TL;DR: In this article, the quadratic and cubic versions of the EKC were tested econometrically, using panel data ranging from 1960 to 1998 for 16 industrialised countries.

TL;DR: This release of the YEASTRACT database provides new visualization tools to visualize each regulatory network in an interactive fashion, enabling the user to select and observe subsets of the network such as: (i) considering only DNA binding evidence or both DNA binding and expression evidence; (ii)considering only either positive or negative regulatory associations; or (iii) consideringonly one set of related environmental conditions.
Abstract: The YEAst Search for Transcriptional Regulators And Consensus Tracking (YEASTRACT-www.yeastract.com) information system has been, for 11 years, a key tool for the analysis and prediction of transcription regulatory associations at the gene and genomic levels in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Since its last update in June 2017, YEASTRACT includes approximately 163000 regulatory associations between transcription factors (TF) and target genes in S. cerevisiae, based on more than 1600 bibliographic references; it also includes 247 specific DNA binding consensus recognized by 113 TFs. This release of the YEASTRACT database provides new visualization tools to visualize each regulatory network in an interactive fashion, enabling the user to select and observe subsets of the network such as: (i) considering only DNA binding evidence or both DNA binding and expression evidence; (ii) considering only either positive or negative regulatory associations; or (iii) considering only one set of related environmental conditions. A further tool to observe TF regulons is also offered, enabling a clear-cut understanding of the exact meaning of the available data. We believe that with this new version, YEASTRACT will improve its role as an open web resource instrumental for Yeast Biologists and Systems Biology researchers.

TL;DR: In this paper, the analysis of free vibration problems of functionally graded shells is performed by radial basis functions collocation, according to a higher-order shear deformation theory that accounts for through-the-thickness deformation.
Abstract: This paper deals with free vibration problems of functionally graded shells. The analysis is performed by radial basis functions collocation, according to a higher-order shear deformation theory that accounts for through-the-thickness deformation. The equations of motion and the boundary conditions are obtained by Carrera’s Unified Formulation resting upon the principle of virtual work, and further interpolated by collocation with radial basis functions. Numerical results include spherical as well as cylindrical shell panels with all edges clamped or simply supported and demonstrate the accuracy of the present approach.

TL;DR: The study of the folding of free Cp and Ind, combined with the (eta(5/3)-Cp')-M bond analysis, shows that the observed difference is not the result of an intrinsic characteristic of the indenyl ligand, such as the traditionally accepted aromaticity gain in the benzene ring formed in eta(3)-Ind complexes.
Abstract: The eta(5)-to-eta(3) coordination shift of cyclopentadienyl (Cp=C(5)H(5)(-)) and indenyl (Ind=C(9)H(7)(-)) ligands in molybdenocene complexes, [(eta(5)-Cp')(eta(5)-Cp)Mo(CO)(2)](2+) (Cp'=Cp or Ind), driven by a two-electron reduction of those species, was studied and compared by means of molecular orbital calculations (B3LYP HF/DFT hybrid functional, DZP basis sets). The results obtained, in terms of optimized geometries, relative energies, and bond analysis parameters, compare well with the experimental data, and verify the well-known indenyl effect, that is, a significantly more facile eta(5)-to-eta(3) rearrangement for the indenyl ligand when compared to cyclopentadienyl. However, the study of the folding of free Cp and Ind, combined with the (eta(5/3)-Cp')-M bond analysis, shows that the observed difference is not the result of an intrinsic characteristic of the indenyl ligand, such as the traditionally accepted aromaticity gain in the benzene ring formed in eta(3)-Ind complexes. Instead, it is directly related to the Cp'-M bond strength. While the difference in the energy required to fold the two free ligands is negligible (< or =1 kcal mol(-1) for folding angles up to 20 degrees), the (eta(5)-Cp)-M bond is stronger than that of (eta(5)-Ind)-M; however, the opposite situation is found for the eta(3) coordination mode. The net result, for Cp'=Ind, is a destabilization of the eta(5) complexes and a stabilization of the eta(3) intermediates or transition states yielding smaller activation energies and faster reaction rates for processes in which that is the rate-determining step.
