Influence of german monetary policymaking on the ECB: obstacle or opportunity?
(Peter Lang Publishing Group, 2020)Semih Emre Çekin Influence of German Monetary Policymaking on the ECB: Obstacle or Opportunity? “I certainly would not say that we are ‘just’ one of 17 central banks. We are the largest and most important central bank in ... -
A home energy management system with an integrated smart thermostat for demand response in smart grids
(Elsevier Ltd, 2021)Smart thermostats and home energy management systems (HEMSs) are generally studied separately. However, their joint use can provide a greater benefit. Therefore, this study primarily aims to combine a smart thermostat with ... -
Effects of alumina (Al2O3) addition on the cell structure and mechanical properties of 6061 foams
(Cambridge Univ Press, 2013)In this study, a powder blend representing 6061 Al-alloy was first mixed with Al2O3 ceramic particles and then foamed by using the powder compact melting method. 6061-Al2O3 foams and control specimens 6061 foams (without ... -
Competing specifications of the gravity equation: a three-way model, bilateral interaction effects, or a dynamic gravity model with time-varying country effects?
(Physica-Verlag Gmbh & Co, 2014)We investigate bilateral trade flows across the EU-15 countries from 1962 to 2003 by different specifications of the gravity model. We augment the basic gravity model with population and exchange rate variables, and then ... -
Spies, victims, collaborators and humanitarian interventionists: The Germans on the Hellenic and Ottoman shore of the Aegean
(Routledge, 2014)Between the years 1911 and 1923, the Ottoman Empire was engaged in a series of disastrous wars that changed the make-up of the Eastern Mediterranean altogether. is also had catastrophic eects on the port cities. Some, such ... -
Microbial peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (ppIases): virulence factors and potential alternative drug targets
(Amer Soc Microbiology, 2014)Initially discovered in the context of immunomodulation, peptidyl-prolyl cis/trans isomerases (PPIases) were soon identified as enzymes catalyzing the rate-limiting protein folding step at peptidyl bonds preceding proline ... -
Polyketide synthase (PKS) reduces fusion of Legionella pneumophila-containing vacuoles with lysosomes and contributes to bacterial competitiveness during infection
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer Verlag, 2014)L. pneumophila-containing vacuoles (LCVs) exclude endocytic and lysosomal markers in human macrophages and protozoa. We screened a L. pneumophila mini-Tn10 transposon library for mutants, which fail to inhibit the fusion ... -
Sparsity-driven synthetic aperture radar imaging [reconstruction, autofocusing, moving targets, and compressed sensing]
(Ieee-Inst Electrical Electronics Engineers Inc, 2014)This article presents a survey of recent research on sparsity-driven synthetic aperture radar (SAR) imaging.In particular, it reviews 1) the analysis and synthesis-based sparse signal representation formulations for SAR ... -
Novel cycloheximide derivatives targeting the moonlighting protein Mip exhibit specific antimicrobial activity against Legionella pneumophila
(Frontiers Media Sa, 2015)Macrophage infectivity potentiator (Mip) and Mip-like proteins are virulence factors in a wide range of pathogens including Legionella pneumophila. These proteins belong to the FK506 binding protein (FKBP) family of ... -
Peptidylprolyl cis-trans isomerases of Legionella pneumophila: virulence, moonlighting and novel therapeutic targets
(Portland Press Ltd, 2014)Legionella pneumophila, typically a parasite of free-living protozoa, can also replicate in human alveolar macrophages and lung epithelial cells causing Legionnaires' disease in humans, a severe atypical pneumonia. The ... -
Application of a pnCCD for energy-dispersive Lauc diffraction with ultra-hard X-rays
(Int Union Crystallography, 2015)In this work the spectroscopic performance of a pnCCD detector in the ultra-hard energy range between 40 and 140 keV is tested by means of an energy-dispersive Laue diffraction experiment on a GaAs crystal. About 100 Bragg ... -
The phenotypes of ATG9, ATG16 and ATG9/16 knock-out mutants imply autophagy-dependent and -independent functions
(Royal Soc, 2015)Macroautophagy is a highly conserved intracellular bulk degradation system of all eukaryotic cells. It is governed by a large number of autophagy proteins (ATGs) and is crucial for many cellular processes. Here, we describe ... -
FKBPs in bacterial infections
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2015)Background: FK506-binding proteins (FKBPs) contain a domain with peptidyl-prolyl-cis/trans-isomerase (PPlase) activity and bind the immunosuppressive drugs FK506 and rapamycin. FKBPs belong to the immunophilin family and ... -
Business network governance structure and IT capabilities
(Elsevier Science Bv, 2016)This paper investigates the IT capability and its impact on the governance of business networks by offering a comprehensive IT capability concept especially for monitoring, controlling and coordination purposes. This concept ... -
Spatio-temporal accident analysis for accident prevention in relation to behavioral factors in driving: the case of South Anatolian Motorway
(Elsevier Sci Ltd, 2015)Analyzing the pattern of traffic accidents on road segments can highlight the hazardous locations where the accidents occur frequently and help to determine problematic parts of the roads. The objective of this paper is ... -
Direct and indirect signal detection of 122 keV photons with a novel detector combining a pnCCD and a CsI(T1) scintillator
(Elsevier, 2016)By combining a low noise fully depleted pnCCD detector with a CsI(TI) scintillator, an energy-dispersive area detector can be realized with a high quantum efficiency (QE) in the range from below 1 keV to above 100 keV. In ... -
Design criteria for a high energy Compton Camera and possible application to targeted cancer therapy
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2015)The proposed research focuses on the design criteria for a Compton Camera with high spatial resolution and sensitivity, operating at high gamma energies and its possible application for molecular imaging. This application ... -
A novel approach to obtain trajectories of targets from laser scanned datasets
(Ieee, 2015)Laser scanner has several bons when compared with video camera. It does not record real world videos except scanned points. As a result, processing of data becomes faster and easier. Over and above, it takes away the problem ... -
Modifying ultrafast optical response of sputtered VOX nanostructures in a broad spectral range by altering post annealing atmosphere
(Iop Publishing Ltd, 2015)Nanostructured VOX thin films were grown in a dc magnetron sputter system under two different Ar:O-2 gas flow ratios. The films were annealed under vacuum and various ratios of O-2/N-2 atmospheres. The insulator-to-metal ...
