TRA-1/GLI is best known as a master regulator of sex determination in the nematode C. elegans, but its fly and vertebrate homologs (e.g. Ci, GLI) regulate embryonic patterning and cell proliferation. In this paper, we show that TRA-1/GLI controls development of the two somatic gonadal precursors (SGPs) in both XX and XO animals, in addition to its role in sex determination. Normally, SGPs resid...

A low-rate distributed denial of service (DDoS) attack has the ability to obscure its tra c because it is very similar to legitimate tra c. It can easily evade current detection mechanisms. Rank correlation measures can quantify significant di↵erences between attack tra c and legitimate traffic based on their rank values. In this paper, we use two rank correlation measures, namely, Spearmen Ran...

The apparent fractal properties of TCP data tra c have recently attracted con siderable interest Most prominently fractional Brownian motion FBM has been used to model the long range dependence of tra c traces through self similarity Tra c being by nature a process of positive increments though a multifractal ap proach appears more natural In this study various traces of TCP tra c have been ana...

The conjugative transfer (tra) genes of a 52-kilobase (kb) staphylococcal plasmid, pGO1, were localized by deletion analysis and transposon insertional inactivation. All transfer-defective (Tra-) deletions and Tn551 or Tn917 transposon insertions occurred within a 14.5-kb BglII fragment. Deletions and insertions outside this fragment all left the plasmid transfer proficient (Tra+). The tra regi...

Transformer functions as a binary switch gene in the sex determination and sexual differentiation of Drosophila melanogaster and Ceratitis capitata, two insect species that separated nearly 100 million years ago. The TRA protein is required for female differentiation of XX individuals, while XY individuals express smaller, presumably nonfunctional TRA peptides and consequently develop into adul...

OBJECTIVE To compare transverse abdominis (TrA) contractility in stroke patients with hemiparesis and healthy adults using musculoskeletal ultrasonography. METHODS Forty-seven stroke patients with hemiparesis and 25 age-matched healthy control subjects participated in this study. Stroke patients were divided into three groups on the basis of their degree of ambulation. Group A consisted of 9 ...

It has been suggested that sexual identity in the germline depends upon the combination of a nonautonomous somatic signaling pathway and an autonomous X chromosome counting system. In the studies reported here, we have examined the role of the sexual differentiation genes transformer (tra) and doublesex (dsx) in regulating the activity of the somatic signaling pathway. We asked whether ectopic ...

Automatic symbolic tra c scene analysis is essential to many areas of IVHS (Intelligent Vehicle Highway Systems). Tra c scene information can be used to optimize tra c ow during busy periods, identify stalled vehicles and accidents, and aid the decision-making of an autonomous vehicle controller. Improvements in technologies for machine vision-based surveillance and high-level symbolic reasonin...

Roles of all-trans-retinoic acid (tRA), a metabolite of vitamin A (VA), in both tolerogenic and immunogenic responses are documented. However, how tRA affects the development of systemic autoimmunity is poorly understood. Here we demonstrate that tRA have paradoxical effects on the development of autoimmune lupus in the MRL/lpr mouse model. We administered, orally, tRA or VA mixed with 10% of t...
