This article is part of the program described in [3]. We study the Phan amalgams and their universal completions that occur for q = 3 in rank n = 3 for the diagram A3 = D3, corresponding to SU(4, 3) ∼= Spin−(6, 3). We show that the associated geometries admit universal 9-fold coverings, by showing that the universal completion of the Phan amalgam is the central extension of SU(4, 3) by its Schu...

Homologous integration into the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe has not been well characterized. In this study, we have examined integration of plasmids carrying the leul+ and ura4' genes into their chromosomal loci. Genomic DNA blot analysis demonstrated that he majority of transformants have one or more copies of the plasmid vector integrated via homologous recombination with a much s...

chemokine and chemokine receptors show several variations which may affect resistance to infectious disease. a 32 base pair deletion in the open reading frame of the human ccr5 gene (ccr5?32) results in producing a truncated antigen which fails to be presented on the surface of target cells. ccr5?32 variant is not a functional co receptor for hiv-1 entrance and delay the onset of acquired immun...

Toll-like receptors (TLRs) play a crucial role in early innate immune responses to inflammatory agents and pathogens. In the brain, some members of the TLR family are expressed in glial cells and neurons. In particular, TLR4 has been involved in learning and memory processes, stress-induced adaptations, and pathogenesis of neurodegenerative disorders. However, the role of TLR4 in emotional beha...
