## Abstract In this paper, I raise the question of whether psychological citizenship (i.e. the subjective sense of being a citizen) is necessarily intertwined with a sense of national identity in our contemporary world. First, I argue that psychological citizenship is always dependent upon a sense

Abstract
Recent theorizing on citizenship encourages a broader consideration of the degree to which individuals are able to participate in social life without valued elements of their selfβdefinition being compromised. This paper seeks to illustrate how social psychology can contribute to such an approach through providing an analysis of British Muslims' accounts of how others orient to their religious and national identities. The data are qualitative and derived from interviews with 28 Muslims. The analysis focuses on participants' accounts of how, in everyday interaction, others' assumptions about their religious identity affected their abilities to act on terms that were their own and how this constrained their abilities to speak and be heard in the public sphere. The wider significance of these data for struggles over citizenship and the recognition of identities are discussed. Copyright Β© 2011 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

Based on a study involving structural comparisons of proteins sharing 25% or less sequence identity, three rounds of Psi-BLAST appear capable of identifying remote evolutionary homologs with greater than 95% confidence provided that more than 50% of the query sequence can be aligned with the target
A substantial fraction of protein sequences derived from genomic analyses is currently classified as representing 'hypothetical proteins of unknown function'. In part, this reflects the limitations of methods for comparison of sequences with very low identity. We evaluated the effectiveness of a Psi
