AhpF of Salmonella typhimurium, the flavoprotein reductase required for catalytic turnover of AhpC with hydroperoxide substrates in the alkyl hydroperoxide reductase system, is a 57 kDa protein with homology to thioredoxin reductase (TrR) from Escherichia coli. Like TrR, AhpF employs tightly bound FAD and redox-active disulfide center(s) in catalyzing electron transfer from reduced pyridine nuc...

Monomethylation of histone H3 on Lys 4 (H3K4me1) and acetylation of histone H3 on Lys 27 (H3K27ac) are histone modifications that are highly enriched over the body of actively transcribed genes and on enhancers. Although in yeast all H3K4 methylation patterns, including H3K4me1, are implemented by Set1/COMPASS (complex of proteins associated with Set1), there are three classes of COMPASS-like c...

In Mandarin, there is a special acoustic feature—tonal pitch range, which is relative to stress. In this paper, we present a novel concept—tonal range ratio (TRR), which is based on tonal pitch range, and make a study on the correlation between TRR and stress in Mandarin. And we developed a system to automatically detect stresses in words and sentences based on TRR in Mandarin. We obtained high...

Explicit temporal representation and reasoning (TRR) in medical decision-support systems (MDSS) is generally considered to be a useful but often neglected aspect of system design and implementation. Given the great burden of explicit TRR both in knowledge acquisition and computational efficiency, developers of general-purpose large-scale systems typically utilize implicit (i.e., abstracted) for...

The products of the trithorax and Polycomb groups genes maintain the activity and silence, respectively, of many developmental genes including genes of the homeotic complexes. This transcriptional regulation is likely to involve modification of chromatin structure. Here, we report the cloning and characterization of a new gene, trithorax-related (trr), which shares sequence similarities with me...

In order to analyze the effect of OC kappa in redox status, photosynthesis, basal metabolism and growth in Eucalyptus globulus, trees were treated with water (control), with OC kappa at 1 mg mL(-1), or treated with inhibitors of NAD(P)H, ascorbate (ASC), and glutathione (GSH) syntheses and thioredoxin reductase (TRR) activity, CHS-828, lycorine, buthionine sulfoximine (BSO), and auranofin, resp...

This paper considers the problem of routing in a wide area mobile ad-hoc network called Terminode Network. Our routing scheme is a combination of two protocols called Terminode Local Routing (TLR) and Terminode Remote Routing (TRR). TRR is activated when the destination is remote and uses location of the destination obtained either via location management or by location tracking. TLR acts when ...

The anonymity of the Bitcoin system has some shortcomings. Analysis of Transaction Chain (ATC) and Analysis of Bitcoin Protocol and Network (ABPN) are two important methods of deanonymizing bitcoin transactions. Nowadays, there are some anonymization methods to combat ATC but there has been little research into ways to counter ABPN. This paper proposes a new anonymization technology called Tran...

Transportation Research Record: Journal of the Transportation Research Board, No. 1988, Transportation Research Board of the National Academies, Washington, D.C., 2006, pp. 63–66. The analytical procedures for all-way stop-controlled intersections in the 2000 edition of the Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) lack a model to estimate the 95th percentile queue length. This is considered a major shortc...

variable following an identical probability distribution as the arrival process. A new estimation method of the average travel time uses a crosscorrelation analysis of traffic flow measurement data. This method requires only traffic flow information, which is available from the measurements of single loop detectors upstream and downstream from one link. Different from the existing maximum cross...
