The suppression of the $\psi$(2S) nuclear modification factor has been seen as a trademark signature final state effects in large collision systems for decades. In small systems, deviations from unity had attributed to cold matter until observation strong differential $p/d+$A collisions, which suggests presence effects. this paper, we present results J/$\psi$ and measurements dimuon decay chann...

PURPOSE To calculate the indirect costs of Patient Specific Instruments (PSI) based on an opportunity cost, cost of efforts and a supply chain cost model to compare PSI for value with conventional total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS In 81 patients the total (direct+indirect) cost of PSI-assisted TKA was compared with conventional TKA. Surgical times and coronal mechanical alignment were me...

We characterized the hyperpolarization of the electrical potential profile of flounder intestinal cells that accompanies inhibition of NaCl cotransport. Several observations indicate that hyperpolarization of psi a and psi b (delta psi a,b) results from inhibition of NaCl entry across the apical membrane: (a) the response was elicited by replacement of mucosal solution Cl or Na by nontransporte...

PSI is a large protein-pigment complex located in the thylakoid membrane in cyanobacteria, plants, and algae. Although the structure and components of PSI are well characterized, mechanisms that orchestrate its assembly are poorly understood. In this study, we discovered a novel nucleus-encoded protein, Photosystem I Assembly3 (PSA3), that is required for PSI accumulation. PSA3 is conserved amo...

The water relations parameters involved in assimilate flow into developing wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grains were measured at several points from the flag leaf to the endosperm cavity in normally watered (Psi approximately -0.3 MPa) and water-stressed plants (Psi approximately -2 MPa). These included direct measurement of sieve tube turgor and several independent approaches to the measurement...

An isolated "native" photosystem I (PSI complex) contains three spectral populations of chlorophyll a antennae (Mullet, Burke, Arntzen 1980 Plant Physiol 65: 814-822). It was hypothesized that nearly one-half of these antennae ( approximately 45 Chl/P(700)) are associated with polypeptides of 21,500 to 24,500 daltons. The present study utilizes two developmental systems to verify this associati...

The photosynthetic sensitivity to high light differs among understory plants of shade- and sun- established tree species. Shade-established tree species are sensitive to high light but the underlying photosynthetic mechanism has not been fully resolved. In the present study, we examined the responses of photosystem I (PSI) and photosystem II (PSII) to high light in shade leaves of a shade-estab...

BACKGROUND Mitochondria play pivotal roles in cell death; the loss of mitochondrial membrane potential (delta psi(m)) is the earliest event that commits the cell to death. Here, we report novel real-time imaging of delta psi(m) in individual cardiomyocytes within perfused rat hearts using 2-photon laser-scanning microscopy, which has unique advantages over conventional confocal microscopy: grea...

The sequence of tRNA tyrosine from the fission yeast Schizosaccharomyces pombe is pCUCCUGAUm1 GGUG psi AGDDGGDDAUCACACor (psi) CCGGUG psi Ai6 AACCGGUUGm7 GUm5C GCUAGT psi CGm1 AUUCUGGUCAGGAGACCAOH. This sequence differs in 30 nucleotides from the tRNA-Tyr seqence of the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae. It has a unique anticodon stem of only four GC base pairs. The normal fifth pair posit...
