In this work we study static neutron stars in the context of several inflationary models which are popular cosmology. These nonminimally coupled scalar theories yield a viable phenomenology both Jordan and Einstein frames. By considering constraints from theories, basically determine values potential strength, usually considered as free parameter astrophysical star works, construct solve Tolman...

The class III sugar transport facilitator GLUT8 co-localizes with the lysosomal protein LAMP1 in heterologous expression systems. GLUT8 carries a [D/E]XXXL[L/I]-type dileucine sorting signal that has been postulated to retain the protein in an endosomal/lysosomal compartment via interactions with clathrin adaptor protein (AP) complexes. However, contradictory findings have been described regard...

We deal with the competitive analysis of algorithms for managing data in a distributed environment. We deal with the le allocation problem ((DF], ML]), where copies of a le may be be stored in the local storage of some subset of processors, copies may be replicated and discarded over time so as to optimize communication costs, but multiple copies must be kept consistent and at least one copy mu...

Glutamate is the principal neurotransmitter at the primary sensory afferent synapse in the medulla for the taste system. At this synapse, glutamate activates NMDA and nonNMDA (AMPA and Kainate) ionotropic receptors to effect a response in the secondorder neurons. The current experiment is the first to examine the role of metabotropic glutamate receptors (mGluR) in the transmission of taste info...

Transcription factors (TFs) do not function alone but work together with other TFs (called co-TFs) in a combinatorial fashion to precisely control the transcription of target genes. Mining co-TFs is thus important to understand the mechanism of transcriptional regulation. Although existing methods can identify co-TFs, their accuracy depends heavily on the chosen background model and other param...

Adaptor proteins (AP) play important roles in the sorting of proteins from the trans-Golgi network, but how they function in the sorting of various melanosome-specific proteins such as Pmel17, an essential structural component of melanosomes, in melanocytes is unknown. We characterized the processing and trafficking of Pmel17 via adaptor protein complexes within melanocytic cells. Proteomics an...

Background: The aim of this study was to explore the potential genes and transcription factors involved in postoperative cognitive dysfunction (POCD) via bioinformatics analysis. Material/Methods: GSE95070 miRNA expression profiles were downloaded from Gene Expression Omnibus database, which included five hippocampal tissues from POCD mice and controls. Moreover, the differentially expressed mi...

This paper presents an automated approach for deriving gridded a pri1 ori parameters for the National Weather Service (NWS) Sacramento Soil 2 Moisture Accounting (SAC-SMA) model from the Soil Survey Geographic 3 (SSURGO) Database and National Land Cover Database (NLCD). Our ap4 proach considerably extends methods previously used in the NWS and of5 fers automated and geographically invariant way...

Glutamate is the principal neurotransmitter at the primary sensory afferent synapse in the medulla for the taste system. At this synapse, glutamate activates N-methyl-D-aspartate (NMDA) and non-NMDA (alpha-amino-3-hydroxy-5-methyl-4-isoxazolepropionic acid [AMPA] and kainate) ionotropic receptors to effect a response in the second-order neurons. The current experiment is the first to examine th...
