Modified Wiener equations
Author(s) :
Will Watkins
Description :
This paper is concerned with a class of functional differential equations whose argument transforms are involutions. In contrast to the earlier works in this area, which have used only involutions with a fixed point, we also admit involutions without a fixed point. In the first case, an initial val...

Government Regulation of Dot-ca Domain Name Space
Author(s) :
Marc Watkins
Description :
[Abstract] Long gone are the days when the Internet’s Domain-Name System could be administered by a few computer and network scientists acting as self-appointed or matter-of-fact trustees of what was then a military research project funded by the U.S. Government. With the Internet becoming a commerc...

The Role of Competition in Today's Hong Kong The Views of Hong Kong Chinese Adolescents in Comparative Perspective
Author(s) :
David Watkins
Description :
Open-ended responses to the question "what kind of role does competition play in Hong Kong today?" were obtained from 257 senior Hong Kong secondary school students aged 16-18 years. Content analysis showed the respondents viewed competition in terms of the areas in which competition was involved, ...

Conserved Stem II of the Box CD Motif Is Essential for Nucleolar Localization and Is Required Along with the 15.5K Protein for the Hierarchical Assembly of the Box CD snoRNP
Author(s) :
Dr Nicholas James Watkins
Description :
The 5 stem-loop of the U4 snRNA and the box CD motif of the box CD snoRNAs can both be folded into a similar stem-internal loop-stem structure that binds the 15.5K protein. The homologous proteins NOP56 and NOP58 and 61K hPrp31 associate with the box CD snoRNPs and the U4U6 snRNP respectively. This ...

Role of pre-rRNA Base Pairing and 80S Complex Formation in Subnucleolar Localization of the U3 snoRNP
Author(s) :
Dr Nicholas James Watkins
Description :
In the nucleolus the U3 snoRNA is recruited to the 80S pre-rRNA processing complex in the dense fibrillar component DFC. The U3 snoRNA is found throughout the nucleolus and has been proposed to move with the preribosomes to the granular component GC. In contrast the localization of other RNAs such a...

Assembly and Maturation of the U3 snoRNP in the Nucleoplasm in a Large Dynamic Multiprotein Complex
Author(s) :
Dr Nicholas James Watkins
Description :
The assembly and maturation of box CD snoRNPs factors essential for ribosome biogenesis occur in the nucleoplasm. To investigate this process we have analysed non-snoRNP factors associated with the nucleoplasmic human U3 snoRNA. We show that both the precursor and mature length nucleoplasmic U3 snoR...

Protein-Protein and Protein-RNA Contacts Both Contribute to the 15.5K-Mediated Assembly of the U4U6 snRNP and the box CD snoRNPs
Author(s) :
Dr Nicholas James Watkins
Description :
The k-turn-binding protein 15.5K is unique in that it is essential for the hierarchical assembly of three RNP complexes distinct in both composition and function namely the U4U6 snRNP the box CD snoRNP and the RNP complex assembled on the U3 box BC motif. 15.5K interacts with the cognate RNAs via an...

A Dynamic Scaffold of Pre-snoRNP Factors Facilitates Human Box CD snoRNP Assembly
Author(s) :
Dr Nicholas James Watkins
Description :
The box CD small nucleolar RNPs snoRNPs are essential for the processing and modification of ribosomal RNA. The core box CD proteins are restructured during human U3 box CD snoRNP biogenesis however the molecular basis of this is unclear. Here we show that the U8 snoRNP is also restructured suggesti...

The neural basis of attention and perception in the human brain
Author(s) :
Watkins, S.
Description :
Being able to focus on the task at hand while retaining the ability to respond to salient
task-irrelevant stimuli is critical to successful human behaviour. It is vital that animals
and people can quickly redirect their attention when faced with novel or potentially
threatening stimuli. In this thes...
