Drosophila Polycomb group (PcG) proteins silence homeotic genes through binding to Polycomb group response elements (PREs). Fab-7 is a PRE-containing regulatory element from the homeotic gene Abdominal-B. When present in multiple copies in the genome, Fab-7 can induce long-distance gene contacts that enhance PcG-dependent silencing. We show here that components of the RNA interference (RNAi) ma...

The fading affect bias (FAB) refers to the negative affect associated with autobiographical events fading faster than the positive affect associated with such events, a reliable and valid valence effect established by researchers in the USA. The present study examined the idea that the FAB is a ubiquitous emotion regulating phenomenon in autobiographical memory that is present in people from a ...

In a typical FAB factory, various types of products are produced around the clock. Complex constraints and re-entrant flows make it difficult for a human scheduler to generate a production schedule based on his/her experience and knowledge. This paper introduces a simulation based FAB scheduler, SeePlan®, which was developed by the authors. A Korea based semi-conductor and LCD maker designated ...

Abstract. Negative affect associated with autobiographical events fades faster over time than positive affect. This Fading Affect Bias (FAB) has been established in the individual and interpersonal domains. Two studies tested FAB intergroup relations Muslims ( N= 76 White British non-Muslim) opposite gender N = 242 women men) as target outgroups. The results indicated that exists an context, fo...

Why are some fields and occupations more diverse than others? In this review, we describe a conceptual framework—the field-specific ability beliefs (FAB) model—that provides promising answer to question. This model proposes that gender racial/ethnic imbalances in field or occupation result part from the confluence of two beliefs: (a) belief success context requires high levels intellectual (“br...

let h be a subgroup of a group g. h is said to be s-embedded in g if g has a normal t such that ht is an s-permutable subgroup of g and h ∩ t ≤ h sg, where h denotes the subgroup generated by all those subgroups of h which are s-permutable in g. in this paper, we investigate the influence of minimal s-embedded subgroups on the structure of finite groups. we determine the structure the finite grou...

Determining in vitro drug resistance may reveal clinically relevant information in childhood leukemia. Using the methyl-thiazol-tetrazolium assay, the resistance of untreated leukemic cells to 21 drugs was compared in 128 children with acute myeloid leukemia (AML) and 536 children with acute lymphoblastic leukemia (ALL). The differences between 3 French-American-British (FAB) types (M1/M2, M4, ...

Normal rat and mouse lymphoid cells were incubated at 0 degrees -4 degrees C for 1 h with purified rabbit or sheep antirat (mouse) immunoglobulin (Ig)-horseradish peroxidase (PO) conjugates or with Fab fragments of antibody coupled with peroxidase. Cells were subsequently washed and incubated in fresh medium, without labeled antibody or Fab fragments for 5-30 min at 20 degrees or 37 degrees C. ...
