The discovery of telomeric repeats in interstitial regions of plant chromosomes (ITRs) through molecular cytogenetic techniques was achieved several decades ago.However, the information is scattered and has not been critically evaluated from an evolutionary perspective.Based on the analysis of currently available data, it is shown that ITRs are wid
Abstract Background Tandem mass spectrometry (MS MS) and simple fluorometric assays are currently used in newborn screening programs to detect inborn errors of metabolism (IEM).The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical utility of exome sequencing as a second tier screening method to assist clinical diagnosis of the newborn.Methods A novel P
Abstract TL1A (TNFSF15) is a TNF superfamily ligand which can bind the TNFRSF member death receptor 3 (DR3) on T cells and the Projectiles soluble decoy receptor DcR3.Engagement of DR3 on CD4+ or CD8+ effector T cells by TL1A induces downstream signaling, leading to proliferation and an increase in secretion of inflammatory cytokines.We designed a
Early warning system earthquake alerts exploit the time delay that the surface waves have in reference to the P waves and estimate the magnitude based on the interpretation of the specific parameters of the P waves.One of the most commonly used parameters for estimating the moment magnitude Beauty of an earthquake is the characteristic period measu
Tricresyl phosphate (TCP) is an organophosphorous neurotoxin that has been detected in water, soil and Outdoor Serving Cart air.Exposure to TCP in cockpit and cabin air poses a severe threat to flight safety and the health of the aircraft cabin occupants.Conventional methods for the detection of TCP in various samples are gas or liquid chromatograp
