Rats given high doses of colchicine (300-400 ug, i.c.v.) were used to investigate the comparative distribution of Leu-enkephalin and bovine adrenal medullary enkephalinprecursor fragment (BAM-22P) in the brain. Leu-enkephalin immunoreactive neurons have a widespread distribution throughout the neuraxis. In most areas adjacent section analysis showed BAM-22P and Leu-enkephalin immunoreactive per...

MOTIVATION The reference CRAM file format implementation is in Java. We present 'Scramble': a new C implementation of SAM, BAM and CRAM file I/O. RESULTS The C implementation of for CRAM is 1.5-1.7× slower than BAM at decoding but 1.8-2.6× faster at encoding. We see file size savings of 34-55%. AVAILABILITY AND IMPLEMENTATION Source code is available at http://sourceforge.net/projects/stade...

⎯By employing the Lyapunov stability theory and linear matrix inequality (LMI) technique, delaydependent stability criterion is derived to ensure the exponential stability of bi-directional associative memory (BAM) neural networks with time-varying delays. The proposed condition can be checked easily by LMI control toolbox in Matlab. A numerical example is given to demonstrate the effectiveness...

Outer membrane proteins (OMPs) play a central role in the integrity of the outer membrane of Gram-negative bacteria. Unfolded OMPs (uOMPs) transit across the periplasm, and subsequent folding and assembly are crucial for biogenesis. Chaperones and the essential β-barrel assembly machinery (BAM) complex facilitate these processes. In vitro studies suggest that some chaperones sequester uOMPs in ...

In the Drosophila ovary, germline stem cells (GSCs) are maintained primarily by bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) ligands produced by the stromal cells of the niche. This signaling represses GSC differentiation by blocking the transcription of the differentiation factor Bam. Remarkably, bam transcription begins only one cell diameter away from the GSC in the daughter cystoblasts (CBs). How this ...

In this article, issues of both stability and dissipativity for a type bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural systems with time delays are investigated. By using generalized Halanay inequalities constructing appropriate Lyapunov functionals, some novelty criteria obtained the asymptotic BAM delays. Also, without assuming boundedness differentiability activation functions, new sufficient ...

Arecibo high-resolution (1.5 to 2 km) radar data of Venus for the area extending from Beta Regio to western Eisila Regio provide strong evidence that the mountains in Beta and Eisila Regiones and plains in and adjacent to Guinevere Planitia are of volcanic origin. Recognized styles of volcanism include large volcanic edifices on the Beta and Eisila rises related to regional structural trends, p...

Bam-readcount is a utility for generating low-level information about sequencing data at specific nucleotide positions. Originally designed to help filter genomic mutation calls, the metrics it outputs are useful as input variant detection tools and resolving ambiguity between callers . In addition, has found broad applicability in diverse fields including tumor evolution, single-cell genomics,...

This paper addresses the problem of passivity analysis issue for a class of fuzzy bidirectional associative memory (BAM) neural networks with Markovian jumping parameters and time varying delays. A set of sufficient conditions for the passiveness of the considered fuzzy BAM neural network model is derived in terms of linear matrix inequalities by using the delay fractioning technique together w...
