Global environmental change has the potential to disrupt well established species interactions, with impacts on nutrient cycling and ecosystem function.On coral reefs, fish living within Lighting the branches of coral colonies can promote coral performance, and it has been hypothesized that the enhanced water flow and nutrients provided by fish to
The Catabolite Activator Protein (CAP) is a showcase example for entropic allostery.For full activation and DNA binding, the SYTRINOL homodimeric protein requires the binding of two cyclic AMP (cAMP) molecules in an anti-cooperative manner, the source of which appears to be largely of entropic nature according to previous experimental studies.We he
In the film manufacturing process, process variables, such as temperature and pressure, are measured and controlled to manage the film properties, such as thickness and optical characteristics.Each film property is regulated by the product specifications, and having all film properties adhere to the specifications is important.In this study, soft s
