    Description: In vitro PA28 binds and activates proteasomes. It is shown here that mice with a disrupted PA28b gene lack PA28a and PA28b polypeptides, demonstrating that PA28 functions as a hetero-oligomer in vivo. Processing of antigenic epitopes derived from exogenous or endogenous antigens is altered in PA28-/- mice. Cytotoxic T lymphocyte responses are impaired, and assembly of immunoproteasomes is greatly inhibited in mice lacking PA28. These results show that PA28 is necessary for immunoproteasome assembly and is required for efficient antigen processing, thus demonstrating the importance of PA28-mediated proteasome function in immune responses.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Preckel, T -- Fung-Leung, W P -- Cai, Z -- Vitiello, A -- Salter-Cid, L -- Winqvist, O -- Wolfe, T G -- Von Herrath, M -- Angulo, A -- Ghazal, P -- Lee, J D -- Fourie, A M -- Wu, Y -- Pang, J -- Ngo, K -- Peterson, P A -- Fruh, K -- Yang, Y -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1999 Dec 10;286(5447):2162-5.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉The R.

    Description: Mice lacking in CD8 were generated from homologous recombination in embryonal stem cells at the CD8 locus and bred with the experimental allergic encephalomyelitis (EAE)-susceptible PL/JH-2u through four backcross generations to investigate the role of CD8+ T cells in this model of multiple sclerosis. The disease onset and susceptibility were similar to those of wild-type mice. However, the mutant mice had a milder acute EAE, reflected by fewer deaths, but more chronic EAE, reflected by a higher frequency of relapse. This suggests that CD8+ T lymphocytes may participate as both effectors and regulators in this animal model.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Koh, D R -- Fung-Leung, W P -- Ho, A -- Gray, D -- Acha-Orbea, H -- Mak, T W -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1992 May 22;256(5060):1210-3.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Department of Medical Biophysics, University of Toronto, Princess Margaret Hospital, Canada.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/1589800" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: HLA-DM (DM) facilitates peptide loading of major histocompatibility complex class II molecules in human cell lines. Mice lacking functional H2-M, the mouse equivalent of DM, have normal amounts of class II molecules at the cell surface, but most of these are associated with invariant chain-derived CLIP peptides. These mice contain large numbers of CD4+ T cells, which is indicative of positive selection in the thymus. Their CD4+ cells were unresponsive to self H2-M-deficient antigen-presenting cells (APCs) but were hyperreactive to wild-type APCs. H2-M-deficient APCs failed to elicit proliferative responses from wild-type T cells.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Fung-Leung, W P -- Surh, C D -- Liljedahl, M -- Pang, J -- Leturcq, D -- Peterson, P A -- Webb, S R -- Karlsson, L -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Mar 1;271(5253):1278-81.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉R.

    Description: The field-effect mobility in thin-film transistors based on alpha-sexithiophene (alpha-6T) and related materials displays a temperature dependence that is remarkably nonmonotonic. Above a transition temperature TT (specific to a given material) the transport is thermally activated, whereas below TT there is a very steep enhancement of the mobility. In the activated regime, the results are well described by the theoretical predictions for small polaron motion made by Holstein in 1959. An analysis of the transistor characteristics shows that the hopping transport in these devices is intrinsic. Performance limits for devices based on alpha-6T and related materials were established; these limits point to the strong possibility that better molecular materials for transistor applications may be designed from first principles.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Torsi -- Dodabalapur -- Rothberg -- Fung -- Katz -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1996 Jun 7;272(5267):1462-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Bell Laboratories, Lucent Technologies, 600 Mountain Avenue, Murray Hill, NJ 07974, USA.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8662468" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: The CD8 alpha cytoplasmic domain associates with p56lck, a nonreceptor protein-tyrosine kinase. The biological relevance of CD8 alpha-Lck association in T cell development was tested with transgenic mice generated to express a CD8 alpha molecule with two amino acid substitutions in its cytoplasmic domain, which abolishes the association of CD8 alpha with Lck. The CD8 alpha mutant was analyzed in a CD8-/- background and in the context of the transgenic 2C T cell receptor. The development and function of CD8+ T cells in these mice were apparently normal. Thus, CD8 alpha-Lck association is not necessary for positive selection, negative selection, or CD8-dependent cytotoxic function.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Chan, I T -- Limmer, A -- Louie, M C -- Bullock, E D -- Fung-Leung, W P -- Mak, T W -- Loh, D Y -- AI 155322-13/AI/NIAID NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 1993 Sep 17;261(5128):1581-4.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Author address: 〈/span〉Howard Hughes Medical Institute, Department of Medicine, Genetics, and Molecular Microbiology, Washington University School of Medicine, St. Louis, MO 63110.〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Record origin:〈/span〉 〈a href="http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/8372352" target="_blank"〉PubMed〈/a〉

