This paper develops a micro-founded general equilibrium model of payments to study the impact central bank digital currency (CBDC) on intermediation private banks. If banks have market power in deposit market, CBDC can enhance competition, raising rate, expanding intermediation, and increasing output. A calibration US economy suggests that raise lending by 1.57% output 0.19%. These crowding-in effects remain robust, albeit with smaller magnitudes, after taking into account endogenous entry....
To what extent does a central bank digital currency (CBDC) compete with deposits? answer this question, we develop and estimate structural model where each household chooses financial institution to deposit their money. Households value the interest paid on money, possibility of obtaining complementary products, access in-branch services. A non-interest-bearing CBDC that not provide products can substantially crowd out deposits only if it provides an extensive service network. Imposing large...
This paper develops a micro-founded general equilibrium model of payments to study the impact central bank digital currency (CBDC) on intermediation private banks. If banks have market power in deposit market, CBDC can enhance competition, raising rate, expanding intermediation, and increasing output. A calibration United States economy suggests that raise lending by 1.96% output 0.21%. These ``crowding-in'' effects remain robust, albeit with smaller magnitudes, after taking into account...
The involvement of phytochrome in the control levels RNA transcribed from maize plastid and nuclear genes was examined. effects illumination with red light, far-red or light followed by on relative amounts RNAs complementary to for large subunit ribulose bisphosphate carboxylase (RuBPCase); 32-kilodalton thylakoid membrane triazine herbicide binding B protein photosystem II; alpha, beta, epsilon subunits CF(1); III (proton-translocating) CF(0); reaction center proteins A1 A2 I; two other...
Fabry disease is caused by a deficiency of α-galactosidase A (GLA) leading to the lysosomal accumulation globotriaosylceramide (Gb3) and other glycosphingolipids. patients experience significant damage heart, kidney, blood vessels that can be fatal. Here we apply directed evolution generate more stable GLA variants as potential next generation treatments for disease. GLAv05 GLAv09 were identified after screening than 12,000 through 8 rounds evolution. Both exhibit increased stability at both...
This paper considers a digital economy where central-bank-issued fiat moneycompetes with privately-issued currency. We find thata welfare-maximizing central bank has an incentive to raise inflation in the money presence of can lead high and low welfare simultaneous move game currency issuer maximizes profit. Welfare may be higher if only from part that uses instead maximizing total welfare.
ABSTRACT In Rhodospirillum rubrum , NifA, the transcriptional activator for nif genes, is posttranslationally activated only by uridylylated form of GlnB, one three P II homologs in organism. We have used yeast two-hybrid system to detect variants GlnB that interact better with NifA than does wild-type GlnB. When examined physiological effects R. these GlnB* presence NH 4 + which normally blocks activation completely, and absence GlnD, whose uridylylation also essential activation. were...
The activity of NifA, the transcriptional activator nitrogen fixation (nif) gene, is tightly regulated in response to ammonium and oxygen. However, mechanisms for regulation NifA are quite different among various nitrogen-fixing bacteria. Unlike well-studied NifL-NifA regulatory systems Klebsiella pneumoniae Azotobacter vinelandii, Rhodospirillum rubrum activated by a direct protein-protein interaction with uridylylated form GlnB, which turn causes conformational change NifA. We report...
Unusually among bacteria, actinobacteria possess myo-inositol 1-phosphate synthase (mIPS). In the developmentally complex Streptomyces coelicolor, mIPS-encoding gene (inoA) is cotranscribed with a putative regulatory (inoR). The inoRA transcript was more abundant in an inoR in-frame deletion mutant, and InoR formed different complexes vitro extensive region around promoter. Binding relieved by adding glucose 6-phosphate. Thus, metabolite-sensitive autorepressor that influences inoA...
This paper studies the inference problem of an infinite‐dimensional parameter with a shape restriction. is identified by arbitrarily many unconditional moment equalities. The restriction leads to convex set. I propose test restriction, which controls size uniformly and applies both point‐identified partially models. can be inverted construct confidence sets after imposing Monte Carlo experiments show finite‐sample properties this method. In empirical illustration, apply method ascending...
