In this article we study the MOR cryptosystem. We use the group of unitriangular matrices over a finite field as the non-abelian group in the MOR cryptosystem. We show that a cryptosystem similar to the ElGamal cryptosystem over finite fields can be built using the proposed groups and a set of automorphisms of these groups. We also show that the security of this proposed MOR cryptosystem is equ...

MicroRNA-offset RNAs (moRs) were first identified in simple chordates and subsequently in mouse and human cells by deep sequencing of short RNAs. MoRs are derived from sequences located immediately adjacent to microRNAs (miRs) in the primary miR (pri-miR). Currently moRs are considered to be simply a by-product of miR biosynthesis that lack biological activity. Here we show for the first time t...

The signaling molecule RGS9-2 is a potent modulator of G-protein-coupled receptor function in striatum. Our earlier work revealed a critical role for RGS9-2 in the actions of the μ-opioid receptor (MOR) agonist morphine. In this study, we demonstrate that RGS9-2 may act as a positive or negative modulator of MOR-mediated behavioral responses in mice depending on the agonist administered. Parall...

The septum initiation network (SIN) regulates multiple functions during late mitosis to ensure successful completion of cytokinesis in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. One mechanism by which the SIN promotes cytokinesis is by inhibiting a competing polarity pathway called the MOR, which is required for initiation of polarized growth following completion of cytokinesis. Mutual antagonism between the t...

Dopamine and opioid neurotransmitter systems share many functions such as regulation of reward and pleasure. μ-Opioid receptors (MOR) modulate the mesolimbic dopamine system in ventral tegmental area and striatum, key areas implicated in reward. We hypothesized that dopamine and opioid receptor availabilities correlate in vivo and that this correlation is altered in obesity, a disease with alte...

For the sake of improving product quality and economy, a series cold-pressing experiments were carried out to investigate material properties engineered wood flooring with emulsion polymer isocyanate adhesive. Effect pressing time, pressure, adhesive spreading rate on modulus elasticity (MOE) rupture (MOR) was analyzed based orthogonal experimental design. According results, both MOE MOR positi...

The genes of the trithorax group (trxG) in Drosophila melanogaster are required to maintain the pattern of homeotic gene expression that is established early in embryogenesis by the transient expression of the segmentation genes. The precise role of each of the diverse trxG members and the functional relationships among them are not well understood. Here, we report on the isolation of the trxG ...

Mu opioid receptor (MOR) is the main site of interaction for major clinical analgesics, particularly morphine. MOR expression is regulated at the transcriptional and post-transcriptional levels. However, the protein expression of the MOR gene is relatively low and the translational control of MOR gene has not been well studied. The 5'-untranslated region (UTR) of the human MOR (OPRM1) mRNA cont...
