BACKGROUND Birdshot chorioretinitis (BSCR) is a rare ocular inflammatory disorder associated with HLA-A29 and characterized by bilateral choroidal lesions, vitritis, macular edema, and retinal vasculitis. Ocular inflammation associated with HLA-B27 is typically a recurrent, unilateral, acute anterior uveitis (AAU) that is frequently associated with ankylosing spondylitis (AS). To date, there ar...

Birdshot chorioretinopathy (BSCR) is a relatively rare form of uveitis, which is strongly correlated with the histocompatibility leukocyte antigen (HLA)-A29 class I type. Nevertheless, HLA typing is not diagnostic. The purpose of the present study was to retrospectively evaluate the ocular manifestations associated with the presence of HLA-A29 other than typical BSCR. Charts of consecutive pati...

The Commission of the European Communities (CEC) is just working out a new directive in order to regulate the agricultural reuse of sewage sludge. This new regulation will also effect a “special case” – sludge usage in a mountainous environment – which will be discussed in this paper. Three reuse sites at small wastewater treatment plants of mountain refuges at altitudes more than 2,000 m a.s.l...

Haloterrigena jeotgali is a halophilic archaeon within the family Natrialbaceae that was isolated from shrimp jeotgal, a traditional Korean salt-fermented food. A29(T) is the type strain of H. jeotgali, and is a Gram-negative staining, non-motile, rod-shaped archaeon that grows in 10 %-30 % (w/v) NaCl. We present the annotated H. jeotgali A29(T) genome sequence along with a summary of its featu...

purpose: to report a typical case of hla-a29 positive birdshot choroidipathy as the first report in iran. case report: a 43-year-old male subject without any systemic disease presented complainting of decreased visual acuity in both eyes for 5 years. visual acuity was 20/30 in his right eye and cf at 2 meters in the left eye. intraocular pressure was within normal limits bilaterally. corneas an...

Four marine bacteria, Alteromonas sp. strains A27, A28, A29, and A30, that lyse the diatom Skeletonema costatum NIES-324 were isolated from coastal seawater samples. They were also able to lyse the diatoms Thalassiosira sp. and Eucampia zodiacs and the raphidophycean flagellate Chattonella antiqua. Cryptic indigenous plasmids, designated pAS28 and pAS29, were detected in Alteromonas sp. strains...

Among the vast number of signs that were used in ancient Egyptian language was corpus upside-down signs. This paper focuses on two models it, namely A29 and P(1) Gardiner’s Sign List.

We have investigated the role of a single-stranded RNA junction, J1/2, that connects the substrate-containing P1 duplex to the remainder of the Tetrahymena group I ribozyme. Single-turnover kinetics, fluorescence anisotropy, and single-molecule fluorescence resonance energy transfer studies of a series of J1/2 mutants were used to probe the sequence dependence of the catalytic activity, the P...
