background hepatitis c virus (hcv) infection is one the major health concern among the infected transplant patients. considering several complications of the disease in them, pre and post-transplantation studies should be performed for monitoring of the infection, as well as, developing new treatment protocols. objectives the current study was conducted to determine the hepatitis c virus rna le...

spinal muscular atrophy (sma) is an autosomal recessive neuromuscular disorder caused by homozygous deletion of the survival motor neuron gene 1 (smn1) in more than 90% of patients. according to the age of onset and severity of the disease, sma is classified into three groups: type i (severe), type ii (intermediate) and type iii (mild). as reported, the smn2 gene, centromeric copy gene, showed ...

Emerging network technologies, such as Asynchronous Transr Mode (ATM), have been the focus of manufacturing efforts imed at producing fully integrated, high-performance solutions [ 1. Chipsets like the IDT77201 NICStAKTM 161, for example, s pport segmentation and reassembly of ATM cells, hardware hecksumming, and DMA protocols that specify sequential cell lacement in predefined, possibly discon...

Quantum copy-protection uses the unclonability of quantum states to construct software that provably cannot be pirated. would immensely useful, but unfortunately, little is known about achieving it in general. In this work, we make progress on goal, by giving following results: We show how copy-protect any program learned from its input-output behavior relative a classical oracle. This con...

Eukaryotic translation initiation factor 6 (eIF6), a monomeric protein of about 26 kDa, can bind to the 60S ribosomal subunit and prevent its association with the 40S ribosomal subunit. In Saccharomyces cerevisiae, eIF6 is encoded by a single-copy essential gene. To understand the function of eIF6 in yeast cells, we constructed a conditional mutant haploid yeast strain in which a functional but...

the combustion of sulfur-rich fossil fuels leads to the release of acid rain-causing sulfurdioxide into the environment. the aim of this study was to enhance the efficiency of biodesulfurizationusing pseudomonas aeruginosa through the duplication of the dsz cluster in this organism. one copy ofthe dsz cluster was inserted by a tri-parental mating method into the chromosome of pseudomonasaerugin...
