“…55 A striking feature is their predominance in Zone 1 where 57 % of them occur versus 10 to 22 % in the other zones. 56 An analysis of the orientation of plots according to the cardinal points has suggested that fields in Zone 1 principally follow the Bahr Yussef, while another part lies on the left bank of the Nile. 57 In Zone 2 fields mostly adjoin the riverbank and in Zone 3 they are generally at a distance from watercourses, probably being located in the central part of the floodplain.…”

“…Sebakh extraction had no doubt happened earlier, but not previously on such a scale. 56 In some ways, the humbler manifestations of human cultures -broken and salty sherds, ashy deposits, windblown sand lenses, ancient earthworks -are denied legitimacy and a place in a culture's and a discipline's narrative when they are demoted to such a binary state: "antiquities" vs. "sebakh;" "archaeological land" vs. "lands declared free of monuments or artefacts.

“…We will assume here that this dyke continued all along the western side of the Tirʿa Tānūf to the Baḥr Yūsif. 56 This hypothetical dyke ( indicated by a dotted line) is here called dyke 15. Basin XII: This is the basin just discussed. It is surrounded by the levee of the Baḥr Yūsif (south), dyke 3' (east), dyke 15 (west), and dyke 4 (north and west).…”

“…Basin XV: This basin is enclosed on the north by the westward continuation of dyke 4, which continues until where it touches dyke 16: the Jisr Badramān ("gesr 56 In the study cited in n. 43, H. Willems assumed that such a dyke only ran from dyke 14 southwards, which is inconsistent. If it at all existed, it most likely continued all the way from dyke 4 to the Baḥr Yūsif, and hence north of the Jisr al-Nāṣirīya.…”

“…Late Antique Period dated material predominates on those sites where pottery survey has been carried out in the Delta, 55 but the phenomenon has also been noted in Middle Egypt around Amarna 56 and now, also, in the Fayum. 57 Although the survey collections in the Delta included material from ditches around the sites, in order to obtain pottery that may have come from deeper strata, it is possible, however, that this material could also have been spread out from the central part of the sites and covered earlier material.…”

Discovering William of Malmesbury

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Describing William of Malmesbury, scholars have often found it appropriate to draw upon superlatives: he was one of medieval England's finest men of letters, among the most learned historians of twelfth-century Europe, and, some would argue, the greatest historian of England since Bede. 1 In examining William's own words, however, it becomes clear that he was not a man of extremes; careful, measured, considered, and erudite, William's life was devoted to grappling with the complexities of history, and reconciling his own interests and personal relationships with his quest for truth and objectivity, both historical and religious. This present volume is a celebration of his achievements, and an attempt to become acquainted with the man and the works that allows us to enjoy a glimpse into the multifaceted world of twelfth-century England. It is, however, also a celebration of a more immediate achievement: it marks the release of Rodney Thomson and Michael Winterbottom's edition of The Miracles of the Virgin, the last of William's works to be edited and translated into modern English. William's humble biography belies his cultural importance and the scholarly ambitions that underpinned his career. What little precise information we have has been gleaned from his own writings. Born in Wiltshire in the last decade of the eleventh century, William was well educated and entered into the Benedictine abbey of Malmesbury as a youth. At the time, Malmesbury was under the abbacy of Godfrey of Jumièges, a man committed to the education of his monks, and who established Malmesbury as a centre of learning. 2 From around 1120, William was precentor, or cantor, of the abbey, a role which involved acting as librarian as well as the director of the liturgy; during this time, William undertook an expansion of Malmesbury's library, partially achieved through contributions of

Design of a DNA-Programmed Plasminogen Activator

et al. 2018

Although the functional specificity and catalytic versatility of enzymes have been exploited in numerous settings, controlling the spatial and temporal activity of enzymes remains challenging. Here we describe an approach for programming the function of streptokinase (SK)-a protein that is clinically used as a blood "clot buster" therapeutic. We show that the fibrinolytic activity resulting from the binding of SK to the plasma proenzyme plasminogen (Pg) can be effectively regulated (turned "OFF" and "ON") by installing an intrasteric regulatory feature using a DNAlinked protease inhibitor modification. We describe the design rationale, synthetic approach, and functional characterization of two generations of intrasterically-regulated SK-Pg constructs and demonstrate dose-dependent and sequence-specific temporal control in fibrinolytic activity in response to short predesignated DNA inputs. The studies described establish the feasibility of a new enzyme-programming approach and serves as a step toward advancing a new generation of programmable enzyme therapeutics.
