Phytophthora megasperma Drechs. f. sp. glycinea Kuan & Erwin (PMG) cell wall glucan has been extensively characterized as an elicitor of the pterocarpan phytoalexins, the glyceollins in soybean (Glycine max L.). Just recently, this glucan was shown to be a potent elicitor of conjugates of the isoflavones, daidzein and genistein as well. Here we report that PMG wall glucan also induces a rapid a...

In most organisms, germ cells are formed distant from the somatic part of the gonad and thus have to migrate along and through a variety of tissues to reach the gonad. Transepithelial migration through the posterior midgut (PMG) is the first active step during Drosophila germ cell migration. Here we report the identification of a novel G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR), Tre1, that is essential ...

Polymicrogyria (PMG) is a structural brain abnormality involving the cerebral cortex that results from impaired neuronal migration and although several genes have been implicated, many cases remain unsolved. In this study, exome sequencing in a family where three fetuses had all been diagnosed with PMG and cerebellar hypoplasia allowed us to identify regions of the genome for which both chromos...

In this paper the features of multiple material gate silicon-on-insulator MOSFETs are presented and compared with single material gate silicon-on-insulator MOSFET structures. The results indicate that the multiple material gate structures reduce short channel effects such as drain induce barrier lowering, hot electron effect and better current characteristics in comparison with single material ...

This study examines whether conventional bank lending rates influence Islamic financing in Indonesia and Malaysia that apply the dual-banking system. We employ ARDL, non-linear ARDL (NARDL) model, Pooled Mean Group (PMG). Evidence of long-run link between rate is found. However, instead symmetry, them asymmetry. The asymmetric pricing some specific contracts such as Mudharaba Murabaha strongly ...

Abstract Purpose Uridine diphosphate glucose pyrophosphorylase (UGPase) plays an important role in metabolism, catalyzing the reversible formation and decomposition of UDP-glucose (UDPG). In previous work, we found that UGPase is a key enzyme lyophilization response for Lactobacillus acidophilus ( L. ). However, its function regulatory mechanism freeze-drying stress are unknown. Herein, effect ...

In this paper we investigate the dynamics of the earthquake flow defined by Thurston on the bundle PMg of geodesic measured laminations. This flow is a natural generalization of twisting along simple closed geodesics. We discuss the relationship between the Teichmüller horocycle flow on the bundle QMg of holomorphic quadratic differentials, and the earthquake flow. In fact, the basic ergodic pr...
