Empirical Model of Poynting Flux Derived from Fast Data and a Cusp Signature
Empirical models of the Poynting flux and particle kinetic energy flux, associated with auroral processes, have been constructed using data from the FAST satellite and are available online.

Gene-Environment Interaction Models to Unmask Susceptibility Mechanisms in Parkinson’s Disease
Here we describe the use of a neurotoxin, 1-methyl-4-phenyl-1,2,3,6-tetrahydropyridine (MPTP), which produces a nigrostriatal lesion to elucidate the distinct contributions of LOX isozymes to neurodegeneration related to PD.

Non-Invasive Recognition of Poorly Resolved Integrated Circuit Elements
We present a non-invasive method for recognition of components in a digital CMOS integrated circuit (IC). We use a confocal infrared laser scanning optical microscope to collect multimodal images through the backside of the IC.

Synthesis for Polynomial Lasso Programs
We present a method for the synthesis of polynomial lasso programs. These programs consist of a program stem, a set of transitions, and an exit condition, all in the form of algebraic assertions (conjunctions of polynomial equalities).

Addition of Escherichia coli K–12 Growth-Observation and Gene Essentiality Data to the EcoCyc database
We have integrated data on the growth or nongrowth of E. coli K-12 obtained from published observations using a variety of individual media and from high-throughput phenotype microarrays into the EcoCyc database.

Design of a Serum Stability Tag for Bioactive Peptides
Here we explored a possibility of designing a serum stability tag made of natural amino acids. We observed that a diproline motif (-Pro-Pro-) shows remarkable stability against serum endopeptidases.

Update on Mixed-Salt Technology Development for CO2 Capture from Post-Combustion Power Stations
The new mixed-salt technology combines the well-known ammonia and potassium carbonate technologies with improved reaction kinetics and reduced emissions.

Large-Scale Analogical Reasoning
In this paper, relying on a well-curated biology KB, we present a specific implementation of comparison questions inspired by a general model of analogical reasoning.

Comparative Molecular Field Analysis of Fenoterol Derivatives Interacting with an Agonist-Stabilized Form of the β(2)-Adrenergic Receptor
The β2-adrenergic receptor (β2-AR) agonist [3H]-(R,R′)-methoxyfenoterol was employed as the marker ligand in displacement studies measuring the binding affinities (Ki values) of the stereoisomers of a series of 4′-methoxyfenoterol analogs in which the length of the alkyl substituent at α′ position was varied from 0 to 3 carbon atoms.

The Metacyc Database of Metabolic Pathways and Enzymes and the Biocyc Collection of Pathway/Genome Databases
MetaCyc (MetaCyc.org) is a universal database of metabolic pathways and enzymes from all domains of life. The pathways in MetaCyc are curated from the primary scientific literature, and are experimentally determined small-molecule metabolic pathways.
