We have identified two individuals from Glasgow in Scotland who have a deletion of one of two copies of the intergenic 9-bp sequence motif CCCCCTCTA, located between the cytochrome oxidase II (COII) and lysine tRNA (tRNA(Lys)) genes of the human mitochondrial genome. Although this polymorphism is common in Africa and Asia, it has not been reported in Northern Europe. Analysis of the mitochondri...

We report on the synthesis and crystal structure of solvent-free coordination polymer CoII(2,5-DMT) (1) with 2,5-DMT ≡ 2,5-dimethoxyterephthalate which is isostructural to already reported MnII ZnII congeners (C2/c, Z = 4). In contrast, for M MgII, a MOF DMF-filled pores obtained, namely Mg2(2,5-DMT)2(DMF)2 (2) (P1¯, 2). Attempts remove these solvent molecules record gas sorption isotherm did n...

Cobalt (CoII) ions have been an attractive candidate for the biomedical modification of orthopedic implants decades. However, limited research has performed into how immobilized CoII affect physical properties implant devices and these changes regulate cellular behavior. In this study we modified biocompatible poly(vinyl alcohol) with terpyridine catechol groups (PVA-TP-CA) to create a stable s...

Abstract. Dharmayanthi AB, Subagyo VNO, Nugraha RTP, Rahmini, Rahmadi C, Darmawan, Sutrisno H. 2022. Genetic characteristics and strain types of the invasive fall armyworm Spodoptera frugiperda (J. E. Smith) (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae) in Indonesia. Biodiversitas 23: 3928-3935. The armyworm, is an pest tropical region western hemisphere, which globally distributed, including Therefore, this study ...

The performances of alumina-supported cobalt catalysts strongly depend on Co/alumina interactions, that are poorly understood. In the present work, ?-alumina surfaces used as models polycrystalline support, to unravel their orientation dependent behavior by GI-EXAFS. CoII/?-alumina interactions in dried state investigated, with a resolution parallel versus perpendicular deposit formation. DFT c...

Population genetic variation and demographic history in Danaus plexippus (L.), from Mexico were assessed based on analyses of mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI; 658 bp) and subunit II (COII; 503 bp) gene segments and 7 microsatellite loci. The sample of 133 individuals included both migratory monarchs, mainly from 4 overwintering sites within the Monarch Butterfly Biosphere Rese...

The title compound, [CaCo2(C22H30N4O6)2](ClO4)2·1.36H2O or {Ca[Co(H-2L1)]2}·2ClO4·1.36H2O {where L1 is 4,10-bis-[(3-hy-droxy-4-pyron-2-yl)meth-yl]-1,7-dimethyl-1,4,7,10-tetra-aza-cyclo-dodecane}, is a trinuclear complex whose asymmetric unit comprises a quarter of the {Ca[Co(H-2L1)]2}2+ trinuclear complex, half of a perchlorate ion and 0.34-water mol-ecules. In the neutral [Co(H-2L1)] moiety, t...
