It is widely accepted that glycosphingolipids (GSLs) at the level of the plasma membrane can affect the biological functions of protein molecules, such as cell surface receptors or transporters. The interactions between GSLs and proteins belonging to specific membrane microdomains, called lipid rafts, could be responsible for the modulation of the functional properties of membrane proteins participating in signal transduction. GSL-protein interactions can be investigated by cell photolabelling experiments using radioactive photoactivable GSLs, which yield, when illuminated, a very reactive intermediate that covalently binds to the molecules in the environment, i.e. proteins.1,2
In this context, we have designed a fatty acid probe with two nitrophenylazide photoactivable groups, one at position 2 and the other at the end of the acyl chain. The conjugation of the fatty acid to a radioactive sphingoglycolipid generates a species to be used for photolabelling experiments. In this way, the simultaneous identification of the proteins belonging to both the leaflets of the plasma membrane, the cytoplasmatic and the extracellular one, will be realized.
Herein we describe a general synthetic strategy to obtain not commercially available α,ω-diamino acids, the synthetic precursors of the labelled fatty acids, which we have applied to the synthesis of a C-18 derivative. Furthermore, it will be described the preparation of a photolabelled radioactive GSL as a case study.

Qui sont les Dii mauri ?
The author reviews the various but rare interpretations of the divine collectivity referred to by the name of Dii Mauri. From a re-examination of the literary or epigraphic mentions of the 50 specifically African local or regional divinities, and of the 20 dedications to the Dii Mauri known to this day, he believes he can propose the relationship, even the identity, between the local gods and the Dii Mauri. The comparison between the authors of the dedications shows that the worship of the local gods principally concerned « civilians » (82,5 %), whereas the Dii Mauri were invoked by governors, imperial procurators, soldiers (81,25 %). Moreover the Dii Mauri are invoked as often in Numidia and in Africa as in Caesarian Mauretania (they are unknown in Tingitana). Therefore the term of "maurus" is not linked to the Roman administrative carving, it applies to what is rebellious to Latin culture, to what is specifically native and unassimilable. Dii Mauri and African gods are the same divinities, only the dedicators change.The author reviews the various but rare interpretations of the divine collectivity referred to by the name of Dii Mauri.

Mauri Hono: A Mauri sensory methodology
Within a Māori cultural context, the manifestation of mauri instilled in all living things, both animate and inanimate gives life. Previous research suggests Māori can experience somatic exchanges of energy such as mauri from both other people, as well as within the natural environment. Accordingly, Mauri Hono: A Mauri Sensory Methodology provides a foundation to understanding knowledge by tuning into our senses and using mauri states to help elicit meaning about ourselves and our relationships with natural environments when immersed in those environments. In this study, four key phases of the methodology are detailed; Rongo, Mōhio, Mārama and Mātau and applied to a case study which sought to understand how Māori draw meaning from their experience of being immersed in a natural environment. Ten participants undertook a hīkoi (walk) within a national forest park of regenerating, native, bush. Findings revealed the importance of tuning into one’s senses and having the time and space to interpret different experiences. Furthermore, Mauri Hono, as a Māori methodology is predicated on the belief that experiential knowledge aids in providing a more complete understanding of phenomena than theoretical knowledge alone. It further highlights that whilst knowledge can come into fruition within the timeframe of the project, there is opportunity for insights to arise afterwards, comprising various layers of knowing.fals

Oltre il ritratto: Intellettuale di Fabio Mauri
Il 31 maggio 1975, in occasione dell’inaugurazione della Galleria d’Arte Moderna di Bologna, ha luogo la performance Intellettuale di Fabio Mauri (1926-2009) con Pier Paolo Pasolini come protagonista. In cima alle scale d’ingresso del museo, contro la porta, Pasolini siede su un alto sgabello e sul suo torace, vestito con una camicia bianca, è proiettato il suo film Il Vangelo secondo Matteo. Il contributo propone una lettura dell’opera in dialogo con l’intera ricerca di Mauri e, attraverso il confronti con altre opere nonché con la categoria del ritratto, mira a individuare una prospettiva di analisi, non esaurita nella centralità fisica e simbolica di Pasolini, ma aperta verso il dialogo fra forme linguistiche diverse, come la performance e il cinema, il rapporto fra autore e opera nonché fra regista e pubblico, suggerendo la considerazione di Intellettuale come esercizio dialettico che supera la specificità del soggetto coinvolto e dunque la il genere del ritratto
