Although applicability of kymographs is limited to nearly one-dimensional (1D) processes, they have been instrumental in the analysis and interpretation of a wide range of dynamic biological processes. We focus here on some applications of kymography in the study of one among the range of 'nearly-1D' processes -mitosis. Using this biological context, we suggest generalized procedures in kymogra...

in order to evaluate the effect of different planting patterns and different varieties of corn on quantity management in 2015 as a split-plot in a randomized complete block with 3 replications. the test pattern as the main factor in two levels in the atmosphere and the stack corn hybrids in four sub-levels maxima, asv3, magi 704 and 400 were hybrids. the effect of planting pattern, the maximum ...

BACKGROUND The four arms of the Holliday junction are known to stack in pairs forming two helical domains whose orientations are antiparallel, but twisted positively by about 60 degrees, based on electrophoretic, FRET and AFM measurements. Recent gel retardation studies suggest that a bowtie junction (containing 5',5' and 3',3' linkages in its crossover strands) may adopt a parallel conformatio...

The asymmetric unit of the title hydrate, C(9)H(8)ClN(3)O·0.5H(2)O, comprises two independent 1,2,3-triazole mol-ecules and a water mol-ecule of crystallization. The dihedral angles between the six- and five-membered rings in the 1,2,3-triazole mol-ecules are 12.71 (19) and 17.3 (2)°. The most significant different between them is found in the relative orientations of the terminal CH(2)OH group...

Using a simple synthetic protocol, heterohexacene analogues with a quadrupolar distribution of partial charges are readily available. In contrast to most other acenes, these compounds crystallize with a slipped-stack, brickwork-like packing which is mainly controlled by electrostatic interactions. This type of packing offers an advantage for organic semiconductors, because it allows more isotro...

This paper presents the design, implementation, and evaluation of BORG, a self-optimizing storage system that performs automatic block reorganization based on the observed I/O workload. BORG is motivated by three characteristics of I/O workloads: non-uniform access frequency distribution, temporal locality, and partial determinism in non-sequential accesses. To achieve its objective, BORG manag...

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C(18)H(18)ClN(3)O(4), is twisted about the chiral C atom with the dihedral angle between the two amide residues being 87.8 (5)°, but, overall, it can be described as curved, with the benzene rings lying on the same side of the mol-ecule [dihedral angle = 62.8 (4)°]. The conformation about the imine bond [1.294 (7) Å] is E. In the crystal, a two-dimensional a...

The mol-ecule of the title compound, C(24)H(16)BrN(3)OS(3), contains three approximately planar fragments, viz. an oxadiazole ring plus two adjacent thio-phene groups, and two phenothia-zine benzene rings, with largest deviations from the least-squares planes of 0.051 (3), 0.019 (4) and 0.014 (3) Å, respectively. The phenothia-zine unit adopts a butterfly conformation, with a dihedral angle of ...

Methods We evaluated 83 consecutive patients with suspected PH referred for CMR between January 2009 and July 2010. Imaging was performed on a Philips 1.5T MRI scanner. Retrospectively gated cines of a short axis stack were obtained using SSFP (temporal resolution 25-40 ms). LGE images of the same views were obtained 10 minutes after infusion of Gd-DTPA (0.2 mmol/kg) using phase sensitive inver...

In the title compound, C17H14N2O6, the conformation about the C=C double bond [1.345 (2) Å] is E, with the ketone moiety almost coplanar [C-C-C-C torsion angle = 9.5 (2)°] along with the phenyl ring [C-C-C-C = 5.9 (2)°]. The aromatic rings are almost perpendicular to each other [dihedral angle = 86.66 (7)°]. The 4-nitro moiety is approximately coplanar with the benzene ring to which it is attac...
