The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Rad52 protein is essential for efficient homologous recombination (HR). An important role of Rad52 in HR is the loading of Rad51 onto replication protein A-coated single-stranded DNA (ssDNA), which is referred to as the recombination mediator activity. In vitro, Rad52 displays additional activities, including self-association, DNA binding and ssDNA annealing. Althou...

African swine fever virus (ASFV) causes a lethal haemorrhagic disease of swine which can be transmitted through direct contact with infected animals and their excretions or indirect contact with contaminated fomites. The shedding of ASFV by infected pigs and the stability of ASFV in the environment will determine the extent of environmental contamination. The recent outbreaks of ASF in Europe m...

C-reactive protein and four other acute phase reactant proteins of non-cardiac, origin (orosomucoid, alpha 1- antitrypsin, heptoglobin, and alpha 2- macroglobulin) were studied serially by laser immunonephelometric assay in sera from 17 patients with myocardial infarction. A similar comparison was made in 57 patients undergoing surgery and 72 patients with acute infection. C-reactive protein wa...

We discuss the notion of matrix model, π : C(X) → MK(C(T )), for algebraic submanifolds of the free complex sphere, X ⊂ SN−1 C,+ . When K ∈ N is fixed there is a universal such model, which factorizes as π : C(X)→ C(X) ⊂MK(C(T )). We have X = Xclass and, under a mild assumption, inclusions X (1) ⊂ X ⊂ X ⊂ . . . ⊂ X. Our main results concern X, X, X, . . ., their relation with various half-class...

the main objective of this study was to purify and characterize an esterase from shewanella sp f88. the enzyme was purified 41-fold and an overall yield of 21 %, using a two-step procedure, including ammonium sulfate precipitation and q-sepharore chromatography. molecular weight of the enzyme was 62.3 kda according to sds-page data. the enzyme showed an optimum activity at ph 6.5 and 58 ˚c. evo...
