Garden City Regional Airport
Garden City Regional Airport is nine miles southeast of Garden City, in Finney County, Kansas, United States. It sees one scheduled airline, subsidized by the federal government's Essential Air Service program at a cost of $2,919,026 (per year). The National Plan of Integrated Airport Systems for 2021–2025 categorized it as a ''primary commercial service'' airport.

Georges Creek Railway
The Georges Creek Railway is a shortline railroad in Western Maryland that performed contract switching and owns a 14-mile line between Westernport and Carlos. The railroad was headquartered at 119 Pratt Street in Luke in the former Luke Post Office. Gerald Altizer and Pat Stakem are the primary partners in the company. Operating since December 2007 on CSX Transportation and plant trackage, the firm did contract switching services for the Verso (formerly NewPage) Paper Mill in Luke. An article in the ''Baltimore Business Journal'' dated April 30, 2019, announced the closing of the paper mill in Luke by June 30, which affected the employment of the GCK's Alco T-6. Acquisition of the Georges Creek Subdivision The acquisition of track for the Georges Creek Railway began 2005, the year CSX had begun the process of abandoning their Georges Creek Subdivision due to two washouts along the right-of-way and few customers. In December 2005, the deed for the northern 8.54 miles of tr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Glucokinase
Glucokinase () is an enzyme that facilitates phosphorylation of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate. Glucokinase occurs in cells in the liver and pancreas of humans and most other vertebrates. In each of these organs it plays an important role in the regulation of carbohydrate metabolism by acting as a glucose sensor, triggering shifts in metabolism or cell function in response to rising or falling levels of glucose, such as occur after a meal or when fasting. Mutations of the gene for this enzyme can cause unusual forms of diabetes or hypoglycemia. Glucokinase (GK) is a hexokinase isozyme, related homologously to at least three other hexokinases. All of the hexokinases can mediate phosphorylation of glucose to glucose-6-phosphate (G6P), which is the first step of both glycogen synthesis and glycolysis. However, glucokinase is coded by a separate gene and its distinctive kinetic properties allow it to serve a different set of functions. Glucokinase has a lower affinity for glucos ...

MAP4K2
Mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase kinase kinase 2 is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the ''MAP4K2'' gene. Function The protein encoded by this gene is a member of the serine/threonine protein kinase family. Although this kinase is found in many tissues, its expression in lymphoid follicles is restricted to the cells of germinal centre, where it may participate in B-cell differentiation. This kinase can be activated by TNF-alpha, and has been shown to specifically activate MAP kinases. This kinase is also found to interact with TNF receptor-associated factor 2 (TRAF2), which is involved in the activation of MAP3K1/MEKK1. A recent study showed that MAP4K2 is a direct kinase of LATS1/2 and thus regulates the Hippo pathway effectors YAP and TAZ. Interactions MAP4K2 has been shown to interact with RAB8A and TRAF2 TNF receptor-associated factor 2 is a protein that in humans is encoded by the ''TRAF2'' gene. Function The protein encoded by this gene is a member ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
