The retrosplenial cortex (RSC) plays an important role in memory and spatial navigation. It shares functional similarities with the hippocampus, including the presence of place fields and lesion-induced impairments in spatial navigation, and the RSC is an important source of visual-spatial input to the hippocampus. Recently, the RSC has been the target of intense scrutiny among investigators of...

How is chromatin architecture established and what role does it play in transcription? We show that the yeast regulatory locus UASg bears, in addition to binding sites for the activator Gal4, sites bound by the RSC complex. RSC positions a nucleosome, evidently partially unwound, in a structure that facilitates Gal4 binding to its sites. The complex comprises a barrier that imposes characterist...

We cloned a complete cDNA encoding rye seed chitinase-c, designated RSC-c, by rapid amplification of cDNA end and PCR procedures. The cDNA of RSC-c consists of 1,018 nucleotides and includes an open reading frame encoding a polypeptide of 266 amino acid residues. A recombinant RSC-c was produced by expression in Escherichia coli Origami(DE3) and purified. rRSC-c had almost the same chitinase ac...

Genome-wide location analysis indicates that the yeast nucleosome-remodeling complex RSC has approximately 700 physiological targets and that the Rsc1 and Rsc2 isoforms of the complex behave indistinguishably. RSC is associated with numerous tRNA promoters, suggesting that the complex is recruited by the RNA polymerase III transcription machinery. At RNA polymerase II promoters, RSC specificall...

RSC is an essential 15 protein nucleosome-remodeling complex from S. cerevisiae. We have identified two closely related RSC members, Rsc1 and Rsc2. Biochemical analysis revealed Rsc1 and Rsc2 in distinct complexes, defining two forms of RSC. Genetic analysis has shown that Rsc1 and Rsc2 possess shared and unique functions. Rsc1 and Rsc2 each contain two bromodomains, a bromo-adjacent homology (...

The retrosplenial cortex (RSC) comprises Brodmann areas 29/30 and is an integral part of a brain system that is engaged by spatial navigation, scene processing, recollection of the past and imagining the future. Damage involving the RSC in humans can result in significant memory and navigation deficits, while the earliest metabolic decline in Alzheimer's disease is centred upon this region. The...

Repeated static contractions (RSC) induce large fluctuations in tissue oxygen tension and increase the generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS). This study investigated the effect of RSC on muscle contractility, mitochondrial respiratory function, and in vitro sarcoplasmic reticulum (SR) Ca(2+) kinetics in human muscle. Ten male subjects performed five bouts of static knee extension with 10-...

Abstract A comparative study of model predictive control (MPC) schemes and robust $$H_{\infty }$$ H? state feedback (RSC) method for trajectory tracking is proposed in this paper. The main objective paper to compare MPC RSC controllers’ performance predefined under differen...

Three cortical areas (Retro-Splenial Cortex (RSC), Transverse Occipital Sulcus (TOS) and Parahippocampal Place Area (PPA)) respond selectively to scenes. However, their wider role in spatial encoding and their functional connectivity remain unclear. Using fMRI, first we tested the responses of these areas during spatial comparison tasks using dot targets on white noise. Activity increased durin...
