This multicultural city is described by Flavius Josephus as the 'ornament of all Galilee, ' and Rabbi Judah the Prince (ha-Nasi) codified the Mishnah there around 200 CE. The Duke University excavations of the 1980s and 1990s uncovered a large corpus of clay oil lamps in the domestic area of the western summit, and this volume presents these vessels. Richly illustrated with photos and drawings, it describes the various shape-types and includes a detailed catalog of 219 lamps. The volume also explores the origins of the Sepphoris lamps and establishes patterns of their trade, transport, and sale in the lower city's marketplace. A unique contribution is the use of a combined petrographic and direct current plasma-optical emission spectrometric (dcp-oes) analysis of selected lamp fabrics from sites in Israel and Jordan. This process provided valuable information, indicating that lamps found in Sepphoris came from Judea, the Decapolis, and even Greece, suggesting an urban community fully engaged with other regional centers. Lamp decorations also provide information about the cosmopolitan culture of Sepphoris in antiquity. Discus lamps with erotic scenes and mythological characters suggest Greco-Roman influences, and menorahs portrayed on lamps indicate a vibrant Jewish identity"--Provided by publisher.Sepphoris excavation reports ;volume 2.Pottery, Ancientfast(OCoLC)fst01073658Manners and customsfast(OCoLC)fst01007815LightingSocial aspectsfast(OCoLC)fst00998661Lamps, Ancientfast(OCoLC)fst00991184Commercefast(OCoLC)fst00869279Ceramic lampsfast(OCoLC)fst00850972Antiquitiesfast(OCoLC)fst00810745LightingSocial aspectsIsraelSepphoris (Extinct city)Excavations (Archaeology)IsraelSepphoris (Extinct city)Pottery, AncientIsraelSepphoris (Extinct city)Lamps, AncientIsraelSepphoris (Extinct city)CatalogsCeramic lampsIsraelSepphoris (Extinct city)CatalogsLamps, AncientIsraelSepphoris (Extinct city)Ceramic lampsIsraelSepphoris (Extinct city)IsraelSepphoris (Extinct city)fastIsraelfastSepphoris (Extinct city)CommerceIsraelHistorySepphoris (Extinct city)Social life and customsSepphoris (Extinct city)AntiquitiesHistory.Catalogs.Electronic books.

The TA systems regulate fundamental cellular processes, facilitate survival under stress conditions, have essential roles in virulence and represent potential therapeutic targets. These genetic TA loci are also shown to be involved in the maintenance of successful multidrug-resistant mobile genetic elements. The TA systems are classified as types I to VI, according to the nature of the antitoxin and to the mode of toxin inhibition. Type II TA systems encode a labile antitoxin and its stable toxin; degradation of the antitoxin renders a free toxin, which is bacteriostatic by nature. A free toxin generates a reversible state with low metabolic activity (quiescence) by affecting important functions of bacterial cells such as transcription, translation, DNA replication, replication and cell-wall synthesis, biofilm formation, phage predation, the regulation of nucleotide pool, etc., whereas antitoxins are toxin inhibitors. Under stress conditions, the TA systems might form networks. To understand the basis of the unique response of TA systems to stress, the prime causes of the emergence of drug-resistant strains, and their contribution to therapy failure and the development of chronic and recurrent infections, must be known in order to grasp how TA systems contribute to the mechanisms of phenotypic heterogeneity and pathogenesis that will enable the rational development of new treatments for infections caused by pathogens.Medicinebicsscaddictionanti-addictionantibacterial agentsantibiotic resistanceantitoxinbacteriabacterial cell deathbacterial persistencebiofilmcell wall inhibitionclinical origincognate interactionscross-interactionscross-resistancecross-talkenvironmental originFst/Ldr familyKlebsiella pneumoniaeM. tuberculosismazFmolecular insulationmRNA interferasen/aNAD+nucleotide hydrolysisopportunistic pathogenpathogenesisPemI/PemKpersistenceprotein interfaceprotein-protein interactionssmall protein toxin structureStenotrophomonas maltophiliastress-responseTA systemstolerancetoxintoxin activationtoxin-antitoxintoxin-antitoxin systemtoxin-antitoxin systemtoxin-antitoxin systemstoxin-antitoxin systemstuberculosistype I toxin-antitoxin systemtype IIuridine diphosphate-N-acetylglucosamineX-ray crystallographyMedicineAlonso Juan Carlosedt1339342Alonso Juan CarlosothBOOK9910674020103321Toxin-Antitoxin Systems in Pathogenic Bacteria3060081UNINA
