This paper analyzed the heterogeneous product information for industrial cluster. It plays an important role in collaboration of enterprise and product information inquires in industrial cluster. The paper presented globe product data model based on PLIB standard. The globe classification structure and properties definition were given as the globe ontology for industrial cluster. The product class was expressed by general model class and function model class. The class is defined with the properties. The class and properties for injection machine were described as an example. According to the globe product data model, the integration framework can make the integration of heterogeneous product information and provide the unique inquire interface for the end customer. The integration framework was presented and analyzed.

<p>Industrial cluster concept has become a policy reference for regional economic development in various countries. Industrial clusters are defined as the geographic proximity of firms that are interconnected with each other with related institutions in a particular field, linked by commonalities and complementarities. Reflecting on the success of several developed and developing countries successfully developing industrial clusters, the Government of Indonesia sets an industry cluster approach to enhance competitiveness and accelerate economic development as set forth in Peta Panduan Pengembangan Klaster Industri Prioritas Tahun 2010-2014. Nevertheless, industrial cluster concept is a multidimensional and complex. In many discussions, industrial cluster concepts assessed without regard to the scientific components contained therein, leading to the failure of implementation this concept. Empirically, in Indonesia, the industry is dominated by SMEs naturally agglomerate, while theoretically, industrial agglomeration is an embryo of an industrial cluster. Therefore, researcher is interested to identify the potential clusters of the case of wooden furniture industry in Subosukawonosraten based on the spatial distribution of the industry. The method in this study using case study method which consist<em> Average Nearest Neighbor</em> analysis to identify industrial agglomeration and continued with descriptive qualitative analysis techniques. Industrial agglomeration through several phase to be ideal industrial cluster. There are four agglomeration of wooden furniture industry which potentially develop into cluster in Subosukawonosraten. Agglomeration of wooden furniture industry in Sragen, Boyolali, and Karanganyar is the most potential to develop into cluster compared to others. That is industrial agglomeration which is in phase closest to ideal industrial cluster seen based on agglomeration size, type of actor, collaboration between actors, and market area.</p>

The present knowledge of the three-dimensional structure of ribosomes is far too limited to enable a complete understanding of the various roles which ribosomes play in protein biosynthesis. The spatial arrangement of proteins and ribonuclec acids in ribosomes can be analysed in many ways. Determination of binding sites for individual proteins on ribonuclec acid and locations of the mutual positions of proteins on the ribosome using labeling with fluorescent dyes, cross-linking reagents, neutron-diffraction or antibodies against ribosomal proteins seem to be most successful approaches. Structure and function of ribosomes can be correlated be depleting the complete ribosomes of some proteins to the functionally inactive core and by subsequent partial reconstitution in order to regain active ribosomal particles.

Introduction: Oxidized cholesterol derivatives have been demonstrated in various cell cultures to be very potent inhibitors of 3-hvdroxy-3- methylglutaryl Coenzyme A reductase which is a principle regulator of cholesterol biosynthesis in the cell. The cholesterol content in the cells exposed to oxidized cholesterol was found to be markedly decreased. In aortic smooth muscle cells, the potency of this effect was closely related to the cytotoxicity of each derivative. Furthermore, due to the similarity of their molecular structure to that of cholesterol, these oxidized cholesterol derivatives might insert themselves into the cell membrane, alter membrane structure and function and eventually cause cell death. Arterial injury has been shown to be the initial event of atherosclerosis.

The first visual cortical axons arrive in the cat superior colliculus by the time of birth. Adultlike receptive fields develop slowly over several weeks following birth. The developing cortical axons go through a sequence of changes before acquiring their adultlike morphology and function. To determine how these axons interact with neurons in the colliculus, cortico-collicular axons were labeled with biocytin (an anterograde neuronal tracer) and studied with electron microscopy.Deeply anesthetized animals received 200-500 nl injections of biocytin (Sigma; 5% in phosphate buffer) in the lateral suprasylvian visual cortical area. After a 24 hr survival time, the animals were deeply anesthetized and perfused with 0.9% phosphate buffered saline followed by fixation with a solution of 1.25% glutaraldehyde and 1.0% paraformaldehyde in 0.1M phosphate buffer. The brain was sectioned transversely on a vibratome at 50 μm. The tissue was processed immediately to visualize the biocytin.

Structure and function of intercellular junctions were studied under the electronmicroscope using conventional thin sectioning and freeze-etch replicas. Alterations of tight and gap junctions were analyzed 1. of exocrine pancreatic cells under cell isolation conditions and pancreatic duct ligation and 2. of hepatocytes during extrahepatic cholestasis.During the different steps of cell isolation of exocrine pancreatic cells, gradual changes of tight and gap junctions were observed. Tight junctions, which formed belt-like structures around the apex of control acinar cells in situ, subsequently diminished, became interrupted and were concentrated into macular areas (Fig. 1). Aggregations of membrane associated particles, which looked similar to gap junctions, were intermixed within tight junctional areas (Fig. 1). These structures continously disappeared in the last stages of the isolation procedure. The intercellular junctions were finally separated without destroying the integrity of the cell membrane, which was confirmed with porcion yellow, lanthanum chloride and horse radish peroxidase.

Ribosomes are ribonucleoprotein particles necessary for processing the genetic information of mRNA into proteins. Analogy in composition and function of ribosomes from diverse species, established by biochemical and biological assays, implies their structural similarity. Direct evidence obtained by electron microscopy seems to be of increasing relevance in understanding the structure of ribosomes and the mechanism of their role in protein synthesis.The extent of the structural homology between prokaryotic and eukaryotic ribosomes has been studied on ribosomes of Escherichia coli (E.c.) and Artemia salina (A.s.). Despite the established differences in size and in the amount and proportion of ribosomal proteins and RNAs both types of ribosomes show an overall similarity. The monosomes (stained with 0.5% aqueous uranyl acetate and deposited on a fine carbon support) appear in the electron micrographs as round particles with a diameter of approximately 225Å for the 70S E.c. (Fig. 1) and 260Å for the 80S A.s. monosome (Fig. 2).
