A multi-layer control scheme for multi-robot formations with adaptive dynamic compensation

Brandao, Alexandre Santos; Martins, Felipe Nascimento (Sensors And Smart Systems); Rampinelli, Vinicius Thiago Lecco; Sarcinelli-Filho, Mario; Bastos-Filho, Teodiano Freire; Carelli, Ricardo

This paper presents a multi-layer scheme to control a formation of three mobile robots. Each layer works as an independent module, dealing with a specific part of the problem of formation control, thus giving to the system more flexibility. In order to reduce formation errors, the proposed architecture …

Saturation mutagenesis reveals the importance of residues alphaR145 and alphaF146 of penicillin acylase in the synthesis of beta-lactam antibiotics

Jager, Simon A W; Shapovalova, Irina V; Jekel, Peter A; Alkema, Wynand B L (Data Science For Life Science & Health); Svedas, Vytas K; Janssen, Dick B

Penicillin acylase (PA) from Escherichia coli can catalyze the coupling of an acyl group to penicillin- and cephalosporin-derived beta-lactam nuclei, a conversion that can be used for the industrial synthesis of beta-lactam antibiotics. The modest synthetic properties of the wild-type enzyme make it …
