in order to survey the evolutionary history and impact of historical events on the genetic structure of iranian people, the hv2 region of 141 mtdna sequences related to six iranian populations were analyzed. slight and non-significant fst distances among the central-western persian speaking populations of iran testify to the common origin of these populations from one proto-population. mismatch...

A series of simulation studies (Ono & Ikegami 1999; 2001) show that a proto cell spontaneously emerges from a chemical soup by acquiring membrane structures. In 2-dimensional space, the emergence of proto cells is followed by the reproduction of cells. A major unsolved problem is the evolution of proto cells; how the proto cells evolve into modern cells with higher functionalities. Here we exam...

medullary thyroid carcinoma (mtc) occurs in both sporadic (75%) and hereditary (25%) forms. the missense mutations of the rearranged during transfection (ret) proto-oncogene in mtc development have been well demonstrated. the aim of this study was to investigate frequency of g691s/s904s haplotype in mtc patients and their relatives.in this research 293 participants were studied, including 181 p...

The semantic function tags of Bonial, Stowe, and Palmer (2013) and the ordinal, multi-property annotations of Reisinger et al. (2015) draw inspiration from Dowty’s semantic proto-role theory. We approach proto-role labeling as a multi-label classification problem and establish strong results for the task by adapting a successful model of traditional semantic role labeling. We achieve a proto-ro...
