We study one dimensional intersections of M5 branes with M5 and M2 branes. On the worldvolume of the M5-brane, such an intersection appears as a string soliton. We study this worldvolume theory in two different regimes: 1) Where the worldvolume theory is formulated in flat space and 2) where the worldvolume theory is studied in the supergravity background produced by a stack of M5 (or M2) brane...

The maturation of 5S ribosomal RNA in low G+C Gram-positive bacteria is catalyzed by a highly conserved, approximately 190 residue, enzyme, called ribonuclease M5 (RNase M5). Sequence alignment had predicted that the N-terminal half of RNase M5 would consist of a Toprim domain, a protein fold found in type IA and type II topoisomerases, DnaG-like primases, OLD family nucleases and RecR proteins...

Rabbit antisera evoked by type 5 streptococcal M protein (M5) were screened by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) for immunological cross-reactivity with purified rabbit muscle phosphorylases a and b. Of 10 pep M5 antisera tested, 3 showed significant cross-reactivity with both forms of the enzyme. ELISA inhibition studies using one of the pep M5 antisera showed that all of the phosphory...

The immunochemical properties of type 5 M protein antigens that were expressed in Escherichia coli K-12 by recombinant lambda bacteriophages isolated from a gene bank of serotype 5 Streptococcus pyogenes have been analyzed in detail. M proteins from partially purified bacteriophage lysates displayed precipitin lines of identity with a purified peptic extract of type 5 M protein (pep M5) in immu...

In Bacillus subtilis, maturation of 5S rRNA is catalyzed by an enzyme called RNase M5. We searched for potential mRNA substrates for RNase M5 by gene array technology, based on the premise that most endonucleolytic cleavages have an effect on the stability of RNA and hence on steady-state levels of expression. Only a handful of genes had significantly altered expression in rnmV mutants compared...

M5 is a method developed by Quinlan [10] for inducing trees of linear regression models (model trees). The paper addresses the flexibility and optimality in M5 model tree by proposing two new algorithms, namely M5flex and M5opt. M5flex algorithm brings in domain knowledge by enabling the user to choose split attributes and split values for important nodes in a model tree so that the resulting m...

BACKGROUND Evidence-Based Medicine (EBM) is an important competency for the healthcare professional. Experimental evidence of EBM educational interventions from rigorous research studies is limited. The main objective of this study was to assess EBM learning (knowledge, attitudes and self-reported skills) in undergraduate medical students with a randomized controlled trial. METHODS The educat...
