Transcription of ptsG encoding glucose-specific permease, enzyme IICB(Glc), in Escherichia coli is initiated from two promoters, P1 and P2. ptsG transcription is repressed by Mlc, a glucose-inducible regulator of carbohydrate metabolism. The regulation of ptsG P1 transcription is also under positive control by cyclic AMP receptor protein and cyclic AMP complex (CRP.cAMP) as observed in other Ml...

Aim: To determine whether dental treatment under general anesthesia (GA) would improve quality of life for children as reported by Saudi Arabian parents using a Parental-Caregivers Perceptions Questionnaire (P-CPQ) and a Family Impact Scale (FIS). Methods: Sixty-six parents completed P-CPQ and FIS scales four to eight weeks after their children (ages three to ten years) underwent comprehensive ...

pBSSB1 is a 27 kb non-bacteriophage-related linear plasmid first found in Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi (S. Typhi), but the mechanism underlying the replication of pBSSB1 is currently unknown. Previous reports showed that the factor for inversion stimulation (Fis) encoded by fis can affect the replication, transcription and other processes through binding DNA. Here, a fis deletion mutant of...

BACKGROUND Recently, noise coming from the neighborhood via floor wall has become a great social problem. The noise between the floors can be a cause of physical and psychological problems, and the different types of floor impact sound (FIS) may have the different effects on the human's body and mind. The purpose of this study is to assess the responses of subjective feeling, task performance a...

Knowledge Management (KM) is one of the hottest topics in both of the industrialized world and information research world. In our daily life, we deal with the most related systems, which were Financial Information Systems (FIS). These systems have closely linked with all aspects of administrative organizations. As a result of this link, the KM has contributed in developing FIS as attempts to ha...

Early prediction of defect prone modules helps in better resource planning, test planning and reducing the cost of defect correction in later stages of software lifecycle. Early prediction models based on design and code metrics are difficult to develop because precise values of the model inputs are not available. Conventional prediction techniques require exact inputs, therefore such models ca...

This work presents an approximation to the modeling and identification tasks using Fuzzy Inference Systems (FIS) applied to the Benchmark Problem: pH neutralization control in industrial processes. The statement of this problem is taken from a paper that postulates the waste water pH neutralization process as a benchmark approach. The proposed model uses the Takagi-Sugeno FIS type, aiming at fu...

The Escherichia coli guaB promoter (P(guaB)) regulates transcription of two genes, guaB and guaA, that are required for the synthesis of guanosine 5'-monophosphate (GMP), a precursor for the synthesis of guanine nucleoside triphosphates. Transcription from P(guaB) increases as a function of increasing cellular growth rate, and this is referred to as growth rate-dependent control (GRDC). Here we...

The data-driven approach is popular to automate learning of fuzzy rules and tuning membership function parameters in inference systems (FIS) development. However, researchers highlight different challenges issues this FIS development because its complexity. This paper evaluates the current state art complexity Computer Science, Software Engineering Information Systems, specifically: 1) What exi...

Abstract This research focuses on the performance of obstacle avoidance feature implemented a wheeled mobile robot by using Sugeno Fuzzy Inference System (FIS). The test was done simulation software Webots and layout first draft out walls, floors, objects in order to set boundary obstacles for simulation. To effectiveness efficiency terms time distance, trajectory Khepera implementing FIS recor...
