Early Stages of RNA-Mediated Conversion of Human Prions
PublicationPrion diseases are characterized by the conversion of prion proteins from a PrPC fold into a disease-causing PrPSC form that is self-replicating. A possible agent to trigger this conversion is polyadenosine RNA, but both mechanism and pathways of the conversion are poorly understood. Using coarse-grained molecular dynamic simulations we study the time evolution of PrPC over 600 μs. We find that both the D178N mutation and interacting...

PublicationThe elimination of mineral oil-based lubricants from machines has multiple beneficial effects on the natural environment. Firstly – these lubricants are a direct threat to the environment in the event of leaks; secondly – their elimination reduces the demand for crude oil from which they are obtained. In addition, in many cases, e.g. when replacing traditional lubricants with water, friction losses in the bearings can also be reduced...

Edge and Pair Queries-Random Graphs and Complexity
PublicationWe investigate two types of query games played on a graph, pair queries and edge queries. We concentrate on investigating the two associated graph parameters for binomial random graphs, and showing that determining any of the two parameters is NP-hard for bounded degree graphs.

Edge coloring of graphs of signed class 1 and 2
PublicationRecently, Behr (2020) introduced a notion of the chromatic index of signed graphs and proved that for every signed graph (G, σ) it holds that ∆(G) ≤ χ′(G,σ) ≤ ∆(G) + 1, where ∆(G) is the maximum degree of G and χ′ denotes its chromatic index. In general, the chromatic index of (G, σ) depends on both the underlying graph G and the signature σ. In the paper we study graphs G for which χ′(G, σ) does not depend on σ. To this aim we...

Economic benefits from decreased mercury emissions: Projections for 2020
PublicationRozne procesy antropogenne zwiększyły ekspozycję ludzi i zwierząt na toksyczna metylortęć. Oszacowano, że emisje rtęci wzrosna o około 25% miedzy latami 2005 i 2020. Jeśli utrzyma się ich dzisiejszy trend. Stwierdzono, że straty społeczne w skali globalnej, związane ze spożywaniem metylortęci i mierzone w obniżaniu się IQ ludzi, moga wynieść około 3.7 biliona USD rocznie. Ten koszt zwiazany z wdychaniem par rtęci jest znacznie...

Economic growth, structural change and quality upgrading in New Member States
PublicationThe purpose of this research is to present the recent developments concerning structural change and productivity growth in New Member States and the role played in such process by country specific factors. We focus on ten countries (NMS-10) which joined the EU in 2004 and analyze productivity dynamics of their labor structures between the years 1995 and 2005 in a comparative setting versus EU-15 economies. NMS-10 have gone through...

Ecotoxicity and chemical sediment data classification by the useof self-organising maps
PublicationArtykuł dotyczy przedstawiania nowej interpretacji szacowania jakości osadów. To oryginalne podejście bada powiązania między parametrami ekotoksyczności (ostrej i chronicznej) i składnikami chemicznymi (zanieczyszczenia takie jak polichlorowane bifenyle, pestycydy, wielopierścieniowe węglowodory aromatyczne, metale ciężkie) próbek osadów Jeziora Turawskiego (Polska) poprzez zastosowanie samoorganizujących się map (SOM) wobec badanego...
