In many applied programs in real-life problems, both physical inputs and outputsare heterogeneous which in this case the ecient cost and income modelcan not apply to evaluate the cost and income of related turnover. So, a measurementbased on the directional value of prot was presented which we havedeveloped it in this paper and have computed it for interval data. In fact, wehave measured the in...

BACKGROUND Focal Dermal Hypoplasia (FDH) is a genetic disorder characterized by developmental defects in skin, skeleton and ectodermal appendages. FDH is caused by dominant loss-of-function mutations in X-linked PORCN. PORCN orthologues in Drosophila and mice encode endoplasmic reticulum proteins required for secretion and function of Wnt proteins. Wnt proteins play important roles in embryo de...

Familial dysalbuminemic hyperthyroxinemia (FDH) is an inherited disease characterized by increased circulating total thyroxine (T4) levels and normal physiological thyroid function. Heterozygous albumin gene (ALB) variants have been reported to be the underlying cause of FDH. To our knowledge, there have been no confirmed FDH cases in Korea. We recently observed a female patient with mild T4 el...

A folate enzyme, FDH (10-formyltetrahydrofolate dehydrogenase; EC 1.5.1.6), is not a typical tumour suppressor, but it has two basic characteristics of one, i.e. it is down-regulated in tumours and its expression is selectively cytotoxic to cancer cells. We have recently shown that ectopic expression of FDH in A549 lung cancer cells induces G1 arrest and apoptosis that was accompanied by elevat...

To overcome the challenging food safety and security problem, in 2003, Thai government initiated ‘Good Agricultural Practices’ (GAP) technology. This paper used a sample of 107 small chili farms from Chiyaphoom province for 2012 crop year, data envelopment analysis (DEA) meta-frontier directional distance function technique to answer two questions: (1) Are GAP-adopting farms, on average, more e...

Escherichia coli synthesizes three selenocysteine-dependent formate dehydrogenases (Fdh) that also have a molybdenum cofactor. Fdh-H couples formate oxidation with proton reduction in the formate hydrogenlyase (FHL) complex. The activity of Fdh-H in solution can be measured with artificial redox dyes but, unlike Fdh-O and Fdh-N, it has never been observed by chromogenic activity staining after ...

Lactobacillus brevis alcohol dehydrogenase (Lb-ADH) catalyzes reduction of prochiral carbonyl compounds to chiral alcohol and meanwhile consumes its cofactor NADH into NAD(+), while the cofactor regeneration can be catalyzed by Candida boidinii formate dehydrogenase (Cb-FDH). This work presents three different Escherichia coli whole-cell biocatalyst systems expressing recombinant ADH/FDH, FDH-L...

The Drosophila porcupine gene is required for secretion of wingless and other Wnt proteins, and sporadic mutations in its unique human ortholog, PORCN, cause a pleiotropic X-linked dominant disorder, focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH, also known as Goltz syndrome). We generated a conditional allele of the X-linked mouse Porcn gene and analyzed its requirement in Wnt signaling and embryonic developme...

The hash-and-sign RSA signature is one of the most elegant and well known signatures schemes, extensively used in a wide variety of cryptographic applications. Unfortunately, the only existing analysis of this popular signature scheme is in the random oracle model, where the resulting idealized signature is known as the RSA Full Domain Hash signature scheme (RSA-FDH). In fact, prior work has sh...
