Cell division cycle 25 (cdc25) is an evolutionarily conserved phosphatase that promotes cell cycle progression. Among the four cdc25 orthologs in Caenorhabditis elegans, we found that cdc-25.4 mutant males failed to produce outcrossed progeny. This was not caused by defects in sperm development, but by defects in male mating behavior. The cdc-25.4 mutant males showed various defects during male...

During the American sector of coronavirus pandemic there have been missteps and yet other successes. Two vaccines came from basic research on doping cells with synthetic messenger RNA, pioneered in part US labs.1 The mobilized not only scientific talent but also government, as appropriate. At federal level, National Institutes Health (NIH) stood tall start. Another agency, Centers for Disease C...

The mission of CDC is to promote health and quality of life by preventing and controlling disease, injury, and disability. As the nation’s prevention agency, CDC accomplishes its mission by working with partners throughout the nation and the world to monitor health, formulate prevention strategies, develop sound public health policies, implement prevention strategies, promote healthy behaviors,...

Full simulation of the CDC cathode data is made with the image charge method and ion statistical model. The model well reproduces the actual cathode charge distribution and shows reasonable agreement of the spatial resolution with the measurement. The simulation code is implemented in GSIM and lls raw data table, hence this can be used in studying tracking trigger and developing reconstruction ...

The electrochemical quartz crystal microbalance (EQCM) technique has been used to study the charge mechanisms in two TiC-derived nanoporous carbons (CDC), synthesized at 800 ? and 1100 ?. These have a similar pore size porous volume, but CDC prepared °C shows more graphitic microstructure. EQCM revealed that storage mechanism CDC-800 is mainly controlled by counter-ion adsorption process, while...

CDC 25 is a dual phosphatase responsible for dephosphorylation and, thus, activation of CDC 2 kinase in G2. Abnormal activation of cyclin B-associated CDC 2 kinase has been implicated in apoptosis induced by cancer chemotherapeutic agents such as paclitaxel (Taxol) and etoposide (VP-16). In this study, we found that the CDC 2 kinase could be transiently activated when nasopharyngeal carcinoma N...
