The effect of different rates of boron incorporation during the growth in diamond on the thermoluminescence (TL) features of this material is investigated. TL studies performed between liquid nitrogen temperature (LNT) and 320 K show some phosphorescence and two other peaks at 226 and 266 K. For the first time, boron level in polycrystalline diamond films was identified by TL by an intense glow...

INTRODUCTION Sub-Saharan Africa is predicted to face an unprecedented growth of cancers including breast cancer. There are indications of a significant burden of aggressive and late stage breast disease among premenopausal women in sub-Saharan Africa; because hormonal status tests are not routinely done, many women are given anti-hormonal therapy empirically. There is paucity of data on breast ...

Chorismate mutase (EC 5.4.99.5) from the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae is an allosteric enzyme which can be locked in its active R (relaxed) state by a single threonine-to-isoleucine exchange at position 226. Seven new replacements of residue 226 reveal that this position is able to direct the enzyme's allosteric equilibrium, without interfering with the catalytic constant or the affinity for ...

In the male germline of Drosophila the transformer-2 protein is required for differential splicing of pre-mRNAs from the exuperantia and att genes and autoregulates alternative splicing of its own pre-mRNA. Autoregulation of TRA-2 splicing results in production of two mRNAs that differ by the splicing/retention of the M1 intron and encode functionally distinct protein isoforms. Splicing of the ...
