Missense glucokinase mutation in maturity-onset diabetes of the young and mutation screening in late-onset diabetes
No full textWe describe a codon 299 mutation in the glucokinase gene in a British pedigree with maturity-onset diabetes of the young (MODY) resulting in a substitution of glycine to arginine. One out of fifty patients diagnosed with classical late-onset type 2 diabetes mellitus was also found to have this mutation. All nine relatives of this patient who have inherited the mutation have type 2 diabetes, although six others without the mutation are also present with diabetes. The discovery that glucokinase mutations can cause MODY and was also found in ten affected members of a pedigree with type 2 diabetes in which MODY had not previously been considered indicates that diagnosis based on molecular pathology will be helpful in understanding the aetiology of type 2 diabetes

SERPENT Cruise Reports 2007
No full textThe SERPENT Project, Scientific & Environmental ROV Partnership using Existing iNdustrial Technology, is a collaboration between world leading scientific institutions and companies associated with the oil and gas industry. SERPENT is hosted at the National Oceanography Centre, Southampton (NOCS), one of the worlds’ largest research and teaching organisations specialising in deep-sea science and oceanography. SERPENT encompasses a scientific network of academic partners across the world (USA, Canada, Brazil, Africa, Australia), linked to a network of major oil and gas operators and contractors. The project centres around the opportunistic use of ROVs (Remotely Operated Vehicles) in operational settings during periods of stand-by time. The project also aims to maximise the scientific benefit of environmental data collected as part of routine offshore operations and environmental surveys. Through access to ROVs and such environmental data scientists at NOCS and from the wider SERPENT partnership aim to improve the scientific understanding of the deep-sea's biodiversity in all its aspects. This document presents the cruise reports for SERPENT missions carried out in 2007 and includes a history of all previous SERPENT missions and a list of samples taken during the project to date

Acts of the 19th century politeness etiquette (on the base of J.I. Kraszewski's letters to Wł. Chodźkiewicz)
No full textThe paper deals with the issue from the field of speech act theory including a study of a collection of about 220
private letters dating from the latter part of the 19th century. Several speech acts like greetings, farewells,
thanks, apologies, and wishes were arranged to show differentiation of their illocutionary power as well as
different character of the studied text types. It was also described how the author of the letters (J.I.
Kraszewski) had been using particular traditional expressions of great antiquity giving them not commonplace form
if necessary. The relations between types of the analyzed texts and localization of acts of politeness etiquette
was also considered. The aim of such politeness acts is to inform about positive emotions that the sender of
these expressions feels to the receiver of them.
Conventionalisms having been prevalent in the 19th century were considered from the perspective of their primary
function of constant creation and maintaining special politeness atmosphere of relations between people
