When the membrane receptor Fas binds its ligand, Fas ligand (FasL), an apoptotic cascade is initiated in the cell bearing the Fas receptor. The same can be said about the tumor necrosis factor receptor-1 (TNFR1) and its ligand, TNF-␣. In this study we have shown that the mRNAs of both sets of ligand

## Abstract The process of allorecognition consists of an ability to discriminate self from non‐self. This discrimination is used either to identify non‐self cells and reject them (“non‐self histocompatibility”) or to identify self cells and reject them (as in the avoidance of self‐fertilization by
## Molecular basis of lipase stereoselectivity Lipases exhibit specific catalytic properties that make them attractive to biotechnological applications. Most important are the broad substrate specificity and the regio-and stereoselectivity of lipases. Despite mechanistic and structural similaritie
