DiGeorge syndrome is associated with microdeletion of chromosome 22q11.2. Most cases occur sporadically although vertical transmission has been documented. We report a rare case of DiGeorge syndrome in an 8-year-old girl. Blood sample of the patient was cultured and harvested following standard procedure. All of the 20 cells analysed showed a karyotype of 45, XX, -22, t (9;22) (p23; q11.2). Cyt...

Ten commercial sugarcane varieties, N12, N14, N19, N24, N25, N26, N27, 75E247, 84E1334 and NCo376 were tested for suitability for transformation in terms of their embryogenic callus production and transient expression levels. Based on an increase in callus mass over time, varieties N12, N19, N27, NCo376 and 84E1334 outperformed other varieties on Murashige and Skoog medium containing 2,4-dichlo...

Increased awareness of the multiple roles RNA molecules has led to realization that, in addition their structural and functional roles, RNAs can be drug targets for small molecular therapy. Amikacin, a member aminoglycoside group antibiotics, binds specific sites bacterial 16S ribosomal (rRNAs) interferes with protein synthesis leading cell death. Here, we used systemic evolution ligands by exp...

Some new nitrogen bridge-head pyrido[1,2-b][1,2,4]triazepines incorporating 6methylchromone moiety have been synthesized from the reaction of 1,6-diamino-4-(6methyl-4-oxo-4H-chromen-3-yl)-2-oxo-1,2-dihydropyridine-3,5-dicarbonitrile (4) with some α,γ-bifunctional electrophiles including 2-cyano-3,3-bis(methylthio)acrylonitrile, 2cyano-3,3-bis(methylthio)prop-2-enamide, 5-chloro-3-methyl-1-pheny...

Under certain circumstances, the collision of magnetic monopoles, topologically locked-in regions of false vacuum, leads to topological inflation and the creation of baby universes. The future evolution of initial data represented by the two incoming monopoles may contain a timelike singularity but this need not be the case. We discuss the global structure of the spacetime associated with monop...
