Zizers
Zizers ( rm, Zezras) is a municipality in the Landquart Region in the Swiss canton of Graubünden. Zita of Bourbon-Parma, Empress of Austria-Hungary died in Zizers. History Zizers is first mentioned in 824 as ''Zizuris''. Geography Zizers has an area, (as of the 2004/09 survey) of . Of this area, about 39.1% is used for agricultural purposes, while 38.0% is forested. Of the rest of the land, 14.5% is settled (buildings or roads) and 8.4% is unproductive land. In the 2004/09 survey a total of or about 6.9% of the total area was covered with buildings, an increase of over the 1985 amount. Of the agricultural land, is used for orchards and vineyards and is fields and grasslands. Since 1985 the amount of agricultural land has decreased by . Over the same time period the amount of forested land has increased by . Rivers and lakes cover in the municipality. [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Zirnitra
Slavic mythology or Slavic religion is the religious beliefs, myths, and ritual practices of the Slavs before Christianisation, which occurred at various stages between the 8th and the 13th century. The South Slavs, who likely settled in the Balkan Peninsula during the 6th–7th centuries AD, bordering with the Byzantine Empire to the south, came under the sphere of influence of Eastern Christianity, beginning with the creation of writing systems for Slavic languages (first Glagolitic, and then Cyrillic script) in 855 by the brothers Saints Cyril and Methodius and the adoption of Christianity in Bulgaria in 863. The East Slavs followed with the official adoption in 988 by Vladimir the Great of Kievan Rus'. The West Slavs' process of Christianization was more gradual and complicated. The Moravians accepted Christianity as early as 831, the Bohemian dukes followed in 845, Slovaks accepted Christianity somewhere between the years 828 and 863, but the Poles accepted it much later, in ...

Zero Input Response
0 (zero) is a number representing an empty quantity. In place-value notation such as the Hindu–Arabic numeral system, 0 also serves as a placeholder numerical digit, which works by multiplying digits to the left of 0 by the radix, usually by 10. As a number, 0 fulfills a central role in mathematics as the additive identity of the integers, real numbers, and other algebraic structures. Common names for the number 0 in English are ''zero'', ''nought'', ''naught'' (), ''nil''. In contexts where at least one adjacent digit distinguishes it from the letter O, the number is sometimes pronounced as ''oh'' or ''o'' (). Informal or slang terms for 0 include ''zilch'' and ''zip''. Historically, ''ought'', ''aught'' (), and ''cipher'', have also been used. Etymology The word ''zero'' came into the English language via French from the Italian , a contraction of the Venetian form of Italian via ''ṣafira'' or ''ṣifr''. In pre-Islamic time the word (Arabic ) had th ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
DOCK (protein)
DOCK (Dedicator of cytokinesis) is a family of related proteins involved in intracellular signalling networks. DOCK family members contain a RhoGEF domain to function as guanine nucleotide exchange factors to promote GDP release and GTP binding to specific Small GTPases of the Rho family (e.g., Rac and Cdc42), leading to their activation since Rho proteins are inactive when bound to GDP but active when bound to GTP. DOCK family proteins are categorised into four subfamilies based on their sequence homology: *DOCK-A subfamily **Dock180 (also known as Dock1) **Dock2 ** Dock5 *DOCK-B subfamily ** Dock3 (also known as MOCA and PBP) ** Dock4 *DOCK-C subfamily (also known as Zir subfamily) **Dock6 (also known as Zir1) ** Dock7 (also known as Zir2) ** Dock8 (also known as Zir3) *DOCK-D subfamily (also known as Zizimin subfamily) **Dock9 (also known as Zizimin1) ** Dock10 (also known as Zizimin3) **Dock11 Dock11 (Dedicator of cytokinesis), also known as Zizimin2, is a large (~240 kDa ...
