Some of the properties of blood group A specific substances from enzymatic digests of pools of hog stomachs have been presented in the preceding report (1). However, since it was known that not all hog stomachs show A activity (2), it was considered of interest to determine whether better products could be isolated from individual hog stomachs. When stomach linings from a number of individual h...

Mitogen-activated protein kinase (MAPK) cascades are frequently used signal transduction mechanisms in eukaryotes. Of the five MAPK cascades in Saccharomyces cerevisiae, the high-osmolarity glycerol response (HOG) pathway functions to sense and respond to hypertonic stress. We utilized a partial loss-of-function mutant in the HOG pathway, pbs2-3, in a high-copy suppressor screen to identify pro...

HOG features are effective for object detection, but their focus on local regions makes them highdimensional features. To reduce the memory required for the HOG features, this paper proposes a new feature, R-HOG, which creates binary codes from the HOG features extracted from two local regions. This approach enables the created binary codes to reflect the relationships between local regions. Co...

This paper describes a Histogram of Oriented Gradients (HOG) feature extraction accelerator that features a VLSI-oriented HOG algorithm with early classification in Support Vector Machine (SVM) classification, dual core architecture for parallel feature extraction and multiple object detection, and detection-window-size scalable architecture with reconfigurable MAC array for processing objects ...

Pedestrian detection have been currently devoted to the extraction of effective pedestrian features, which has become one of the obstacles in pedestrian detection application according to the variety of pedestrian features and their large dimension. Based on the theoretical analysis of six frequently-used features, SIFT, SURF, Haar, HOG, LBP and LSS, and their comparison with experimental resul...

To cope with life-threatening high osmolarity, yeast activates the high-osmolarity glycerol (HOG) signaling pathway, whose core element is the Hog1 MAP kinase cascade. Activated Hog1 regulates the cell cycle, protein translation, and gene expression. Upstream of the HOG pathway are functionally redundant SLN1 and SHO1 signaling branches. However, neither the osmosensor nor the signal generator ...

In the current scenario, information retrieval is one of the major research areas. The retrieval process in image databases, evaluation of similarity and their mutual relationships depends on the content representation with various features. Since 1992, the multidimensional research has been carried out to meet out the aim with color, shape, texture and spatial layout as the features. In this p...

Previous studies (1, 2) have indicated that gluconate is extensively metabolized in the mammal without, prior conversion to glucose. The int,erpretation of experiments performed with labeled gluconate has rested upon the assumption (3) that gluconate is converted to 6-phosphogluconate in t,he course of its metabolism. The enzyme, gluconokinase, which catalyzes this reaction has been partially p...

In this paper, we propose a shear high-order gradient (SHOG) operator by combining the and (HOG) operator. Compared with HOG operator, proposed SHOG can incorporate more directionality detect abundant edge information. Based on extend total variation (TV) norm to (SHOTV), then SHOTV deblurring model. We also study some properties of show that matrices are Block Circulant Blocks (BCCB) when angl...

The reaction between hog renin and rat angiotensinogen followed Michaelis-Menten kinetics. A Km value of 1,109 ng angiotensin/ml was determined for the rate of angiotensin formation at pH 7.4 and 37°C. The pH optimum for the reaction of hog renin with rat angiotensinogen was between 6.8 and 7.0. Pepstatin inhibited the reaction in a noncompetitive way. The maximum inhibitory effect occurred at ...
