The processes for repairing DNA daughter-strand gaps were studied in UV-irradiated uvrB, uvrB recB, uvrB recF, and uvrB recB recF cells of Escherichia coli K-12. The dimer-containing parental DNA was found to be joined to daughter strands during postreplication repair in all four strains examined. Therefore, both the major (recF-dependent) and the minor (recF recB-independent) gap-filling proce...

Five patients with hepatic (3), pelvic (1) or spinal (1) hydatid cysts received 10 mg/kg/d albendazole for 1-3 months prior to surgery. Daughter cysts were present in the spinal hydatid and in one patient with hepatic disease. Electron microscope examination of the cyst tissue of the pelvic and the 2 hepatic cysts lacking daughter cysts showed no evidence of germinal layer, and the protoscolece...

In the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, organelles and macromolecular complexes are delivered from the mother to the emerging daughter during cell division, thereby ensuring progeny viability. Here, we have shown that during mitosis nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) in the mother nucleus are actively delivered through the bud neck and into the daughter cell concomitantly with the nuclear envelope. F...

Objective: To estimate the correlation and variant heritability values of craniofacial variables between parents their offspring. Materials Methods: The sample comprised 20 Indian families; each family consisted father, mother, son, daughter. Lateral cephalometric radiographs facial photographs were taken for member.Fifty -three angular, linear, proportional measured photographic analysis was d...

Cell divisions producing two daughter cells that adopt distinct fates are defined as asymmetric. In all organisms, ranging from bacteria to mammals, in which development has been studied extensively, asymmetric cell divisions generate cell diversity. Asymmetric cell divisions can be achieved by either intrinsic or extrinsic mechanisms (Fig. 1). Intrinsic mechanisms involve the preferential segr...

Abstract In Ogihara’s edition of the Tocharian B so-called “Avadāna-Manuscript”, a fragment from Dhanika-Avadāna contains word santse. On basis parallel texts, it is shown that santse means ‘daughter-in-law’. This newly identified cognate with a.o. Greek νυός ‘daughter-in-law’ and derives Proto-Indo- European *snusó-.