    Description: Type 2C protein phosphatases (PP2Cs) are vitally involved in abscisic acid (ABA) signaling. Here, we show that a synthetic growth inhibitor called pyrabactin functions as a selective ABA agonist. Pyrabactin acts through PYRABACTIN RESISTANCE 1 (PYR1), the founding member of a family of START proteins called PYR/PYLs, which are necessary for both pyrabactin and ABA signaling in vivo. We show that ABA binds to PYR1, which in turn binds to and inhibits PP2Cs. We conclude that PYR/PYLs are ABA receptors functioning at the apex of a negative regulatory pathway that controls ABA signaling by inhibiting PP2Cs. Our results illustrate the power of the chemical genetic approach for sidestepping genetic redundancy.〈br /〉〈br /〉〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2827199/" target="_blank"〉〈img src="https://static.pubmed.gov/portal/portal3rc.fcgi/4089621/img/3977009" border="0"〉〈/a〉   〈a href="https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2827199/" target="_blank"〉This paper as free author manuscript - peer-reviewed and accepted for publication〈/a〉〈br /〉〈br /〉〈span class="detail_caption"〉Notes: 〈/span〉Park, Sang-Youl -- Fung, Pauline -- Nishimura, Noriyuki -- Jensen, Davin R -- Fujii, Hiroaki -- Zhao, Yang -- Lumba, Shelley -- Santiago, Julia -- Rodrigues, Americo -- Chow, Tsz-Fung F -- Alfred, Simon E -- Bonetta, Dario -- Finkelstein, Ruth -- Provart, Nicholas J -- Desveaux, Darrell -- Rodriguez, Pedro L -- McCourt, Peter -- Zhu, Jian-Kang -- Schroeder, Julian I -- Volkman, Brian F -- Cutler, Sean R -- 01GM59138/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM060396/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01 GM060396-08/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- R01GM060396/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- U54GM074901/GM/NIGMS NIH HHS/ -- New York, N.Y. -- Science. 2009 May 22;324(5930):1068-71. doi: 10.1126/science.1173041.

    Description / Table of Contents: Riassunto In questo lavoro si applica la teoria della matriceU per dedurre un'espressione esplicita per lo spettro d'energia di eccitazione dell'4He liquido. Usando un modello per il potenziale chimico efficace per l'4He si è in grado di produrre uno spettro di eccitazione molto simile a quello osservato. L'inverso della massa efficace, cioè 1/m *, è ottenuto in funzione del momentok. Si trova che il rapporto tra massa efficace e la massa dell'atomo di elio ak=2.0 Å−1, cioè vicino alla profondità del rotore, èm * (k=2.0 Å−1)/m He= =0.18298, mentre quello ak=1.0 Å−1 èm * (k=1.0 Å−1)/m he=−0.17103. Il risultato teorico dello spettro di eccitazione è coerente con i dati sperimentali.
    Abstract: Резюме В этой статье мы применяем теориюU-матрицы для вывода явного выражения для энергетического спектра возбуждений Зидкого4He. Используя модель для эффективного химического потенциала для4He, мы воспроизводим спектр возбуждений который оказывается очень близким к зкспериментально наблюдаемому. Вычисляется обратная величина эффективной массы, т.е. 1/m *, как функция импульсаk. Получено отношение эффективной массы к массе атома гелия приk=2.0 Å−1, которое составляетm * (k=2.0 Å−1)/m He=0.18298, тогда как это отношение приk=1.0 Å−1 равноm * (k=1.0 Å−1)/m He=−0.17103. Теоретический результат для спектра возбужений согласуется с имеющимися экспериментальными данными.
    Notes: Summary In this paper, we apply theU-matrix theory to derive an explicit expression for the excitation energy spectrum of liquid4He. Using a model for the effective chemical potential for4He, we are able to produce an excitation spectrum which is very close to the observed one. The inverse of the effective mass,i.e. 1/m *, is obtained as a function of momentumk. The ratio between the effective mass and the mass of helium atom atk=2.0 Å−1,i.e. near the roton depth, is found to bem *(k=2.0 Å−1)/m He=0.18298, while the ratio atk=1.0 Å−1 ism *(k=1.0 Å−1)/m He=−0.17103. The theoretical result of the excitation spectrum is consistent with observational data.

