TL;DR: The results suggested that the cytoplasmic anaerobic “azo reductases,” which have been described repeatedly in in vitro systems, are presumably flavin reductase and that in vivo they have insignificant importance in the reduction of sulfonated azo compounds.
Abstract: A flavin reductase, which is naturally part of the ribonucleotide reductase complex of Escherichia coli, acted in cell extracts of recombinant E. coli strains under aerobic and anaerobic conditions as an “azo reductase.” The transfer of the recombinant plasmid, which resulted in the constitutive expression of high levels of activity of the flavin reductase, increased the reduction rate for different industrially relevant sulfonated azo dyes in vitro almost 100-fold. The flavin reductase gene (fre) was transferred to Sphingomonas sp. strain BN6, a bacterial strain able to degrade naphthalenesulfonates under aerobic conditions. The flavin reductase was also synthesized in significant amounts in theSphingomonas strain. The reduction rates for the sulfonated azo compound amaranth were compared for whole cells and cell extracts from both recombinant strains, E. coli, and wild-typeSphingomonas sp. strain BN6. The whole cells showed less than 2% of the specific activities found with cell extracts. These results suggested that the cytoplasmic anaerobic “azo reductases,” which have been described repeatedly in in vitro systems, are presumably flavin reductases and that in vivo they have insignificant importance in the reduction of sulfonated azo compounds.

TL;DR: The XCCA concept opens up a fascinating view into the world of disorder and will definitely allow, with the advent of free electron X-ray lasers, an accurate and systematic experimental characterization of the structure of the liquid and glass states.
Abstract: We explore the different local symmetries in colloidal glasses beyond the standard pair correlation analysis. Using our newly developed X-ray cross correlation analysis (XCCA) concept together with brilliant coherent X-ray sources, we have been able to access and classify the otherwise hidden local order within disorder. The emerging local symmetries are coupled to distinct momentum transfer (Q) values, which do not coincide with the maxima of the amorphous structure factor. Four-, 6-, 10- and, most prevalently, 5-fold symmetries are observed. The observation of dynamical evolution of these symmetries forms a connection to dynamical heterogeneities in glasses, which is far beyond conventional diffraction analysis. The XCCA concept opens up a fascinating view into the world of disorder and will definitely allow, with the advent of free electron X-ray lasers, an accurate and systematic experimental characterization of the structure of the liquid and glass states.

TL;DR: The dynamics induced by the edge Laplacian facilitates a better understanding of the role of certain subgraphs in the original agreement problem, and is employed to provide new insights into the nonlinear extension of linear agreement to agents with passive dynamics.
Abstract: This work explores the properties of the edge variant of the graph Laplacian in the context of the edge agreement problem. We show that the edge Laplacian, and its corresponding agreement protocol, provides a useful perspective on the well-known node agreement, or the consensus algorithm. Specifically, the dynamics induced by the edge Laplacian facilitates a better understanding of the role of certain subgraphs, e.g., cycles and spanning trees, in the original agreement problem. Using the edge Laplacian, we proceed to examine graph-theoretic characterizations of the H2 and H∞ performance for the agreement protocol. These results are subsequently applied in the contexts of optimal sensor placement for consensus-based applications. Finally, the edge Laplacian is employed to provide new insights into the nonlinear extension of linear agreement to agents with passive dynamics.
