...Structures, Biosynthesis and Biofunctions of Iron-sulfer proteins Yiming Chen, Brown University, May 11th, 2011 I. Introduction Iron-sulfur proteins are the proteins which contain iron-sulfur clusters, like sulfide-linked di-, tri-, and tetrairon centers with various oxidative states 1. An excess of 120 distinct types of enzymes and proteins are known to contain Fe-S clusters2. Iron-sulfur proteins are known for the role of the oxidation-reduction reactions of mitochondrial electron transportation. They are also discovered in a series of metalloproteins procedures, for example, ferredoxins 3, Coenzyme Qcytochrome c reductase 4, succinate-coenzyme Q reductase 5 and nitrogenase 6. The iron-sulfur proteins have many functions including catalysis, generate radicals, and also can play as sulfur donors in the biosynthesis of lipoic acid and biotin. Additionally some of the Fe-S proteins are able to regulate the gene expression. Furthermore, the discoveries of new iron-sulfur proteins and iron-sulfur clusters has led to lots of interests of their amazing functional and structural diversity, which reflects the versatility of both iron and sulfur in biochemical processes. Since these iron-sulfur proteins are vey common on the metabolic pathways of most organisms, it leads some scientific interests that iron-sulfur compounds had a significant role in the origin of life in the Iron-sulfur world theory 7. Thus theory claims that the early life on earth probaby formed on the...

...processing and assembling of the factory. In this fact developing society, electronic has come to stay as the most important branch of Engineering. Electronic devices are being used in almost all the industries for quality control and automation. They have become a fast replacement of present workers army which is engaged in processing and assembling of the factory. 2. Problem statement: The objective of this project is to make a device with the help of PLC which can control automatically the devices connected with it, the PLC we are using is Siemens LOGO module, we control the street light, home appliances, Lamp Flasher, and star delta starter. The PLC helps us in automatic control of devices with its output signal; we can also provide the time delay using timers. 1 3. Purpose of the Project: An engineer discovers new ideas and identifies opportunities in various sectors of national economy. He explores the possibilities of starting adventures infield of agriculture, trade, industry, transport and communication etc. An engineering project is a combination of numerous activities on the part of entrepreneurs, organizers, designers, workers and etc. The engineer is the key element in any project work and it is not possible to attain success for every engineer.

...topics of law and ethics. In this chapter readers will learn to identify major national and international laws that relate to the practice of information security as well as come to understand the role of culture as it applies to ethics in information security. Chapter Objectives When you complete this chapter, you will be able to: Differentiate between law and ethics Identify major national and international laws that relate to the practice of information security Understand the role of culture as it applies to ethics in information security Access current information on laws, regulations, and relevant professional organizations Set-up Notes This chapter could be completed in a single class session, if there is sufficient time to cover the material. Unless the students have not had the opportunity to read the material in advance (in some settings, the textbooks are not made available until the first class meeting), it may be prudent to have a general discussion of the topic, with detailed lecture to follow at the next class meeting. The subject matter can be covered in 1.25 to 2.5 hours. Lecture Notes and Teaching Tips with Quick Quizzes Introduction As a future information security professional, it is vital that you understand the scope of an organization’s legal and ethical responsibilities.

...and successfully demonstrated these capabilities on the live Lenel system under the supervision of the university's Department of Public Safety. Based on our findings, we recommend that the university use neither social security nor university ID numbers on the cards, that it use magnetic card access only in low-security areas, and that it use a more sophisticated and secure system such as proximity smart cards for access to high-security areas. While the analysis and recommendations presented in this paper are aimed at the University of Maryland, building security professionals everywhere can use the material presented here to enhance the security of their own swipe card systems.
