This paper discusses urban sustainable development by comparing two approaches: a place-based sustainability approach which focuses the direct and often production based impacts on a region, and a system-based approach which reveals the indirect and consumption based effects of globalised patterns of production, consumption and trade. Malmö, a small/middle-sized city in Sweden, is used as a case s

Members of the REST gene family characteristically have a transcription unit consisting of three exons. The first and the last exon are conserved among members, while the second exon--encoding almost all of the mature protein--differs considerably. The so far known REST genes are highly, and almost exclusively, expressed in the seminal vesicles. By sequence analysis we have now identified the gene
