tRNA Modification and Genetic Code Variations in Animal Mitochondria by Kimitsuna Watanabe, Shin-ichi Yokobori

“…In animal mitochondria, six codons have been known as nonuniversal genetic codes, which vary in the course of animal evolution. They are UGA (termination codon in the universal genetic code changes to Trp codon in all animal mitochondria), AUA (Ile to Met in most metazoan mitochondria), AAA (Lys to Asn in echinoderm and some platyhelminth mitochondria), AGA/AGG (Arg to Ser in most invertebrate, Arg to Gly in tunicate, and Arg to termination in vertebrate mitochondria), and UAA (termination to Tyr in a planaria and a nematode mitochondria, but conclusive evidence is lacking in this case). …”

The Novelties of the Law of Ukraine “On Limited Liability and Additional Liability Companies” by R. S. Lukashov

“…Regarding the novelties of regulation of the activity of limited liability companies, the author emphasizes the following positive aspects of the Law of Ukraine “On Limited Liability and Additional Liability Companies”: the number of participants in the LLC was lifted; the concept of "corporate agreement" is fixed; the only reason for the establishment of the LLC is the decision of its founders; minimize the list of information that must be displayed in the charter of LLC; included in the Law of the provisions of Chapter V “Substantial and Interest-Related party transactions”; a special chapter was introduced, which regulates the issues of creation and termination of the LLC (Chapter VI “Separation and Termination of the Company”); provides for the appearance of a local act on the regulation of corporate relations in the LLC - the agreement on the termination of the company; the procedure for setting up one or more new partnerships by transferring to it (them) a part of the assets, liabilities and liabilities of an existing limited liability company is regulated in detail.…”

Effect of Unilateral Shoulder Disorder on the Stance Phase of Human Gait by Martin Missmann, Gerald Aron, Thomas Stöggl, Michael Pirchl, Vincent Grote, Michael J. Fischer

“…We determined significant differences of the duration of the loading response (p = 0.021), midstance (p = 0.033), and the terminal stance phase (p = 0.019) between the shoulder group and the control group, with a shorter loading response phase and a longer terminal stance phase of the affected side in the shoulder group. …”

Optimal Sensor Communications in Presence of Transmission Delays and Bandwidth Limitations by M. M. Share Pasand, M. Montazeri

“…In a distributed sensor (and actuator) network, several sensors may be lumped to a single transmitter or communicate via a remote terminal unit. Due to bandwidth limitations in the network, the transmitter/remote terminal should decide on the communication sequence according to which it sends sensor data. …”

An Analytically Modified Finite Difference Scheme for Pricing Discretely Monitored Options by Guo Luo, Min Huang

“…Finite difference methods are commonly used in the pricing of discretely monitored exotic options in the Black–Scholes framework, but they tend to converge slowly due to discontinuities contained in terminal conditions. We present an effective analytical modification to existing finite difference methods that greatly enhances their performance on discretely monitored options with non-smooth terminal conditions. …”
