Truncation without Truncation?

Canine MPV17 truncation without clinical manifestations

Mitochondrial DNA depletion syndromes (MDS) are often serious autosomal recessively inherited disorders characterized by tissue-specific mtDNA copy number reduction. Many genes, including MPV17, are associated with the hepatocerebral form of MDS. MPV17 encodes for a mitochondrial inner membrane protein with a poorly characterized function. Several MPV17 mutations have been reported in associati...

Truncation exercises

One of the most basic tools in the theory of automorphic forms is the truncation operator, first defined in [Langlands: 1966] but elaborated in later work of Jim Arthur (particularly [Arthur: 1978] and [Arthur: 1980]). In spite of its fundamental nature, there are many mysteries about it. In this article I’ll not dispel many of these, but I’ll at least motivate its definition by relating it to ...

Theoretical distribution of truncation lengths in incremental truncation libraries.

Incremental truncation is a method for constructing libraries of every one base pair truncation of a segment of DNA. Incremental truncation libraries can be created using a time-dependent nuclease method or through the incorporation of alpha-phosphothioate dNTPs by PCR or by primer extension (THIO(pcr) truncation and THIO(extension) truncation, respectively). Libraries created by the fusion of ...

Long Run Variance Estimation Using Steep Origin Kernels without Truncation

Second-order balanced truncation

We consider second-order linear time-invariant systems. The objective of this paper is to present a new method for constructing a reduced system by preserving the second-order structure of the original system. This new model reduction method uses a variant of the well-known balanced truncation technique applied to second-order gramians. We also compare it with another existing technique. © 2004...
