BACKGROUND In hypertrophic cardiomyopathy, a spectrum of mitral leaflet abnormalities has been related to the mechanism of mitral systolic anterior motion (SAM), which causes both subaortic obstruction and mitral regurgitation. In the individual patient, SAM and regurgitation vary in parallel; clinically, however, great interindividual differences in mitral regurgitation can occur for comparabl...

This paper describes an experimentally simple method for assembling junctions with nanometer-scale, structured organic films positioned between two metal electrodes. These junctions comprise two metal electrodes that sandwich two self-assembled monolayers (SAMs) – that is, metal (mercury)–SAM//SAM–metal (mercury, gold or silver) junctions. The junctions are easy to assemble (because the mercury...

The maize (Zea mays subsp. mays L.) shoot apical meristem (SAM) is a self-replenishing pool of stem cells that produces all above-ground plant tissues. Improvements in image acquisition and processing techniques have allowed high-throughput, quantitative genetic analyses of SAM morphology. As with other large-scale phenotyping efforts, meaningful descriptions of genetic architecture depend on t...

S-Adenosyl-L-methionine synthetase (SAM-s) catalyzes the biosynthesis of SAM from ATP and L-methionine. Despite extensive research with many organisms, its role in Streptomyces sp. remains unclear. In the present study, the putative SAM-s gene was isolated from a spectinomycin producer, Streptomyces spectabilis. The purified protein from the transformed Escherichia coli with the isolated gene s...

We have assembled two junctions that incorporate redox sites between Hg electrodes by different interactions. In the first junction, Hg-SAM-R//R-SAM-Hg, the redox site (R) are covalently linked to each electrode in self assembled monolayers (SAM-R). In the second junction, Hg-SAM//R//SAM-Hg, the redox sites dissolved in solution are trapped by electrostatic interaction at the SAM formed at the ...

The S(MK) box is a conserved riboswitch motif found in the 5' untranslated region of metK genes [encoding S-adenosylmethionine (SAM) synthetase] in lactic acid bacteria, including Enterococcus, Streptococcus, and Lactococcus sp. Previous studies showed that this RNA element binds SAM in vitro, and SAM binding causes a structural rearrangement that sequesters the Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence by ...
