As cotas fazem diferença? Ações positivas no parlamento Belga by Mercedes Mateo Diaz

“…The analysis shows that the effect of quotas to a large degree is dependent on the will of parties to obtain more female representatives. Thus, if the major aim of a legislation on quotas is to impose a balanced gender structure in the representatives' assembly, the legislation ought to consider men's and women's positions on the lists.…”

Vaccinia virus proteins A52 and B14 Share a Bcl-2-like fold but have evolved to inhibit NF-kappaB rather than apoptosis. by Stephen C Graham, Mohammad W Bahar, Samantha Cooray, Ron A-J Chen, Daniel M Whalen, Nicola G A Abrescia, David Alderton, Raymond J Owens, David I Stuart, Geoffrey L Smith, Jonathan M Grimes

“…Unlike cellular and viral Bcl-2-like proteins described previously, A52 and B14 lack a surface groove for binding BH3 peptides from pro-apoptotic Bcl-2-like proteins and they do not modulate apoptosis. Structure-based phylogenetic analysis of 32 cellular and viral Bcl-2-like protein structures reveals that A52 and B14 are more closely related to each other and to VACV N1 and myxoma virus M11 than they are to other viral or cellular Bcl-2-like proteins. …”
