V(D)J recombination

How is it regulated? V(D)J recombination is regulated in a tissue-specific, lineage-specific and stage-specific manner. The V, D and J segments are recombined in an ordered sequence (D–J rearrangements before V–DJ). As you might expect, the process is partly regulated via the expression of RAG1 and RAG2, but it is also mediated by the differential accessibility of particular antigen receptor lo...

Jonsson-like partition relations and j: V -> V

Working in the theory “ZF + There is a nontrivial elementary embedding j : V → V ”, we show that a final segment of cardinals satisfies certain square bracket finite and infinite exponent partition relations. As a corollary to this, we show that this final segment is composed of Jonsson cardinals. We then show how to force and bring this situation down to small alephs. A prototypical result is ...

The Axiom of Infinity and transformations j: V -> V

We suggest a new approach for addressing the problem of establishing an axiomatic foundation for large cardinals. An axiom asserting the existence of a large cardinal can naturally be viewed as a strong Axiom of Infinity. However, it has not been clear on the basis of our knowledge of ω itself, or of generally agreed upon intuitions about the true nature of the mathematical universe, what the r...

J. B. v. M. B. (2001)

In 2001, the Supreme Court of New Jersey decided a dispute between a divorced couple over cryopreserved preembryos created through in vitro [5] fertilization [6] (IVF) during the couple?s marriage. The former wife (J.B.) wanted the preembryos destroyed, while her former husband (M.B.) wanted them to be used for future implantation [7] attempts, such as by an infertile couple. In J.B. v. M.B. (2...
