The restriction endonuclease Tru9I is a useful tool to analyze telomere sequences separately from interstitial telomeric sequences in Arabidopsis thaliana
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-07)
We have previously described a simple method to analyze the chromatin structure of Arabidopsis telomeres independently of that of Interstitial Telomeric Sequences (ITSs). By using this method, we found that, whereas ITSs ...
Hybrid Amplification: An Efficient Scheme for Energy Saving in MIMO Systems
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-01)
In this paper, a new amplification scheme for adaptive MIMO systems is proposed and tested. In this ‘hybrid amplification’ configuration, different amplifiers with different peak powers are used. In this way, each transmitter ...
Comparative gene expression analysis in stems of Dolichos purpureus and Arabidopsis thaliana
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-01)
The outermost layer epidermis of a plant stem plays an important role in protection and environment-sensing. The mechanisms of sensing and response to the environment through the stem epidermis remain unclear. Here we ...
A peptide of 17 aminoacids from the N-terminal region of maize plastidial transglutaminase is essential for chloroplast targeting
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-07)
Transglutaminases (TGases, EC 2.3.2.13) catalyse posttranslational modification of proteins by establishing ε-(γ-glutamyl) links and covalent conjugation of polyamines. In plants, the functionality of these enzymes is ...
SPOC domain of mint protein induces hematopoietic differentiation via Bmp4/Smad5 pathway
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-10)
Mint is a newly identified molecule that mediates signal transduction and modulates chromatin repression. Mint family members contain a highly conserved C-terminus SPOC domain (SpenParalog and OrthologsC-terminal domain) ...
Biocatalytic production of chitosan polymers from shrimp shells, using a recombinant enzyme produced by pichia pastoris
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-10)
Chitosan has a unique chemical structure with high charge density, reactive hydroxyl and amino groups, and extensive hydrogen bonding. Chitin deacetylase (EC 3.5.1.41) catalyzes the hydrolysis of the N-acetamido groups of ...
Chimeric oncogenic interferon regulatory factor-2 (IRF-2): Degradation products are biologically active
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-10)
Interferon Regulatory Factor-2 (IRF-2) belongs to IRF family, was identified as a mammalian transcrip-tion factor involved in Interferon beta (IFNβ) gene regulation. Besides that IRF-2 is involved in ...
Wireless Hybrid QoS Architecture with an Enhancement of Fair Intelligent Congestion Control
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-07)
More subtle and explicit QoS control mechanisms are required at the radio access level, even though the simple and scalable Differentiated Services (DiffServ) QoS control model is acceptable for the core of the network. ...
Throughput Maximizing Frequency and Power Scheduling for Wireless Ad-Hoc Networks in the Low-SINR Regime
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-07)
We study the problem of frequency and power allocation and scheduling at a time-slotted cognitive ad-hoc wireless network, where cognitive nodes share a number of frequency bands and frequency reuse is allowed. In such a ...
Expression and subcellular localization of a novel gene Bm-X of the silkworm, Bombyx mori
(Scientific Research Publishing, 2012-07)
According to the large-scale sequencing of cDNA library from silkworm pupae, the cDNA of a novel gene with blank research background was identified and temporarily named Bm-X. The length of this cDNA is 778 bp. We obtained ...
