Escherichia coli Elongation Factor G is inhibited ireversibly by the chemical modification of 1 cysteine residue with N-ethylmaleimide. At pH 5.2, this cysteine is approximately 130 times more reactive than beta-mercaptoethanol toward N-ethylmaleimide. Inhibition is not prevented by either the ribosome or GTP alone at concentrations approximately equal to that of Elongation Factor G, but in com...

This study investigates the effect of functionalized Multi-Walled Carbon NanoTube (f-MWCNT) on rheological properties of water-based drilling muds. Functionalization of multi-walled carbon nanotube was performed by introducing a hydrophilic functional group onto the surface of nanotubes via acid treatment. In order to guarantee the results, X-ray fluorescence, transmission...

A proper composition of stiffness and ductility parameters is required to obtain a resistant and economic structure. Accordingly, Chevron Knee Braced Frame (CKBF) seems appropriate due to its proper seismic performance. The advantage of this system comes to having the capability of rapid and cheap replacement of chevron knee elements after an earthquake occurs. In this research, response modifi...

Background: The role of mesenchymal stem cell in cellular therapy is the subject of interest for many researchers. The differentiation potential of MSCs and abilities in modulations of the recipient’s immune system makes them important cells in tissue regenerative studies. MSCs by releasing the proinflammatory cytokines play important role in immunomodulatory systems; however the signaling path...

In this study, we surveyed 1,200 parents who had children aged 3－7 years, and developed a Parental Strategies for Extrinsic Regulation of Children’s Emotions Scale. This scale measures how regulate two their children’s negative emotions: fear/anxiety anger. Following previous five subscales emotion regulation strategies (situation selection, situation modification, attentional deployment, reapp...
