The Role of Deubiquitinating Enzymes in Synaptic Function and Nervous System Diseases by Jennifer R. Kowalski, Peter Juo

“…While some DUBs counter the action of specific ubiquitin ligases by removing ubiquitin and editing ubiquitin chains, other DUBs function more generally to maintain the cellular pool of free ubiquitin monomers. The importance of DUB function at the synapse is underscored by the association of specific mutations in DUB genes with several neurological disorders. …”

Female and Male auto- and heterostereotypes of Russian and Belarusian youth by M. M. Karnialovich, V. I. Kazarenkov

“…Content features and modality (emotional coloring) of male and female auto- and heterostereotypes were revealed using a free associative experiment. The content and structure of male and female auto- and heterostereotypes that exist in the ordinary consciousness of modern youth have been determined and analysed. …”

The physics of meaning: More than inhuman? by Hartley John

“…The ambition of this paper is to say that if “cultural science” accepts the need to rethink culture along scientific rather than just critical lines, then at the same time physics must rethink its own commitment to “culture-free” methodology. That has only yielded what we might call “meaningless universe theory,” without addressing ways that physics as a discourse is strongly marked by culture, with the usual signs of gender, race, and hegemony present in its methods. …”

SBT Approach towards Analog Electronic Circuit Fault Diagnosis by V. Manikandan, N. Devarajan

“…The simulation-before-test (SBT) diagnosis approach proposed in this write up basically consists of obtaining the frequency response of fault free/faulty circuit. The peak frequency and the peak amplitude from the error response are observed and processed suitably to extract distinct signatures for faulty and nonfaulty conditions under maximum tolerance conditions for other network components. …”
