Considerable interest has developed in devising microbiological methods for estimating the potency of unknown factors in natural materials. Available reports indicate that Lactobacillus kichmunnii 313 and 327 require vitamin B12 (14) and that Leucono stcc citrovorum 8081 requires an unknown factor, apparently not vitamin Bn (5, S), also present in refined liver extracts. In the present study th...

Melanoma is an aggressive cutaneous malignancy. In this study, we demonstrated that the levels of the programmed cell death 4 (PDCD4) protein and mRNA were lower in tumor tissues compared with normal tissues. In order to further investigate the effects of PDCD4 and its fragments in B16 melanoma cells, we established B16 clones with expression of different PDCD4 fragments. Intact PDCD4, PDCD4∆16...

CD1d is an MHC class I-like molecule that presents glycolipid Ags to types I and II NKT cells. The YxxI motif in the cytoplasmic tail of CD1d contributes to its intracellular localization to the endolysosomal compartment and is important for Ag presentation to type I NKT cells. In this study, we identified the (327-329)RRR motif in CD1d and showed that it is critical for the control of CD1d int...

Conventional leather processing involving depilation of animal hide by lime and sulphide treatment generates considerable amounts of chemical waste causing severe environmental pollution. Enzymatic depilation is an environmentally friendly process and has been considered to be a viable alternative to the chemical depilation process. We isolated an extracellular protease from Pseudomonas aerugin...

We report first results from an ongoing program of combining visibilities from the Giant Meterwave Radio Telescope (GMRT ) and the Nancay Radio Heliograph (NRH) to produce composite snapshot images of the sun at meter wavelengths. We describe the data processing, including a specific multi-scale CLEAN algorithm. We present results of a) simulations for two models of the sun at 327 MHz, with dif...

The transfer of acetyl groups from acetyl coenzyme A to the ε amino group of internal lysine residues is catalyzed by Tip60, which is in the MYST family of nuclear histone acetyltransferases (HATs). The tyrosine phosphorylation of Tip60 seems to be a unique modification. We present evidence that Tip60 is modified on tyrosine 327 by Abl kinase. We show that this causes functional changes in HAT ...

The CL-327 vertical take-off and landing unmanned air vehicle has a payload carrying capability of 100 kg and an on-station endurance of 4.75 hours at 100 km (based on 50 kg payload). Although similar to that of the CL-227, the pitch, roll, yaw and height autopilots have been modified and improved to account for the capabilities and dynamics of the CL327. The advanced guidance, navigation and c...