    Description / Table of Contents: Riassunto Impiegando la teoria della matriceU nella forma presente, abbiamo presentato una teoria microscopica di un sistema interagente diN bosoni a temperatura non nulla. L'hamiltoniana include un termine che descrive l'influenza esterna, un termine per un'interazione a 2 particelle e une che riguarda l'interazione di tipo dipolare. Per studiare lo stato fondamentale dell'4He liquido s'include solo l'interazione a 2 particelle. Basandoci su dati di scattering, abbiamo dedotto la funzione potenziale a 2 particelle. Con quella, calcoliamo numericamente la distribuzione dell'impulso aT=1.1K per diversi gruppi di parametri. Si mostra che le curve teoriche sono in buon accordo con i risultati osservati. Le corrispondenti curve del fattore di struttura del liquido si adattano benissimo ai dati misurati e il risultato migliore per l'energia dello stato fondamentale è − 7.12K.
    Abstract: Резюме Используь теориюU-матрицы, мы предлагаем микроскопическую теорию взаимодеюствующейN-бозонной системы при ненулевых температурах. Гамильтониан включает член, описывающий внешнее влияние, член двух-частичного взаимодействия и член, относящийся к дипольному типу взаимодействия. При исследовании основного состояния шидкого4He учитяватся только двух-частичное взаимодействие. Основываясь на данных по рассеянию, мы выводим двух-частичную потенциальную функцию. Мы численно определяем распределение по импульсам приT=1.1K для некоторых систем параметров. Показывается, что теоретические кривые согласуются с наблюденными результатами. Соответст вующий структурный фактор зидкости хорошо согласуется с экспериментальными данными. Полученная величина энергии основного состояния составляет −7.12 K.
    Notes: Summary Employing theU-matrix theory in the present form we have presented a microscopic theory of an interactingN-boson system at nonzero temperature. The Hamiltonian includes a term describing the external influence, a term for a two-particle interaction and one pertaining to the dipole-type interaction. To study the ground state of liquid4He, only the two-particle interaction is included. Based on scattering data, we have deduced the two-particle potential function. With that we calculate numerically the momentum atT=1.1 K for several sets of parameters. It is shown that the theoretical curves agree well with the observed results. The corresponding liquid-structure-factor curves fit the measured data very well and the best result for the ground-state energy is −7.12K.

    Notes: In the past, when thermal diffusivity measurement of materials were carried out by photoacoustic signal detection using transducers, only the piezoelectric or the pyroelectric property of the transducers was considered. In case the transducer exhibits both piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties, one of these properties had been suppressed during the experimentation, obviously more errors are introduced this way. We use polyvinylidene difluoride (PVDF) as the detector for thermal waves. Since PVDF has both piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties, we show in this article that the signal detected by the transducer is a sum of both the piezoelectric and pyroelectric effects. Silicon semiconductor samples are considered in this article to compare the theory with experimental results. Although both the piezoelectric and pyroelectric properties are found in the resultant signal at all the frequency ranges considered, we find that when the samples are thermally thick, the piezoelectric contribution to the detected signal is slightly more than the pyroelectric contribution and vice versa when the sample is thermally thin. This behavior of the combined signal can be explained by the fact that in an optically opaque solid heat is generated very close to the surface, following absorption. This heat is communicated to the PVDF as long as the thermal diffusion length is larger than the thickness (i.e., the sample is thermally thin). At high frequencies the solid becomes thermally thick and the pyroelectric nature decreases as both the optical and thermal contact of the sample with the detector diminishes. Since both the properties are considered in our theory, we can measure the thermal diffusivity of a general sample without "artificial suppression." Moreover, from our analysis we can deduce the physical thickness of the sample from the critical frequency, which is the frequency at which the sample changes from thermally thin to thermally thick. This transition is clearly evident in the amplitude curve as a change in slope is detected at the critical frequency. © 1999 American Institute of Physics.
