Turning the attention to the temporal as well as the more familiar spatial dimensions of mobility, this volume focuses on the momentum for and temporal composition of mobility, the rate at which people enact or deploy their movements as well as the conditions under which these moves are being marshalled, represented and contested. This is an anthropological exploration of temporality as a form of action, a process of actively modulating or responding to how people are moving rather than the more usual focus in mobility studies on where they are heading.

Moving, slowing down, or watching others moving allows people to cross physical, symbolic, and temporal boundaries. Exploring the imaginative power of liminality that makes this possible, Liminal Moves looks at the (im)mobilities of three groups of people - street monkey performers in Japan, adolescents writing about migrants in Italy, and men accompanying their partners in Switzerland for work. The book explores how, for these ‘travelers’, the interplay of mobility and immobility creates a ‘liminal hotspot’: a condition of suspension and ambivalence as they find themselves caught between places, meanings and times.

This book explores mobilities as a key to understanding the practices that both frame and generate contemporary everyday life in the urban context. At the same time, it investigates the challenges arising from the interpretation of mobility as a socio-spatial phenomenon both in the social sciences and in urban studies. Leading sociologists, economists, urban planners and architects address the ways in which spatial mobilities contribute to producing diversified uses of the city and describe forms and rhythms of different life practices, including unexpected uses and conflicts. The individual sections of the book focus on the role of mobility in transforming contemporary cities; the consequences of interpreting mobility as a socio-spatial phenomenon for urban projects and policies; the conflicts and inequalities generated by the co-presence of different populations due to mobility and by the interests gathered around major mobility projects; and the use of new data and mapping of mobilities to enhance comprehension of cities. The theoretical discussion is complemented by references to practical experiences, helping readers gain a broader understanding of mobilities in relation to the capacity to analyze, plan and design contemporary cities.

The molecular characterization of RNA and its interactions with proteins is an important and exciting area of current research. Organisms utilize a variety of RNA–protein interactions to regulate the expression of their genes. This is particularly true for eukaryotes, since newly synthesized messenger RNA must be extensively modified and transported to the cytoplasm before it can be used for protein synthesis. The realization that posttranscriptional processes are critical components of gene regulation has sparked an explosion of interest in both stable ribonucleoprotein (RNP) complexes and transient RNA–protein interactions. RNA is conformationally flexible and can adopt complex structures that provide diverse surfaces for interactions with proteins. The fact that short RNA molecules (aptamers; see Chapter 16) can be selected to bind many different types of molecules is evidence of the structural variability of RNA. RNA molecules are rarely entirely single- or double-stranded, but usually contain multiple short duplexes interrupted by single-stranded loops and bulges; in some RNAs, such as tRNAs, the short duplexes stack on each other. Further variability is generated by the presence of non-Watson-Crick base pairs, modified nucleotides, and more complex structures, such as pseudoknots and triple-strand interactions.
