First person - Meraj Hasan Khan.

First Person is a series of interviews with the first authors of a selection of papers published in Journal of Cell Science, helping early-career researchers promote themselves alongside their papers. Meraj Hasan Khan is the first author on 'The Sharpin interactome reveals a role for Sharpin in lamellipodium formation via the Arp2/3 complex', published in Journal of Cell Science. Meraj is a PhD...

dmrad51/spnA mutant exhibit defects during somatic stages of developmental and show enhanced genomic damage, cell death and low temperature sensitivity

Homologous Recombination (HR) is one of the key pathways to repair Double Strand Breaks (DSBs). Rad51 serves an important function of catalysing strand exchange between two homologous chromosomes in the HR pathway. In higher organisms, Rad51 function is indispensable with its absence leading to early embryonic lethality, thus precluding any mechanistic probing of the system. In contrast, absenc...

Iris Recognition Using Image Moments and k-Means Algorithm

This paper presents a biometric technique for identification of a person using the iris image. The iris is first segmented from the acquired image of an eye using an edge detection algorithm. The disk shaped area of the iris is transformed into a rectangular form. Described moments are extracted from the grayscale image which yields a feature vector containing scale, rotation, and translation i...

GENERALIZED UNI-SOFT INTERIOR IDEALS IN ORDERED SEMIGROUPS

For all M,N∈P(U) such that M⊂N, we first introduced the definitions of (M,N)-uni-soft ideals and (M,N)-uni-soft interior ideals of an ordered semigroup and studied them. When M=∅ and N=U, we meet the ordinary soft ones. Then we proved that in regular and in intra-regular ordered semigroups the concept of (M,N)-uni-soft ideals and the (M,N)-uni-soft interior ideals coincide. Finally, we introduc...
