In developing tissues, cell polarization and proliferation are regulated by morphogens and signaling pathways. Cells throughout the Drosophila wing primordium typically show subcellular localization of the unconventional myosin Dachs on the distal side of cells (nearest the center of the disc). Dachs localization depends on the spatial distribution of bonds between the protocadherins Fat (Ft) a...

Transposon insertional mutagenesis is an effective alternative to T-DNA mutagenesis when transformation through tissue culture is inefficient as is the case for many crop species. When used as activation tags, transposons can be exploited to generate novel gain-of-function phenotypes without transformation and are of particular value in the study of polyploid plants where gene knockouts will no...

This letter takes a new approach to extract a closed-form expression for the bit error rate (BER) of direct-sequence ultra wideband (DS-UWB) system. In the analysis, the main signal is impaired by multi-user interference (MUI) and an external source of interference originated by simultanously transmitting multiband orthogonal frequency division multiplexing (MB-OFDM) systems which are located i...

Energy management carried in a power system by configuration process is difficult activity. So, reconfiguration has been introduced to solve this problem. Numerous optimization topologies have utilized problem so far. However, they exhibit some drawbacks such as convergence, etc. Hence overcome issue, work formulated new hybrid topology Genetic Algorithm Enabled Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO...

Background. Sessile serrated adenomas/polyps (SSA/Ps) and traditional serrated adenomas (TSAs) have not been well characterized in patients with inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). This study assesses the prevalence and anatomic distribution of SSA/Ps, TSAs, and conventional adenomas/dysplasia (Ad/Ds) in IBD patients. Methods. IBD patients with serrated, adenomatous, or hyperplastic lesions betwe...

All-atom molecular dynamics (MD) simulations were performed to study the effects of different tetraalkylammonium (TAA(+)) counterions, including tetramethylammonium (TMA(+)), tetraethylammonium (TEA(+)), tetrapropylammonium (TPA(+)) and tetrabutylammonium (TBA(+)), on dodecyl sulfate (DS(-)) micelles. Structural properties, such as the radius of gyration (Rg), micelle radius (Rs), micelle size,...

average age distribution and generation interval were investigated in four different selection pathways. i.e., sire of future sires (ss), sire of future dams (sd), dam of future sires (ds) and dam of future dams (dd). young bulls pathway (yb) is also considered as a path that affects the generation interval in sd pathway when using progeny testing program. data were collected from animal breedi...

An unbalanced electrical distribution system (DS) with radial construction and passive nature suffers from significant power loss. The unstable load demand poor voltage profile resulted insufficient reactive in the DS. This research implements a unique Rao algorithm without metaphors for optimal allocation of multiple distributed generation (DG) static compensators (DSTATCOM). For appropriate s...
