    Az Alaptörvény 2012. január 1-jén történt hatályba lépését követően sok tekintetben megváltozott Magyarország közjogi keretrendszere. Különösen igaz ez a megállapítás a normakontrollt végző alkotmányos szervek struktúrájára, valamint azok működését meghatározó jogszabályi környezetre, melynek eljárásjogi vetületű jellemzőit elemzi a jelen tanulmány

    The toposiomerase IIIalpha-RMI1-RMI2 complex orients human Bloom’s syndrome helicase for efficient disruption of D-loops

    Homologous recombination (HR) is a ubiquitous and efficient process that serves the repair of severe forms of DNA damage and the generation of genetic diversity during meiosis. HR can proceed via multiple pathways with different outcomes that may aid or impair genome stability and faithful inheritance, underscoring the importance of HR quality control. Human Bloom’s syndrome (BLM, RecQ family) helicase plays central roles in HR pathway selection and quality control via unexplored molecular mechanisms. Here we show that BLM’s multi-domain structural architecture supports a balance between stabilization and disruption of displacement loops (D-loops), early HR intermediates that are key targets for HR regulation. We find that this balance is markedly shifted toward efficient D-loop disruption by the presence of BLM’s interaction partners Topoisomerase IIIα-RMI1-RMI2, which have been shown to be involved in multiple steps of HR-based DNA repair. Our results point to a mechanism whereby BLM can differentially process D-loops and support HR control depending on cellular regulatory mechanisms

    Synthesis and Fluorescence Mechanism of the Aminoimidazolone Analogues of the Green Fluorescent Protein: Towards Advanced Dyes with Enhanced Stokes Shift, Quantum Yield and Two-Photon Absorption

    Novel small-molecular analogues the green fluorescence protein (GFP) chromophore are synthesised to expand and improve this fluorophore family and to deepen the understanding of their fluorescence mechanism. The introduction of an aminophenyl substituent and the repositioning of the hydroxyl group to enable strong intramolecular hydrogen bonding, not only enhances fluorescence emission, but also results in an increased Stokes shift and a considerable red shift. Experimental and computational results describe a dual fluorescence involving both excited-state intramolecular proton transfer and internal charge transfer (ESIPT?ICT) mechanism. The further improvement of the photophysical properties via the systematic variation of dialkylamino substituents at a single position of the chromophore led to a two-orders of magnitude enhancement in the quantum yields. In addition, the novel compounds also have significant two-photon absorption, which widens the possibilities for applications in the field of bioimaging

    Thin accretion disks in stationary axisymmetric wormhole spacetimes

    In this paper, we study the physical properties and the equilibrium thermal radiation emission characteristics of matter forming thin accretion disks in stationary axially symmetric wormhole spacetimes. The thin disk models are constructed by taking different values of the wormhole's angular velocity, and the time averaged energy flux, the disk temperature and the emission spectra of the accretion disks are obtained. Comparing the mass accretion in a rotating wormhole geometry with the one of a Kerr black hole, we verify that the intensity of the flux emerging from the disk surface is greater for wormholes than for rotating black holes with the same geometrical mass and accretion rate. We also present the conversion efficiency of the accreting mass into radiation, and show that the rotating wormholes provide a much more efficient engine for the transformation of the accreting mass into radiation than the Kerr black holes. Therefore specific signatures appear in the electromagnetic spectrum of thin disks around rotating wormholes, thus leading to the possibility of distinguishing wormhole geometries by using astrophysical observations of the emission spectra from accretion disks.Comment: 12 pages, 26 figures.

    HAT-P-65b and HAT-P-66b: Two Transiting Inflated Hot Jupiters and Observational Evidence for the Reinflation of Close-in Giant Planets

    We present the discovery of the transiting exoplanets HAT-P-65b and HAT-P-66b, with orbital periods of 2.6055 d and 2.9721 d, masses of 0.527 ± 0.083 MJ and 0.783 ± 0.057 MJ, and inflated radii of 1.89 ± 0.13 RJ and 1.59+0.16 −0.10 RJ, respectively. They orbit moderately bright (V = 13.145 ± 0.029, and V = 12.993 ± 0.052) stars of mass 1.212 ± 0.050 M⊙ and 1.255+0.107 −0.054 M⊙. The stars are at the main sequence turnoff. While it is well known that the radii of close-in giant planets are correlated with their equilibrium temperatures, whether or not the radii of planets increase in time as their hosts evolve and become more luminous is an open question. Looking at the broader sample of well- characterized close-in transiting giant planets, we find that there is a statistically significant correlation between planetary radii and the fractional ages of their host stars, with a false alarm probability of only 0.0041%. We find that the correlation between the radii of planets and the fractional ages of their hosts is fully explained by the known correlation between planetary radii and their present day equilibrium temperatures, however if the zero-age main sequence equilibrium temperature is used in place of the present day equilibrium temperature then a correlation with age must also be included to explain the planetary radii. This suggests that, after contracting during the pre-main-sequence, close-in giant planets are re-inflated over time due to the increasing level of irradiation received from their host stars. Prior theoretical work indicates that such a dynamic response to irradiation requires a significant fraction of the incident energy to be deposited deep within the planetary interiors.
