Abstract In this paper, a novel bimodal model to predict complete sunspot cycle based on comprehensive precursor information is proposed. We compare the traditional 13 month moving average with Gaussian filter and find that latter has less missing can better describe overall trend of raw data. Unlike previous models usually only use one precursor, here we combine implicit geometric solar (peak ...

Previous studies have implied that myonuclei accumulation in a muscle is more important than myofibre number in the determination of muscle size in fetal/neonatal lambs. However, due to the lack of a reliable marker, the role of myogenic precursor nuclei (satellite cells) in myofibre hypertrophy in late fetal and postnatal life is not well understood. In this study, MyoD was shown to be a usefu...

Amyloid fibrils can be generated from proteins with diverse sequences and folds. Although amyloid fibrils assembled in vitro commonly involve a single protein precursor, fibrils formed in vivo can contain more than one protein sequence. How fibril structure and stability differ in fibrils composed of single proteins (homopolymeric fibrils) from those generated by co-polymerization of more than ...

The classic biomimetic apatite coating process can be accelerated by first immersing substrates into concentrated simulated body fluid, 5x SBF (SBF1), at 37 degrees C, to form an initial coating of precursor apatite spheres, and subsequently transferring to a second 5x SBF (SBF2) solution which is devoid of crystal growth inhibitors to promote phase transformation of SBF1-derived precursor apat...

Precursor molecules of Escherichia coli wild type and mutant tyrosine tRNA’s contain at both their 5’ and 3’ termini extra nucleotides in addition to those of the mature tRNA molecule. The early steps of processing these precursor molecules must involve specific ribonuclease cleavage. We report the isolation from E. coli extracts of the specific endonucleolytic RNase which cleaves only a single...
