N6-Adenine methylation is an important epigenetic signal, which regulates various processes, such as DNA replication and repair and transcription. In gamma-proteobacteria, Dam is a stand-alone enzyme that methylates GATC sites, which are non-randomly distributed in the genome. Some of these overlap with transcription factor binding sites. This work describes a global computational analysis of a...

Resource managers are increasingly being challenged by stakeholder groups to consider dam removal as a policy option and as a tool for watershed management. As more dam owners face high maintenance costs, and rivers as spawning grounds for anadromous fish become increasingly valuable, dam removal may provide the greatest net benefit to society. This article reviews the impact of Endangered Spec...

Dam identification (DamID) is a powerful technique to generate genome-wide maps of chromatin protein binding. Due to its high sensitivity, it is particularly suited to study the genome interactions of chromatin proteins in small tissue samples in model organisms such as Drosophila Here, we report an intein-based approach to tune the expression level of Dam and Dam-fusion proteins in Drosophila ...

Desktop software agents are background processes that notify a computer user of certain predefined events. The complexity of desktop computing is increasing due to the proliferation of software agents. A desktop agent manager (DAM) may become an important component of desktop computing. This article focuses on the decision mechanism for the DAM to decide which agents should be allowed to access...

The present study concerns seasonal variations, correlation coefficient and biodiversity indices of zooplanktons during January-December, 2008 in the Harsool-Savangi dam, Aurangabad, India. A total of 25 genera were recorded of which 10 were Rotifers, 8 Cladocerons, 5 Copepods and 2 Ostracods. Present study revealed maximum percentage wise compositions of Rotifers at north site were 58.28%, Cla...

This paper aimed to review and compare the conventional and advanced numerical techniques used for stability analysis of rock slopes. Two important methods of probabilistic limit equilibrium analysis and distinct element method are used to check the stability of northern abutment rock slope of Gotvand dam (iran) and the advantages and disadvantages of each method is discussed. The results of th...

Understanding the spatial and temporal variation of nutrient concentrations, loads, and their distribution from upstream tributaries is important for the management of large lakes and reservoirs. The Three Gorges Dam was built on the Yangtze River in China, the world's third longest river, and impounded the famous Three Gorges Reservoir (TGR). In this study, we analyzed total nitrogen (TN) conc...

Point source n~casurcmcnts (e.g. sun photmnctcr dam, weather station observations) are often Used to constrain radiative transfer models such as MODTRAN/I..OWTRAN7 when atmosphcricall y correcting AVIRIS imagery. “l’he basic assumption is that the atmosphere is horizontally homogeneous throughout the entire area. If the target area of interest is located a distance away from the point mcasurcmc...
