FSCC Plus/Minus Grading Policy

Plus minus lid syndrome with ataxia.

Plus minus lid syndrome is an ocular syndrome characterized by unilateral ptosis and contralateral lid retraction. Also when the ipsilateral lid is raised manually, the contralateral retracted lid does not revert. This patient presented with features of plus minus lid syndrome with ataxia due to a vascular mesencephalic lesion.

Plus and minus sexual agglutinins from Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.

Gametes of the unicellular green alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii undergo sexual adhesion via enormous chimeric Hyp-rich glycoproteins (HRGPs), the plus and minus sexual agglutinins, that are displayed on their flagellar membrane surfaces. We have previously purified the agglutinins and analyzed their structural organization using electron microscopy. We report here the cloning and sequencing of ...

Regular languages of plus - and minus - ( in ) decomposable permutations

In this paper we show that the sets of plusrespectively minus-decomposable permutations of a regular class under the rank encoding form regular sublanguages. Plusrespectively minus-decomposable permutations are permutations allowing for a special kind of block-decomposition. The language theoretic results shown have di erent approaches, even though the properties of plusand minus-decomposabilit...

Contribution of plus and minus end pathways to microtubule turnover.

Turnover is important for the maintenance and remodeling of the cytoskeleton during the processes of cell morphogenesis, mitosis and motility. Microtubule (MT) turnover is thought to occur by dynamic instability, growth and shortening at distal (plus) ends. Recent observation of MT release from the centrosome and depolymerization from proximal (minus) ends indicates the existence of a minus end...
