The v-ski oncogene is a truncated version of the cellular proto-oncogene, c-ski, and lacks sequences coding for both the N- and C-terminal ends of the c-ski protein. In the region of overlap, v-ski and c-ski differ by only one amino acid. To determine whether these differences underlie v-ski's oncogenic activation, we have cloned cDNAs for several alternatively spliced c-ski mRNAs and introduce...

Winter sports off the marked slopes are becoming more popular. All in uncontrolled and mountainous terrain combined with risks claim fatalities every year. This study investigates circumstances, causes epidemiological aspects of two most common winter outside prepared slopes. retrospective deals off-slope reported to authorities Canton Berne, Switzerland, between 2001 2019. The cases were exami...

OBJECTIVE To examine the seasonal distribution of tendon ruptures in a large cohort of patients from Vancouver, Canada. DESIGN Retrospective chart review. SETTING Acute Achilles tendon rupture cases that occurred from 1987 to 2010 at an academic hospital in Vancouver, Canada. Information was extracted from an orthopaedic database. PARTICIPANTS No direct contact was made with the participa...

this study examined the relationship between tourists' motivations and satisfaction in tehran ski resorts. the study was a descriptive study and of correlation kind and conducted as a field study. the statistical population consisted of all tourists of tehran ski resorts (dizin, shemshak, tochal and abali). according to the estimates of the managers of these ski resorts, the statistical po...

Ski is a nuclear oncoprotein, and possibly a transcriptional factor, that has been shown to be involved in both transformation and myogenesis. In attempts to understand the molecular mechanisms underlying the function of Ski, the protein-protein interactions of Ski with itself and with its close relative, SnoN, were investigated. It was found that while both v-Ski and c-Ski bound themselves and...

Mature civil engineering software and platforms can provide a dynamic correlated situation of the road design, generate quick accurate grading design in terrain model making, and, most importantly, improve efficiency calculation accuracy reduce workload designers construction project. However, application existing complex site for ski tracks has not been well developed. The process requires con...

Increasing production of artificial snow in ski resorts is controversially discussed, but only few investigations have been carried out systematically to specify the environmental impacts. We measured snow depth and density from groomed ski pistes (runs) with compacted snow and their effects on ground temperatures and timing of snowmelt. We analyzed groomed pistes with and without artificial sn...

There are many studies on the determinants of visitor spending at sport events. However, few investigate effect satisfaction and even fewer relate this to expectations. The present study examines case World Ski Championships 2015 which were held in Falun, Sweden. A particular focus is if how influences visitors’ expenditures. It hypothesized argued that depends relative prior empirically found ...
