The MARCH family of RING-finger E3 ubiquitin ligases comprise 11 members that have been reported to play a variety of roles in the downregulation of cell-surface proteins involved in adaptive immunity.The RING-CH domain of MARCH proteins is thought to ubiquitinate the cytoplasmic tails (CTs) of target proteins, leading to protein degradation throug
Treatment of electric vehicle battery waste in China: A review of existing policies
This paper reviews existing policies for supporting the treatment of electric vehicle (EV) battery waste in China, and identifies some of their major shortcomings that policy makers may like to consider while making policy decisions.The shortcomings of existing policies identified in this paper include: 1) no clear provisions for historical and orp
Evaluating the Interference of Bicycle Traffic on Vehicle Operation on Urban Streets with Bike Lanes
Many urban streets are designed with on-street bike lanes to provide right-of-way for bicycle traffic.However, when bicycle flow headstall is large, extensive passing maneuvers could occupy vehicle lanes and thus cause interferences to vehicle traffic.The primary objective of this study is to evaluate how bicycle traffic affects vehicle operation o
Melting and draining tests on glass waste form for the immobilization of Cs, Sr, and rare-earth nuclides using a cold-crucible induction melting system
Cold-crucible induction melting (CCIM) technology has been intensively studied as an advanced vitrification process for the immobilization of highly radioactive waste.This technology uses high-frequency induction to melt a glass matrix and waste, while the outer surface of the crucible is water-cooled, resulting in the formation of a frozen glass l
