Hedonic valuation of land protection methods: implications for cluster development.
Published 2014“…The key findings of the study are: (i) proximity to national or state park land and to city or county open space has a significant positive impact on property values, while proximity to national forest land or to privately conserved land exhibits no significant effects; and, (ii) inclusion of a property within a cluster development decreases its value by 17 to 26 %. …”

A slow but steady nanoLuc: R162A mutation results in a decreased, but stable, nanoLuc activity
Published 2024“…In this regard, engineering of brighter bioluminescent proteins, i.e. luciferases, has played a significant role. This is acutely exemplified by the engineering of the NLuc <u>luciferase</u>, which is small in size and displays much enhanced bioluminescence and<u> thermal stability</u> compared to previously available luciferases. …”
