Acinetobacter baumannii isolate A1 was recovered in the United Kingdom in 1982 and belongs to global clone 1 (GC1). Here, we present its complete 3.91-Mbp genome sequence, generated via a combination of short-read sequencing (Illumina), long-read sequencing (PacBio), and manual finishing.

Codon usage bias (CUB) was a unique feature of the genome, and revealing chloroplast genome codon can provide useful information for evolution plant species. Lonicera × heckrottii ‘Gold Flame’ is one members genus with important ornamental value. However, this genotype has not been investigated. In study, base compositions various indices 51 coding sequences from calculated, by W, DnaSP, CUSP E...

The aim was to investigate the kinematic factors associated with successful performance in initial acceleration phase of a sprint best male athletes World at 2018 Indoor Athletics Championships. High speed video (150 Hz) captured for eight sprinters men’s 60 m final. Spatio-temporal and joint variables were calculated from set position end first ground contact post-block exit (GC1). Normalised ...

Citation: Sharma RK, Baehr W, Makino CL and Duda T (2015) Ca 2+ and Ca 2+-interlocked membrane guanylate cyclase signal modulation of neuronal and cardiovascular signal transduction. The papers in this research topic are focused on the extraordinary tale of cyclic GMP: its recognition as a hormonal second messenger and its subsequent interplay with intracellular calcium where the two together b...

Aims. We present the first results of a large spectroscopic survey of candidate globular clusters located in the extreme outskirts of the nearby M31 galaxy. The survey is aimed at ascertaining the nature of the selected candidates to increase the sample of confirmed M31 clusters lying more that 2 • away from the center of the galaxy. Methods. We obtained low resolution spectra (λ/∆λ ≃ 800 − 130...

The disease processes underlying inherited retinal disease are complex and are not completely understood. Many of the corrective gene therapies designed to treat diseases linked to mutations in genes specifically expressed in photoreceptor cells restore function to these cells but fail to stop progression of the disease. There is growing consensus that effective treatments for these diseases wi...

background:gossypol is a yellow toxic pigment from the cottonseed that can cause acute or chronic toxicity in humans and animals by affecting the testicular tissues. nowadays cottonseed is used as food supplement for ruminants specially the sheep. in this study, two different stem cell lines of testicular tissue including gc1-spg (mouse testis) and sftf-pi43 (sheep testis) cells were used to ev...

Sir, Resistance to third-generation cephalosporins such as ceftazidime and cefotaxime in Acinetobacter baumannii is often due to increased expression of an intrinsic ampC gene. Expression increases when the ISAba1 insertion sequence (IS) is present in the appropriate orientation upstream of the ampC gene, providing an outward-facing promoter that appears to be stronger than the intrinsic promot...

Calmodulin-like neuronal Ca2+-binding proteins (NCBPs) are expressed primarily in neurons and contain a combination of four functional and nonfunctional EF-hand Ca2+-binding motifs. The guanylate cyclase-activating proteins 1-3 (GCAP1-3), the best characterized subgroup of NCBPs, function in the regulation of transmembrane guanylate cyclases 1-2 (GC1-2). The pairing of GCAPs and GCs in vivo dep...
