  • Atomic Physics
CONT

The simplest version of supersymmetry, which should be manifest at the GUT scale(~1016 GeV) and below, has as its key prediction that for every kind of particle that we have there should be an as-yet-undiscovered "supersymmetric partner particle" with the same quantum numbers and interactions except that the spin of this hypothetical partner particle differs from that of the known particle by half a unit. For example, the partner of the photon(spin 1) is the "photino"(spin ½), and the partner of the electron(spin ½) is the "selectron"(spin 0).

English

Subject field(s)
  • Biological Sciences
  • Biotechnology
DEF

A constant of great practical importance since it is equal to the substrate concentration required to reach half the maximum velocity. This constant of a substrate is therefore, a measure of the affinity of the enzyme for that substrate : the lower the constant, the higher the affinity. The constant possesses the unit gram molecule per liter(M) and it is independent of enzyme concentration. Kinetically, it is related to a number of rate constants. Values are usually in the range of 10-[supercript2] M to 10[ Supercript 6) M.

CONT

A landmark paper has been published by Winter et al. (1982) on the redesigning of enzyme structure by site directed mutagenesis.... This is a method for systematically replacing (during biosynthesis) an amino acid at a particular site with another amino acid, and observing the consequences. In the quoted text, a reduction in enzymic activity was observed that was largely due to a lowered Michaelis constant (Km) for the ATP required to join the tyrosine to the transfer RNA.

OBS

The Michaelis constant determined for immobilized enzymes is necessarily only an apparent constant (K’m) and should be distinguished clearly from the constant normally determined with the soluble enzyme.

OBS

The term Km should read Km.

French

Domaine(s)
  • Sciences biologiques

DEF

Constante de cinétique enzymatique représentant la concentration de substrat pour laquelle la vitesse d'activité enzymatique est la moitié de la vitesse maximale. Elle s'exprime en mole/litre et définit bien l'affinité de l'enzyme pour son substrat. Elle varie avec chaque enzyme et suivant les conditions expérimentales (pH, nature du substrat).

CONT

La constante de Michaelis d'une enzyme est d'autant plus basse que l'enzyme est plus active, puisqu'elle exprime approximativement l'inverse de l'affinité du substrat pour l'enzyme. [...] La connaissance de la Km d'une enzyme est importante car une enzyme à Km élevée ne pourra agir avec efficacité dans la cellule que si le substrat s'y trouve à concentration élevée.

OBS

Le terme Km s'écrit Km.

A typical multi-head breaker is a rubber-tired, self-propelled unit which carries 1, 000 to 1, 500 pound hammers mounted laterally in pairs. Half of the hammers are in a forward row and the remainder diagonally offset in a rear row so that there is continuous breakage from side to side. Each pair of hammers is attached to a hydraulic lift cylinder which operates as an independent unit. Each unit can develop between 1, 000 and 8, 000 foot pounds of energy depending upon drop height selected. The units can cycle at a rate of 30 to 35 impacts per minute. The typical machine is eight foot wide and carries twelve hammers eight inches in width. An extension wing, carrying two 1, 500 pound hammers, can be added to each side for a total breaking width of up to 13 feet. Pavement breaking can be as narrow as 2. 67 feet or increased in increments up to 13 feet. Typical production rates per machine are 6000-8000 square yards per day.

DIDO Experiment Container is essentially a box with a side length of 150 mm. Design philosophy of DIDO experiment foreseen an "all inside" approach, so(at this moment) the experiment container is a mere box with no windows or openings, or relevant external features. DIDO EC is intended as a structural part for the inside experiment; only mechanical, electrical and data interfaces are required to connect DIDO EC with GLAD facility. The box is assembled as one piece but the topside is removable to have access to DIDO experiment. In this way the topside component works as a cover plate. The EC is made by(TBD) material and to meet safety requirements EC' s corners are slightly rounded, materials must not be flammable and machined with non-toxic surface treatment. Cover plate is connected with the box through screws. The bottom side, instead, compose the "first plate" of DIDO experiment, housing tanks and pumping system. Another plate placed about half height provides a "second plate" for DIDO cell and relative optics, laser unit and CCD camera.

OBS

Objectives of the experiment DIDO ... is the measurement of diffusion coefficients in a three-component solution. It’s impossible to carry out these measurements on Earth because in a diffusion boundary, when the transport is promoted by at least two independent driving forces, convention instabilities may arise, called "fingers" and "overstability."

Rice(Oryza sativa L.) production in the Everglades Agricultural Area(EAA) of southern Florida has been expanding steadily since 1978(Coale et al., 1993). In 1992, 9000 ha of rice were planted on organic soils(Histosols) in the EAA, and half of that hectarage was ratoon cropped(Coale et al., 1993). Ratoon cropping, a second harvest of rice from tillers produced from auxiliary buds on remaining stubble following main-crop harvest, allows for more efficient utilization of the long, wet, subtropical growing season of the EAA and, thus, increases rice production per unit area.
