2-hydroxycyclohexanone 2-monooxygenase

In enzymology, a 2-hydroxycyclohexanone 2-monooxygenase (EC 1.14.13.66) is an enzyme that catalyzes the chemical reaction 2-hydroxycyclohexan-1-one + NADPH + H+ + O2 ⇌ {\displaystyle \rightleftharpoons } 6-hydroxyhexan-6-olide + NADP+ + H2OThe 4 substrates of this enzyme are 2-hydroxycyclohexan-1-one, NADPH, H+, and O2, whereas its 3 products are 6-hydroxyhexan-6-olide, NADP+, and H2O. This enzyme belongs to the family of oxidoreductases, specifically those acting on paired donors, with O2 as oxidant and incorporation or reduction of oxygen. The oxygen incorporated need not be derived from O2 with NADH or NADPH as one donor, and incorporation of one atom o oxygen into the other donor. The systematic name of this enzyme class is 2-hydroxycyclohexan-1-one,NADPH:oxygen 2-oxidoreductase (1,2-lactonizing).

First Ottoman–Venetian War

The First Ottoman–Venetian War was fought between the Republic of Venice and her allies and the Ottoman Empire from 1463 to 1479. Fought shortly after the capture of Constantinople and the remnants of the Byzantine Empire by the Ottomans, it resulted in the loss of several Venetian holdings in Albania and Greece, most importantly the island of Negroponte (Euboea), which had been a Venetian protectorate for centuries. The war also saw the rapid expansion of the Ottoman navy, which became able to challenge the Venetians and the Knights Hospitaller for supremacy in the Aegean Sea. In the closing years of the war, however, the Republic managed to recoup its losses by the de facto acquisition of the Crusader Kingdom of Cyprus.

The group, led by Alois Muna, was expelled from the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia on June 29, 1929 after they had refused to accept the new party leadership under Klement Gottwald. Muna, Alois Neurath, Václav Bolen, Václav Houser, Bohumil Jilek, Josef Skalák and František Toužil, all prominent leaders of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia, were purged at a plenary of the Central Committee on June 1–2, 1929.The parliamentary club of the 'Leninists' was formed on June 3, 1929 with 11 members of the Chamber of Deputies and 9 Senators. The group initially published Komunista ('Communist'), after which they founded the newspaper Obrana Svobody ('Defending Freedom') as their new central organ, published from Kladno.The 'Leninist' split weakened the position of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia among intellectuals. The group merged into the Czechoslovak Social Democratic Workers Party on August 10, 1930.

USS Actus

Soon after the United States entered World War I, Actus (SP-516) — a yacht constructed in 1907 at Neponset, Massachusetts, by George Lawley & Sons — was taken over by the US Navy as a section patrol craft from Mr. E. B. Dane; commissioned on 1 April 1917, with Ensign H. A. D. Cameron, USNR, in command; and, on 26 May 1917, over a month later, formally purchased by the Government.Assigned to the 1st Naval District, Actus spent the entire war patrolling Cape Cod Bay and the harbors of Boston and Plymouth. After the war ended in November 1918, she continued to serve the Navy at the Boston Navy Yard in some type of yard craft status. She also performed some unspecified service for the Naval Overseas Transportation Service office at Boston in May and June 1919. She was decommissioned at Quincy, Mass., on 8 July 1919. A little over a year later, on 20 July 1920, she was transferred to the War Department. Presumably, her name was struck from the Navy list at about the same time.The vessel was an Engineer Corps survey boat based in Savannah, Georgia in 1921.

Margaret Wotton, Marchioness of Dorset

Margaret Wotton, Marchioness of Dorset (1485 – 6 October 1535) was the second wife of Thomas Grey, 2nd Marquess of Dorset, and the mother of his children, including Henry Grey, 1st Duke of Suffolk, with whom she engaged in many quarrels during his minority over money and his allowance. Her lack of generosity to Henry shocked her peers as unmotherly, and inappropriate behaviour toward a high-ranking nobleman, relative of King Henry VIII of England. In 1534, she was compelled to answer to the charges that she was an "unnatural mother".On 10 September 1533, she stood as one of the godmothers of the future Queen Elizabeth I of England.

Arica y Parinacota Region

The Arica y Parinacota Region (Spanish: Región de Arica y Parinacota pronounced [aˈɾika i paɾinaˈkota]) is one of Chile's 16 first order administrative divisions. It comprises two provinces, Arica and Parinacota. It borders Peru's Department of Tacna to the north, Bolivia's La Paz and Oruro departments to the east and Chile's Tarapacá Region to the south. Arica y Parinacota is the 5th smallest, the 3rd least populous and the 6th least densely populated of the regions of Chile. Arica is the region's capital and largest city. The region was a former Peruvian province, which was occupied by Chile under the 1883 Treaty of Ancón at the close of the War of the Pacific, and then formally annexed in 1929 by the Treaty of Lima. Following annexation, Arica y Parinacota went through a process of forced acculturation known as Chilenization with the aim of creating a dominance of Chilean traditions and culture.

B3GALNT1

UDP-GalNAc:beta-1,3-N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase 1 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the B3GALNT1 gene.This gene is a member of the beta-1,3-galactosyltransferase (beta3GalT) gene family. This family encodes type II membrane-bound glycoproteins with diverse enzymatic functions using different donor substrates (UDP-galactose and UDP-N-acetylgalactosamine) and different acceptor sugars (N-acetylglucosamine, galactose, N-acetylgalactosamine). The beta3GalT genes are distantly related to the Drosophila Brainiac gene and have the protein coding sequence contained in a single exon. The beta3GalT proteins also contain conserved sequences not found in the beta4GalT or alpha3GalT proteins. The carbohydrate chains synthesized by these enzymes are designated as type 1, whereas beta4GalT enzymes synthesize type 2 carbohydrate chains. The ratio of type 1:type 2 chains changes during embryogenesis. By sequence similarity, the beta3GalT genes fall into at least two groups: beta3GalT4 and 4 other beta3GalT genes (beta3GalT1-3, beta3GalT5). The encoded protein of this gene does not use N-acetylglucosamine as an acceptor sugar at all. Multiple transcript variants that are alternatively spliced in the 5' UTR have been described; they all encode the same protein.
