An active miniature inverted repeat transposable element (MITE), mPing, was discovered by computer-assisted analysis of rice genome sequence. The mPing element is mobile in rice cell culture and in a few rice strains where it has been amplified to >1,000 copies during recent domestication. However, determination of the transposase source and characterization of the mechanism of transposition ha...

The transposition of EU law into national law is a significant part of the EU policy process. However, political scientists haven’t devoted to it the attention that it deserves. The author, a political scientist, construes transposition as a part of the wider process of policy implementation. Following implementation theory from the field of public policy, the article outlines three sets of fac...

a 29-year-old woman was referred to our hospital due to exacerbation in dyspnea on exertion and easy fatigability. a known case of congenitally corrected transposition of the great vessels and congenital complete heart block, she had already received a permanent single-chamber pacemaker. decision was made to implant a biventricular pacemaker for the treatment of the failing heart. excellent cor...

introduction patients with palliated congenital heart disease may present later in life for major, non-cardiac surgical procedures. although alternative surgical techniques are now available for the treatment of the transposition of the great arteries (tga), an atrial level baffle (mustard or senning procedure) was previously performed. long-term adverse effects of the atrial level switch inclu...
