Avian and viral p60src proteins were expressed from a galactose-inducible promoter in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. Both the viral and cellular src proteins produced in yeast cells were myristoylated at their amino termini, as is the case for src proteins expressed in chicken embryo fibroblasts. The viral src protein produced in yeast autophosphorylated at tyrosine-416 in vivo and had app...

Ten years after the introduction of the Senegalese Antiretroviral Drug Access Initiative in 1998, we conducted a retrospective study of the epidemiological and clinical profiles and outcome of HIV-infected patients hospitalized in the Infectious Diseases Clinic of Fann Teaching Hospital in Dakar between 2007 and 2008.

▼ Background: We report a series of 527 patients with unilateral vestibular schwannomas (VS) who underwent fully endoscopic resection of their tumors during the period of October, 2001 to July, 2010. Patients ’ outcomes were evaluated, with specifi c regard to hearing preservation, facial nerve function, postoperative complications and completeness of the resection.

Infrared absorption spectroscopy was used to investigate the chlorination of hydrogen-terminated Si 111 surfaces by three different methods: a exposure to a saturated solution of phosphorus pentachloride PCl5 in chlorobenzene; b exposure to chlorine gas, Cl2 g , and c exposure to Cl2 g under UV illumination. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and first principles model clusters calculations were ...
