Can foster carers help children resolve their emotional and behavioural difficulties? (2006)
Journal Article

Although foster care is generally seen as providing a positive experience for the children and young people for whom it caters, it is rarely conceived of as a place where the children are helped to address their emotional difficulties and modify thei...

Telomerase with mutated catalytic motifs has dominant negative effects on telomerase activity and inhibits cell growth (2006)
Journal Article

Telomerase catalytic subunit (TERT) seems a key factor controlling telomerase activity, telomere length, and cell growth. To further address this issue, we forced expression of a catalytically inactive mutant human TERT (hTERT) in hTERT-immortalised...

Fracture Risk in People With Primary Biliary Cirrhosis: A Population-Based Cohort Study (2006)
Journal Article

Background & Aims: Controversy exists as to whether people with primary biliary cirrhosis (PBC) have an increased risk of developing osteoporosis and the extent to which this may translate into an increased risk of fracture. We have performed a coh... Read More about Fracture Risk in People With Primary Biliary Cirrhosis: A Population-Based Cohort Study.

T-cell stimulating protein A (TspA) of Neisseria meningitidis is required for optimal adhesion to human cells (2006)
Journal Article

T-cell stimulating protein A (TspA) is an immunogenic, T-cell and B-cell stimulating protein of Neisseria meningitidis. Sequence similarity between TspA and FimV, a Pseudomonas aeruginosa protein involved in twitching motility, suggested a link betwe...

Identification of Conserved Residues in the E2 Envelope Glycoprotein of the Hepatitis C Virus That Are Critical for CD81 Binding (2006)
Journal Article

Hepatitis C virus (HCV) cell entry involves interaction between the viral envelope glycoprotein E2 and the cell surface receptor CD81. Knowledge of conserved E2 determinants important for successful binding will facilitate development of entry inhibi...

Use of autoantibodies in breast cancer screening and diagnosis (2006)
Journal Article

Breast cancer is the most common cancer among women and accounts for 6% of all cancer deaths. Current screening modalities for breast cancer diagnosis include mammography, digital mammography and magnetic resonance imaging; however, there is still an...

Developing digital records: Early experiences of record and replay (2006)
Journal Article

In this paper we consider the development of 'digital records' to support ethnographic study of interaction and collaboration in ubiquitous computing environments and articulate the core concept of 'record and replay' through two case studies. One fo... Read More about Developing digital records: Early experiences of record and replay.

Internally quenched peptides for the study of lysostaphin: An antimicrobial protease that kills Staphylococcus aureus (2006)
Journal Article

Lysostaphin (EC. 3.4.24.75) is a protein secreted by Staphylococcus simulans biovar staphylolyticus and has been shown to be active against methicillin resistant S. aureus (MRSA). The design and synthesis of three internally quenched substrates for l...

Scaling in a SU(2)/Z_3 model of cosmic superstring networks (2006)
Journal Article

Motivated by recent developments in superstring theory in the cosmological context, we examine a field theory which contains string networks with 3-way junctions. We perform numerical simulations of this model, identify the length scales of the netwo... Read More about Scaling in a SU(2)/Z_3 model of cosmic superstring networks.

The recognition of local DNA conformation by the human papillomavirus type 6 E2 protein (2006)
Journal Article

The E2 proteins are transcription/replication factors from papillomaviruses. Human papillomaviruses (HPVs) can be broadly divided in two groups; low-risk HPV subtypes cause benign warts while high-risk HPVs give rise to cervical cancer. Although a ra...

Volatile emission by contest losers revealed by real-time chemical analysis (2006)
Journal Article

Animal interactions often involve chemical exchange but simultaneous evaluation of chemistry and behaviour has been problematical. Here we report findings from a novel method, atmospheric pressure chemical ionization-mass spectrometry (APCI-MS) coupl...

General practice characteristics associated with rates of testing and detection of hepatitis C: Cross-sectional study in Nottingham and Derbyshire (2006)
Journal Article

The aim of this study was to determine general practice characteristics associated with testing rates for hepatitis C virus (HCV) and the proportion of tests with a positive result. The study included all patients tested for HCV from all general prac...

The Bacillus subtilis primosomal protein DnaD untwists supercoiled DNA (2006)
Journal Article

The essential Bacillus subtilis DnaD and DnaB proteins have been implicated in the initiation of DNA replication. Recently, DNA remodeling activities associated with both proteins were discovered that could provide a link between global or local nucl...

Centralising insolvencies of pan-European corporate groups: a creditor's dream or nightmare (2006)
Journal Article

Reflects on whether the EC's centralised approach to corporate insolvency within multinational groups of companies is likely to promote fairness to creditors. Considers the extent to which such a system fulfils creditors' expectations concerning the...
