to the isotropic phase, respectively, as confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), but also a transition at 45 °C, not observed by DSC. By analyzing the photocurrent dependence simultaneously on temperature and on light intensity, this transition is interpreted as a change from monomolecular to bimolecular recombination. These results might be useful for other semiconducting photogenerating materials, not necessarily PBIs or even organic semiconductors, which also show transport behavior changes at singular temperatures not connected with structural or phase transitions.

La Pharmacopea de la Armada, obra de Leandro de Vega, publicada en 1760 para uso de médicos y cirujanos de los buques y hospitales de la marina española a lo largo del siglo XVIII, está considerada como la primera farmacopea naval española. Su autor la define con un «catálogo de medicamentos pertenecientes a las enfermedades médicas», en definitiva un nomenclátor de fórmulas para la preparación de los medicamentos de mayor utilidad para los navegantes de la época, tanto de uso interno como externo. En el presente artículo se analiza en profundidad esta obra, reconocida su relevancia de fuente primaria, situándola en su contexto histórico, detallando el contenido de sus tratados, así como dando noticia biográfica de su autor e informando de la posición profesional y misión de sus destinatarios.
