Journal Article
Speakman, L., Owada, Y., & Mase, K. (2009). Looping in OLSRv2 in Mobile Ad-Hoc Networks, Loop Suppession and Loop Correction. IEICE Transactions on Communications, E92-B(4), 1210-1221. https://doi.org/10.1587/transcom.e92.b.1210

Transient routing loops have been observed to form in Mobile Ad-hoc Networks running the OLSRv2 proactive link-state routing protocol. The packets falling into loops impact the surrounding network thus degrading throughput even though only a small pr...

Predicting functional upstream open reading frames in Saccharomyces cerevisiae (2009)
Journal Article
Selpi, S., Bryant, C., Kemp, G., Sarv, J., Kristiansson, E., & Sunnerhagen, P. (2009). Predicting functional upstream open reading frames in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. BMC Bioinformatics, 10, 451. https://doi.org/10.1186/1471-2105-10-451

BACKGROUND: Some upstream open reading frames (uORFs) regulate gene expression (i.e., they are functional) and can play key roles in keeping organisms healthy. However, how uORFs are involved in gene regulation is not yet fully understood. In order t... Read More about Predicting functional upstream open reading frames in Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Enzyme hydrogels were prepared on carbon film electrodes using glucose oxidase and an epoxide crosslinking agent. The catalytic activity of the gels was found to depend strongly on curing time. The competing effects of increased mechanical stability... Read More about Dependence of catalytic activity and long-term stability of enzyme hydrogel films on curing time.

Communication and the representation of thought: the use of audience directed expressions in free indirect thought representations (2009)
Journal Article

This paper examines the use of audience-directed or inherently communicative expressions(discourse markers and interjections) in free indirect thought representations
in fiction. It argues that the insights of Banfield’s (1982) no-narrator approach... Read More about Communication and the representation of thought: the use of audience directed expressions in free indirect thought representations.

Evolutionary divergence in behavioural traits related to mating may represent the initial stage of speciation. Direct
selective forces are usually invoked to explain divergence in mate-recognition traits, often neglecting a role for
neutral process... Read More about Calls, colours, shape, and genes: a multi-trait approach to the study of geographic variation in the Amazonian frog allobates femoralis.

Journal Article

Poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase-1 (PARP-1) is a base excision repair (BER) protein that binds to DNA single strand breaks (SSBs) and subsequently synthesizes and transfers poly(ADP-ribose) polymers to various nuclear proteins.
