TL;DR: The potential for the production of ethylene or liquid hydrocarbon fuels has not been fully realized as mentioned in this paper, and a number of strategies are being explored at levels that range from fundamental science to engineering technology.

TL;DR: The sequence and the structure of DNA methyltransferase-2 (DnMT2) bear close affinities to authentic DNA cytosine methyltransferases, and human DNMT2 protein restored methylation in vitro to tRNAAsp from Dnmt2-deficient strains of mouse, Arabidopsis thaliana, and Drosophila melanogaster in a manner that was dependent on preexisting patterns of modified nucleosides.
Abstract: The sequence and the structure of DNA methyltransferase-2 (Dnmt2) bear close affinities to authentic DNA cytosine methyltransferases. A combined genetic and biochemical approach revealed that human DNMT2 did not methylate DNA but instead methylated a small RNA; mass spectrometry showed that this RNA is aspartic acid transfer RNA (tRNA(Asp)) and that DNMT2 specifically methylated cytosine 38 in the anticodon loop. The function of DNMT2 is highly conserved, and human DNMT2 protein restored methylation in vitro to tRNA(Asp) from Dnmt2-deficient strains of mouse, Arabidopsis thaliana, and Drosophila melanogaster in a manner that was dependent on preexisting patterns of modified nucleosides. Indirect sequence recognition is also a feature of eukaryotic DNA methyltransferases, which may have arisen from a Dnmt2-like RNA methyltransferase.

TL;DR: The sequence and analysis of the 814-megabase genome of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus is reported, a model for developmental and systems biology and yields insights into the evolution of deuterostomes.
Abstract: We report the sequence and analysis of the 814-megabase genome of the sea urchin Strongylocentrotus purpuratus, a model for developmental and systems biology. The sequencing strategy combined whole-genome shotgun and bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) sequences. This use of BAC clones, aided by a pooling strategy, overcame difficulties associated with high heterozygosity of the genome. The genome encodes about 23,300 genes, including many previously thought to be vertebrate innovations or known only outside the deuterostomes. This echinoderm genome provides an evolutionary outgroup for the chordates and yields insights into the evolution of deuterostomes.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors present a review of the literature on sustainable competitive advantage (SCA) for services marketing and demonstrate that research in services marketing is characterized more by an operations management orientation than a strategic orientation.
Abstract: This paper presents a review of the literature to demonstrate that research in services marketing is characterized more by an operations management orientation than a strategic orientation. Diverse literature on sustainable competitive advantage (SCA) is synthesized and a conceptual model of drivers of SCA is proposed in this paper. Lessons from the manufacturing sector form the basis for a number of sources of SCA for services industries outlined in the paper. The distinctive characteristics of services are posited to moderate the effectiveness of the sources of competitive advantage.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors build and calibrate an integrated hydrological model of Europe using the Soil and Water Assessment Tool (SWAT) program, and discuss issues with data availability, calibration of large-scale distributed models, and outline procedures for model calibration and uncertainty analysis.
