    Summary: European rural landscapes as we experience them today are the result of ongoing processes and interactions between nature and society. These are changing fast: the future landscapes will be different from those we know currently. Written for academics, policy-makers and practitioners, this book is the first to explore the complex histories of rural landscapes in Europe as a basis for their sound governance in future. Tensions between the needs of agricultural spaces driven by economic incentives and a variety of non-agricultural functions are explored to demonstrate current challenges and the shortfalls in the policies that address them. Using inspiring case studies that highlight the roles of regional agents and communities, the authors go further than the usual analyses to illustrate the importance of local context. Written by experts currently working to revitalise the rural landscapes of Europe, the text concludes with suggestions for improving landscape policy and planning practice.

    Earlier the existence of two conformers of Phe-tRNAPhe of E. coli was demonstrated because one of them yields complexes with 70S-poly(U) of extremely high affinity and the other with at least a 105 lower binding constant. We denote the first conformer as HAC (high affinity conformer) and the second as LAC (low affinity conformer). This high difference in binding constants was used for studying the process of reversible interconversion of conformers of Phe-tRNAPhe. The transition kinetics of LAC to HAC in conditions when the latter is stable (in the presence of magnesium ions) was studied and a high value of activation energy (35 kcal/mole) found. The interconversion is the first order reaction and equilibrium does not depend of overall Phe-tRNA concentration.
