DO LEADING OR LAGGING FIRMS LEARN MORE FROM EXPORTING ?

In this study, we examine when venture capital firms (VCFs) learn from their portfolio companies (PFCs). Relying primarily on learning and behavioral theories, we develop hypotheses regarding the effects of prior experience, knowledge overlap,…

Coupling of leading- and lagging-strand DNA synthesis at replication forks formed at Escherichia coli oriC has been studied in vitro using a replication system reconstituted with purified proteins. At low concentrations of primase (8 nM), the major…

The activity ratio of DNA polymerases delta and alpha in calf thymus was found to be invariably 1:1, irrespective of extraction procedure (8 types) and subcellular localization (cytoplasm, nucleus and microsomes). This was established by separation…

Ohio's Butler Tech has been able to improve its student performance results from near the worst in Ohio to among the best in six years. At Butler Tech, performance measures are collected and analyzed on a regular basis at all levels of the…

In this paper, drawing from the learning from failure perspective, we argue that firms that have experienced prior terminations are less likely to have their future alliance terminated. Our key argument is that prior terminations will enable firms…

The fidelity of replication has evolved to reproduce B-form DNA accurately, while allowing a low frequency of mutation. The fidelity of replication can be compromised, however, by defined order sequence DNA (dosDNA) that can adopt unusual or non…

The two DNA strands of the nuclear genome are replicated asymmetrically using three DNA polymerases, α, δ, and ε. Current evidence suggests that DNA polymerase ε (Pol ε) is the primary leading strand replicase, whereas Pols α and δ primarily perform…

Analysis of mammalian mtDNA by two-dimensional agarose gel electrophoresis revealed two classes of replication intermediate. One was resistant to single-strand nuclease digestion and displayed the mobility properties of coupled leading- and lagging-…

A major pathway of mutagenesis in Escherichia coli is mediated by the inducible SOS response. Current models of SOS mutagenesis invoke the interaction of RecA and UmuD'(2)C proteins with a stalled DNA replication complex at sites of DNA lesions or…

The coordinated synthesis of both leading and lagging DNA strands is thought to involve a dimeric DNA polymerase and a looping of the lagging strand so that both strands can be synthesized in the same direction. We have constructed a minicircle with…
