The Swiss wastewater isolate Klebsiella pneumoniae 704SK6, encoding OXA-48 and CTX-M-15 β-lactamases, was fully sequenced. The assembly resulted in an open chromosome of 5,208,104 bp in size (G+C content, 57.6%) and four closed plasmid sequences of 209,651, 197,670, 65,998, and 63,605 bp in size.

Bisphosphonates (BP) do not have regulatory approval for use as adjuvant therapy in early breast cancer due to the failure of pivotal trials such AZURE and NSABP B-34. However, an EBCTBG meta-analysis randomized data showed clear clinical benefit from BP postmenopausal (PM) women both ESMO ASCO guidelines recommend their this population. Retrospective analyses MAF biomarker B-34 demonstrated a ...

Several modifications that have been made to the NDDO core-core interaction term and to the method of parameter optimization are described. These changes have resulted in a more complete parameter optimization, called PM6, which has, in turn, allowed 70 elements to be parameterized. The average unsigned error (AUE) between calculated and reference heats of formation for 4,492 species was 8.0 kc...

This study was directed at the understanding of the function of CCoAOMT isolated from Acacia auriculiformis x Acacia mangium. Full length cDNA of the Acacia hybrid CCoAOMT (AhCCoAOMT) was 1024-bp long, containing 750-bp coding regions, with one major open reading frame of 249 amino acids. On the other hand, full length genomic sequence of the CCoAOMT (AhgflCCoAOMT) was 2548 bp long, containing ...

We study reaction-di¤usion systems of propagator-controller type in the one-dimensional unit interval. When propagator di¤uses slowly, we establish the existence of transition layer equilibria by using singular perturbation expansions and a Lyapunov-Schmidt reduction method. Our approach to the existence also enables us to simultaneously obtain a stability criterion for the layer equilibria.

Galanin is a hormone 29 or 30 amino acids (aa) long that is widely distributed within the body and exerts numerous biological effects in vertebrates. To fully understand its physiological roles in reptiles, we analyzed preprogalanin cDNA structure and expression in the turtle pituitary. Using the Chinese soft-shell turtle (Pelodiscus sinensis order Testudines), we obtained a 672-base pair (bp) ...

The objective of this study was to characterize and validate the candidate point mutation in Calcium channel, voltagedependent, alpha-2/ delta subunit 1 (CACNA2D1) gene in Karan Fries (Bos taurus x Bos indicus) cattle. The CACNA2D1 gene reported as one of the potential candidate gene influencing Somatic cell Score and Mastitis. A PCR product of 249 bp amplifying the exon 19 and partial 18 and 1...

background and objectives : dna molecular weight marker is widely used in molecular biology experiments incurring considerable costs on low-budget settings. materials and methods : here a pcr-supported procedure is described that uses 10 primer pairs targeting chromosomal dna from the harmless vaccinal bacillus anthracis sterne 34f2 strain as template. a single pcr protocol is used to reproduce...
