Zyxin [SEP] Focal adhesions are actin-rich structures that enable cells to adhere to the extracellular matrix and at which protein complexes involved in signal transduction assemble. Zyxin is a zinc-binding phosphoprotein that concentrates at focal adhesions and along the actin cytoskeleton. Zyxin has an N-terminal proline-rich domain and three LIM domains in its C-terminal half. The proline-rich domain may interact with SH3 domains of proteins involved in signal transduction pathways while the LIM domains are likely involved in protein-protein binding. | 1,860,125 |
Zyxin [SEP] Zyxin may function as a messenger in the signal transduction pathway that mediates adhesion-stimulated changes in gene expression and may modulate the cytoskeletal organization of actin bundles. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants that encode the same isoform. Zyxin has been shown to interact with:
Actinin, alpha 1
ENAH,
LASP1,
LATS1, and
Vasodilator-stimulated phosphoprotein. | 1,860,125 |

Zyxomma petiolatum [SEP] It is a medium-sized chocolate-brown colored dragonfly with emerald-green eyes. Female is similar to the males. It breeds in small pools, ponds, swamps and slow flowing rivers. It is crepuscular but may also be active during overcast days. Usually seen in the evening as an extremely rapid flyer, flying low over water-bodies, hawking midges and mosquitoes. In daytime it roosts among vegetation and can be difficult to find. | 1,860,129 |

Among its many sections was a "pronouncing and defining dictionary of terms, instruments, etc." The dictionary, 252 pages in all, explained the meaning and gave the pronunciation of German, Italian, and other non-English words found in the terminology of classical music. | 1,860,133 |
Zzxjoanw [SEP] At the end of the dictionary, immediately following the entry for zymbel (German for cymbal), Hughes added the following definition:
zzxjoanw (shaw). Maori. 1. Drum. 2. Fife. 3. Conclusion.
The entry was retained when the book was republished under different titles in 1912 and 1939. Zzxjoanw attracted interest from logologists who wrote about it with a mixture of intrigue and skepticism. | 1,860,133 |
Zzxjoanw [SEP] Helene and Charlton Laird included it in their 1957 book The Tree of Language, noting that "perhaps Mr. Hughes is having his little joke, since the word doesn't appear in any other dictionary we've consulted". | 1,860,133 |
Zzxjoanw [SEP] Dmitri Borgmann included the term in his 1965 book, Language on Vacation: An Olio of Orthographical Oddities:
The Music Lovers' Encyclopedia, compiled by Rupert Hughes, revised by Deems Taylor and Russell Kerr, and published in 1954, presents us with one of the most unbelievable, one of the most intriguing letter combinations ever to claim recognition as a word: ZZXJOANW. | 1,860,133 |
Zzxjoanw [SEP] This spectacular word is so versatile that it possesses not merely one, but three different meanings: (a) drum; (b) fife; (c) conclusion. The term is of Maori origin.
In 1974, Mrs. Byrne's Dictionary of Unusual, Obscure, and Preposterous Words, while accepting the word's meaning as a "Māori drum", rejected Hughes' pronunciation of "shaw", proposing a somewhat different version: "ziks-jo'an". | 1,860,133 |
Zzxjoanw [SEP]
Philip M. Cohen first published about zzxjoanw as a potential hoax in a 1976 issue of Word Ways. He highlighted its pronunciation, its unlikely connection to the spelling, its wide variety of meanings, and that one of those meanings, "conclusion", also happened to conclude the reference work in which it appeared. | 1,860,133 |
Zzxjoanw [SEP] He also pointed to its unlikely Māori origin, because "Maori has no closed syllables or consonant clusters, let alone the conglomerations of 'zzxjoanw', nor even an 's' or 'sh' sound. The available Maori dictionaries give words for 'drum' and 'end', but they haven't the slightest resemblance to 'zzxjoanw' or 'shaw'". | 1,860,133 |
Zzxjoanw [SEP] Ross Eckler picked up Cohen's critique in his 1996 book Making the Alphabet Dance, speculating that Hughes may have "expected it to be obvious, but he did not take into account the credulity of logologists, sensitized by dictionary-sanctioned outlandish words such as mlechchha and qaraqalpaq."
The book You Say Tomato: An Amusing and Irreverent Guide to the Most Often Mispronounced Words in the English Language, published in 2005, appears to take the word seriously. | 1,860,133 |
Zzxjoanw [SEP] Citing "eminent alternative lexicographer Mr. Peter Bowler" it gives the meaning as a Māori drum; however, it declines to offer a pronunciation, saying that "We'll leave the pronunciation to the Maoris [sic], although Welshmen and Poles are said to be able to do wonders with it".

Zzyzx, California [SEP] Curtis Howe Springer made up the name Zzyzx and gave it to the area in 1944, claiming it to be the last word in the English language. He established the Zzyzx Mineral Springs and Health Spa in 1944 at the spot, which was federal land, after filing mining claims for 12,000 acres (4,900 ha) surrounding the springs. He used the springs to bottle his water and provide drinks for travelers through the hot desert. Springer also imported animals from around the country to attract more families to visit his ranch. | 1,860,134 |
Zzyzx, California [SEP] He used Zzyzx until 1974 when the land was reclaimed by the government.
In 1976, the Bureau of Land Management and the California State University agreed to cooperatively manage the land in and around Zzyzx, and establish the CSU Desert Studies Center. In 1994, the United States Congress passed the California Desert Protection Act, establishing the Mojave National Preserve on the former BLM land, and further formalized the partnership between the National Park Service and the California State University Desert Studies Center. | 1,860,134 |
Zzyzx, California [SEP] The name appeared as "Zzyzx Springs" in Dmitri Borgmann's 1967 book Beyond Language. | 1,860,134 |
Zzyzx, California [SEP] In 1977, Borgman noted his source as being "an old, undated map of San Bernardino County published by the Automobile Club of Southern California" and repeated his description of the settlement as being "a hydrologic feature and privately owned spa in San Bernardino County, California, about 8.5 miles south of Baker, on the western edge of Soda Dry Lake, off the abandoned right-of-way of the old Tonopah and Tidewater Railroad." | 1,860,134 |
Zzyzx, California [SEP] After Borgmann's book, the 1973 Hammond Ambassador World Atlas began to show the place, labeling it as "Zzyzx" without the "Springs"; the 1976 Rand-McNally Commercial Atlas and Marketing Guide followed suit.
Zzyzx as a settlement, and Zzyzx Spring as a water feature, were approved as a place name by the United States Board on Geographic Names on June 14, 1984. | 1,860,134 |
Zzyzx, California [SEP] As is the case with the road, Zzyzx, California, is the USBGN's lexicographically greatest (alphabetically last, at least in Latin alphabetical order) place name.
Zzyzx has frequently been noted on lists of unusual place names. Zzyzx was declared the "most difficult to pronounce" place name in California by Reader's Digest. The plot of Michael Connelly's 2004 Harry Bosch novel, The Narrows, revolves around a crime committed in Zzyzx. | 1,860,134 |

Zzyzx Rd. (song) [SEP] "Zzyzx Rd." is a love song written to Taylor's wife for helping him in his struggles against alcoholism and contemplation of suicide, a theme he returns to across the album. The road referenced in the title is a 4.5-mile-long (7.2 km), part-paved rural collector road in the Mojave Desert, leading from Interstate 15 to Zzyzx, California, approximately 105 miles (169 km) southwest of Las Vegas, Nevada. | 1,860,135 |
