Source/Description: The XMEL4 clone is a 1.5 kb cDNA subcloned into the EcoRI site of pBluescript SKII +. XMEIA was isolated from a human melanoma cDNA library. Sequence analysis showed complete homology between XMEL4 and the 2,3-biphosphoglycerate mutase (BPGM) cDNA sequence (1, 2). Polymorphism: Both Taql and Mspl detect two-allele polymorphisms when probed with XMEIA Frequency: Allele freque...

Continuous cell lines, SK-N-SH and SK-N-MC, were established in cell culture from human metastatic neuro blastoma tissue and maintained in vitro for 1 to 2 years. SK-N-SH comprises two morphologically distinctive cell types, a small spiny cell and a large epithelioid cell. SKN-MC is composed of small fibroblast-like cells with scant cytoplasm. In monolayer culture both cell lines form dis orien...

A series of yeast shuttle vectors and host strains has been created to allow more efficient manipulation of DNA in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Transplacement vectors were constructed and used to derive yeast strains containing nonreverting his3, trp1, leu2 and ura3 mutations. A set of YCp and YIp vectors (pRS series) was then made based on the backbone of the multipurpose plasmid pBLUESCRIPT. The...

Let n; k be fixed natural numbers with 1 ? n and let An+1,k,2k,...,sk denote an (n+1)x(n+1) complex multidiagonal matrix having s = [n/k] sub- superdiagonals at distances k, 2k,...,sk from the main diagonal. We prove that set MDn,k of all such matrices is closed under multiplication powers positive exponents. Moreover subset consisting nonsingular taking inverses negative In particular we obtai...

SK-UT-1 uterine leiomyosarcomas (Ut-LMS) cells were transduced with a fatty acid synthase (FASN)-containing retroviral vector to recapitulate the "lipogenic phenotype of cancer." Consistent with this model, forced expression of FASN enhanced SK-UT-1 proliferation, migration, and cellular motion. Further investigation showed FASN promotes trimethylation of H3K9 (H3K9me3) and acetylation of H3K27...

Introduction: Dental anomalies have been widely examined, but no such studies have been conducted in Norway. The purpose of this study was to examine the prevalence of dental anomalies and investigate their possible association with gender and dental occlusion. Methods: Panoramic radiographs and study models of 500, 12-year-old school children (273 girls, 227 boys) were analyzed for the presenc...

Let pk = (N , e) be an RSA public key with corresponding secret key sk = (p, q , d , dp , dq , q −1 p ). Assume that we obtain partial error-free information of sk, e.g., assume that we obtain half of the most significant bits of p. Then there are well-known algorithms to recover the full secret key. As opposed to these algorithms that allow for correcting erasures of the key sk, we present for...
