Branched chain a-ketoacid dehydrogenase (BCKDH) deficiency results in maple syrup urine disease (MSUD). We examined the molecular basis of familial cases ofMSUD by analyzing the activity, subunit structure, mRNA sequence, and genome structure of the affected enzyme. The BCKDH activity in the proband with MSUD was 6% ofthe normal control level. Immunoblot analysis revealed that the ElB subunit o...

Message Passing with Maple

In this report we document a software package under development to allow message passing in the MPI model using the computer algebra system Maple. The new software, called maplle, consists of two components, a set of Maple functions and a MPI/C driver. The maplle system allows the user to easily parallelize Maple algorithms and use message passing functionality familiar to MPI users in a Maple ...

Summation in Maple

Maple s sum command is a general purpose procedure to calculate di erent types of sums Algorithms for the computation of both inde nite and de nite sums are available Roberto Pirastu gave an excellent overview about rational summation and we take his article as a starting point for ours and thus will not focus on the rational case We will instead discuss three important methods for more general...

Maple syrup urine disease

Maple syrup urine disease (MSUD) is an autosomal recessive condition with an incidence of approximately 1 in 150 000 live births with a higher incidence amongst children from consanguineous relationships [1]. It is caused by an enzymatic deficiency with reduction in oxidative decarboxylation of branched-chain amino acids (BCAA) (leucine, isoleucine and valine) resulting in elevated levels and t...
