Germanium tin nanowires: synergy at the nanoscale
The race to create alternative, Si compatible, scalable, tuneable device materials over the past number of years has led to a focus on group IV elements. Alloying group IV semiconductors, such as Ge or Si with group IV metals such as Sn and Pb, can lead to direct bandgap semiconductors, as in III-V …

Integrating acquisitions : keys to unlocking the value of synergy
The ability of mergers and acquisition transactions to generate enhanced shareholder value often hinges on successful integration. Our thesis examines this critical phase of merger activity. Through six discrete case studies and interviews with the individuals who led those transactions, we …

Promoting synergy between new hotel developments and established communities
There is often a great hubbub when a municipality or a developer suggests the development of a hotel most anywhere in the US, especially in highly urbanized communities. Because of their often imposing shapes, standardized form and insufficient attention to the context in which they are set, hotels …

Inactivation synergy between high energy neutrons and ⁶⁰Co gamma rays
… iso-effective photon dose. A greater measure of synergy was observed between photons and priming doses of neutrons with less build-up. This is however mainly due to higher levels of biological damage induced with a more potent configuration of secondary charged particles. Interaction factors …

The Functional Synergy Between Yeast Dynamin and Key Membrane Recycling Factors
Endocytic recycling is the process by which cells recycle endocytic materials from the trans-Golgi network or endosome back to the cell membrane, as opposed to being targeted to the vacuole for degradation. Ypt31p and Ypt32p GTPases are known to regulate the function of F-box protein Rcy1p, which …

Synergy of protein and genome engineering for fuels and chemicals production
… to ~100% purity. Next, this strategy of combined synergy was explored for the production of n-butanol, a promising biofuel, using recombinant yeast. Using directed evolution, one of the six butanol biosynthetic enzymes was engineered for soluble, functional expression in yeast. This enabled the …

Mechanisms of glucocorticoid pro-inflammatory effects on CCL20: crosstalk and synergy
Glucocorticoids (GCs) are steroid hormones widely prescribed to treat inflammatory disorders and are regarded as anti-inflammatory molecules. GCs classically induce the expression of antiinflammatory genes, while repressing pro-inflammatory genes via its endogenous cell receptor; the glucocorticoid …
