Sister chromatid cohesion involves entrapment of sister DNAs by a cohesin ring created through association of a kleisin subunit (Scc1) with ATPase heads of Smc1/Smc3 heterodimers. Cohesin's association with chromatin involves subunits recruited by Scc1: Wapl, Pds5, and Scc3/SA, in addition to Scc2/4 loading complex. Unlike Pds5, Wapl, and Scc2/4, Scc3s are encoded by all eukaryotic genomes. Her...

objective: to consider incisional endometrioma (ie) as a differential diagnosis of abdominal disorders and to recommend different treatments as preventive measures. incisional endometrioma (ie), as a rare condition, usually develops in surgical scar of cesarean section or hysterectomy. materials and methods: we performed a retrospective review of 12 cases at department of surgery, shahrekord un...

This section contains an overview of the different functional areas of a marine container terminal and a summary of the main types of container handling systems. The main advantages and disadvantages of each type of handling system are also summarized without focusing on technical details. 2.1 Functional Areas of Terminal Operations As every other terminal, a container terminal is a complex sys...

INTRODUCTION We investigated whether (a) the inferior vena cava (IVC) is compressed in bowel obstruction and (b) some tracts are more compressed than others. METHODS Two groups of abdominal computed tomography (CT) examinations were collected retrospectively. Group O (N = 69) scans were positive for bowel obstruction, group C (N = 50) scans were negative for diseases. IVC anteroposterior and ...

The six bacteriophage T7 tail fibers, homo-trimers of gene product 17, are thought to be responsible for the first specific, albeit reversible, attachment to Escherichia coli lipopolysaccharide. The protein trimer forms kinked fibers comprised of an amino-terminal tail-attachment domain, a slender shaft, and a carboxyl-terminal domain composed of several nodules. Previously, we expressed, purif...

The Escherichia coli aminopeptidase P (AMPP) is a protease with subunits that consist of two domains. Solution studies have shown that the activity of AMPP is manganese-dependent [1], and structural studies have shown that its active site contains two metals that are coordinated by residues from the C-terminal domain [2]. AMPP has a structure that is similar to that of prolidase and creatinase,...

We report a 76-year-old male with enterovesical fistula. Symptoms were abdominal pain with urination, pneumaturia and fecaluria. History of transurethral resection of bladder polyps (benign). Barium and abdominal CT with contrast: intestinal fistula from terminal ileum and sigmoid to the bladder, which was thickened and showed inflammatory changes. We perform laparoscopic surgery. Existence of ...
