The type VI secretion system (T6SS) is a widespread protein secretion apparatus used by Gram-negative bacteria to deliver toxic effector proteins into adjacent bacterial or host cells.Here, we uncovered a role in interbacterial competition for the two T6SSs encoded by the marine pathogen Vibrio alginolyticus.Using comparative proteomics and genetic
The complex natural and geological structure of cities affects buildings’ spatial structure in terms of the forms of spatial configuration adopted in the design.Spatial structure affects buildings’ space performance in several aspects, such as privacy and accessibility, which are the most significant indicators of residential houses’ function
The use of biotechnology to explore low-grade ore deposits and mining tailings is one of the most promising alternatives to reduce environmental impacts and costs of copper extraction.However, such technology still depends on improvements to be fully applied in Brazil under industrial scale.In this way, the bioleaching, by Acidithiobacillus ferroox
Copies are defined by their relation to an original.The understanding and evaluation of this relationship has been changing over time.A main argument of this article is that originals and copies are Stencil and Cookie Cutter Sets phenomena with no "natural" or essential meaning outside of their specific historical settings.The idea to be explored i
Abstract A constraint of vanishing energy-momentum tensor is motivated by a variety of perspectives on quantum gravity.We demonstrate in a concrete example how Toddler Pillow this constraint leads to a metric-independent theory in which quantum gravity emerges as a nonperturbative artifact of regularization-scale physics.We analyze a scalar theory
