Heterotrimeric G-proteins mediate a variety of cellular functions, including signal transduction in sensory neurons of the olfactory system. Whereas the Gα subunits in these neurons are well characterized, the gene transcript expression profile of Gβγ subunits is largely missing. Here we report our comprehensive expression analysis to identify Gβ and Gγ subunit gene transcripts in the mouse mai...

it is necessary to determine the amount of chilling requirement of present cultivars and also to produce new low chill cultivars through breeding programs because of the global warming phenomenon and tendency to grow temperate fruit in warm climate. in this study, the amount of chilling requirement in ‘askari’, ‘rotaby’, ‘yaghuty’, ‘rish baba’ and ‘monaga΄ were evaluated. uniform cuttings of me...

background: the association of epstein-barr virus (ebv) with burkitt’s lymphoma (bl) is variable in different geographic regions. in developing countries, the association of ebv with bl is regarded to be of an endemic-type in equatorial africa ( > 95%) and sporadic-type in the developed countries (15-30%). the purpose of this study is to assess the frequency of ebv infection in bl, in iran. the...

This paper summarizes the author's paper (presented in KR-94 and titled \Directional Resolution: The Davis-Putnam Procedure, Revisited" [Dechter and Rish, 1994]), focusing on its empirical aspects. It compares a resolution based variant of the Davis-Putnam algorithm with a backtracking variant and highlights their sensitivity (or insensitivity) to the problems' structure. Experiments show that ...

a study of the combining ability and gene effects, that can obtained through diallel cross analysis provides considerable information to breeders for a design of breeding programs. inheritance and genetic control of yield and its components were studied in a full diallel cross for seven iranian cantaloupe cultivars namely: rish-baba, shah-abadi, samsouri, dastjerdi, magasi-neyshabour, till-toro...

BACKGROUND To determine at what stage during gastric carcinogenesis Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) enters the gastric epithelial cells, the presence of EBV was investigated in two pathogenetically related but distinct forms of adenocarcinoma of the stomach-gastric carcinoma of the intact stomach (GCIS) and gastric stump carcinoma (GSC)-and their presumed precursor lesions. PATIENTS AND METHODS Elev...

A series of 520 cases of non-Hodgkin‘s lymphoma (NHL; 374 of B-cell, 130 of T-cell, 5 of non-Blnon-T-cell, and 11 of undetermined phenotype) was analyzed for the presence of Epstein-Barr virus (EBV) using RNA in situ hybridization (RISH). The aims of the study were to assess the frequency of EBV-encoded small nuclear RNAs 1 and 2 (EBER), abundant immediate early RNAs (BHLF), and latent membrane...
