Serum from a patient with multiple myeloma showed a monoclonal protein, classified by immunoelectrophoresis as IgD. Immunofixation electrophoresis and immunoelectrophoresis failed to demonstrate a precipitation reaction between the paraprotein and antisera to immunoglobulin light chains. The light chains of the monoclonal protein, immunologically inaccessible in the intact molecule, reacted wit...

A phage directing the synthesis of an abundant 45-kD Treponema pallidum surface protein was isolated from an EMBL-4 bacteriophage lambda library of T. pallidum DNA. The recombinant phage was identified using an mAb that was directed toward an immunodominant, outer envelope T. pallidum protein designated P6. The recombinant P6 protein possessed the same mol mass as the native treponemal antigen ...

in this paper, we introduce new classes $sum_{k,p,n}(alpha ,m,lambda ,l,rho )$ and $mathcal{t}_{k,p,n}(alpha ,m,lambda ,l,rho )$ of p-valent meromorphic functions defined by using the extended multiplier transformation operator. we use a strong convolution technique and derive inclusion results. a radius problem and some other interesting properties of these classes are discussed.

In this paper, we study the decomposition of semirings with a semilattice additive reduct. For, we introduce the notion of principal left $k$-radicals $Lambda(a)={x in S | a stackrel{l}{longrightarrow^{infty}} x}$ induced by the transitive closure $stackrel{l}{longrightarrow^{infty}}$ of the relation $stackrel{l}{longrightarrow}$ which induce the equivalence relation $lambda$. Again non-transit...

for any lacunary sequence $theta = (k_{r})$, we define the concepts of $s_{theta}-$limit point and $s_{theta}-$cluster point of a sequence of fuzzy numbers $x = (x_{k})$. we introduce the new sets  $lambda^{f}_{s_{theta}}(x)$, $gamma^{f}_{s_{theta}}(x)$ and prove some inclusion relaions between these and the sets $lambda^{f}_{s}(x)$, $gamma^{f}_{s}(x)$ introduced in ~cite{ayt:slpsfn} by aytar [...

A rare case of coexisting multiple myeloma and non-Hodgkin's lymphoma at the time of diagnosis is presented. The patient presented with petechiae, melena and weight loss. IgA lambda monoclonal gammopathy in the serum and free lambda chain in urine were documented. Bone marrow biopsy demonstrated an interstitial infiltration of neoplastic plasma cells coexisting with localized collection of neop...

Bacteriophage lambda site-specific recombination comprises two overall reactions, integration into and excision from the host chromosome. Lambda integrase (Int) carries out both reactions. During excision, excisionase (Xis) helps Int to bind DNA and introduces a bend in the DNA that facilitates formation of the proper excisive nucleoprotein complex. The carboxyl-terminal alpha-helix of Xis is t...

the coexistence of waldenstromâ´s macrglobulinemia and cryptogenic cirrhosis has been rarely reported.we describe a 72-year-old man with compensated cryptogenic cirrhosis whose major clinical presentation was hyperviscosity syndrome. serum protein electrophoresis revealed the presence of an igm-kappa spike. lambda light chain was found in urine. bone marrow biopsy was performed, which showed at...

The bacteriophage lambda repressor, a protein that maintains the lysogenic state of a bacterium containing a lambda prophage, is cleaved when the lysogen is induced by mitomycin C or ultraviolet light. This cleavage does not occur when induction is prevented by mutational alteration either of the phage repressor or of the host recA gene product. Proteolytic cleavage may be the primary mechanism...

A human anti-(rhesus D) antibody (IgG1 lambda) Fab fragment was cloned from an Epstein-Barr-virus-transformed cell line and expressed in Escherichia coli with the use of bacteriophage lambda vectors. The cloned protein is active in binding to human erythrocytes and permits the development of a recombinant reagent for the prevention of haemolytic disease of the newborn. The method offers a rapid...
