Using the multiconfiguration Dirac-Hartree-Fock and relativistic configuration interaction methods, a consistent set of transition energies radiative data for main states $2s^2 2p^4$, $2s 2p^5$, $2p^6$, 2p^3 3s$, 3p$, 3d$, 2p^4 3d$ configurations in O-like Ions between Ar XI ($Z = 18$) Cr XVII 24$) is provided. Our compared with NIST compiled values previous calculations. The are accurate enoug...

The intermolecular forces between water molecules are of great importance in many areas of chemistry including solvation, solution chemistry, and biochemistry. As a result of this (H2O)n systems have received a great significant of attention, both experimental and theoretical. All calculation of this study are carried out by Gaussian 98 soft ware. Geometry optimization for each cluster were be ...

A cDNA encoding a potassium channel of the two-pore domain family (K(2P), KCNK) of leak channels was cloned from the marine sponge Amphimedon queenslandica. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that AquK(2P) cannot be placed into any of the established functional groups of mammalian K(2P) channels. We used the Xenopus oocyte expression system, a two-electrode voltage clamp and inside-out patch clamp...

AIMS Endomyocardial fibrosis (EMF) is a restrictive cardiomyopathy manifested mainly by diastolic heart failure. It is recognized that diastole is an important determinant of exercise capacity. The purpose of this study was to determine whether resting echocardiographic parameters might predict oxygen consumption (VO(2p)) by ergoespirometry and the prognostic role of functional capacity in EMF ...

Ssa1/2p, members of one of the yeast cytosolic hsp70 subfamilies, have been implicated in the translocation of secretory proteins into the lumen of the ER. The involvement of these hsp70s in translocation was tested directly by examining the effect of immunodepleting Ssa1/2p from yeast cytosol and subsequently testing the cytosol for its ability to support co- and post-translational translocati...

Members of the K(2P) potassium channel family regulate neuronal excitability and are implicated in pain, anaesthetic responses, thermosensation, neuroprotection, and mood. Unlike other potassium channels, K(2P)s are gated by remarkably diverse stimuli that include chemical, thermal, and mechanical modalities. It has remained unclear whether the various gating inputs act through separate or comm...

The purpose of this study was to test the concurrent validity of the ICBE compared to the Monark(®) cycle ergometer by indirect dynamic calibration. 42 men were randomly submitted to 2 maximal stress tests with increments of 50 W at 2-min intervals. One test was performed on the Monark(®) bicycle (834/E) and the other on the ICBE. Cardiovascular, perceived exertion and hemodynamic responses wer...
