EDITOR—In the October 2000 issue of the journal, five new cases of unbalanced translocations with partial monosomy 4p and partial trisomy 8p were described by Wieczorek et al and the authors concluded that de novo translocations causing Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome (WHS) are more frequent than previously estimated. In particular, unbalanced de novo translocations involving the short arms of chromos...

In this study, an alternative control method is proposed to improve the harmonic suppression efficiency of the active power filter in a distorted and unbalanced power system to compensate the perturbations caused by unbalanced non-linear loads. The proposed method uses a selftuning filter (STF) to process the grid voltage in order to provide a uniform reference voltage to obtain the correct ang...

Distributed generations are renewable sources that do not create environmental pollution and install near the site of consumption. Also, the generated power of wind and solar sources are faced with uncertainty due to the dependence on external factors. With determination of the appropriate location and size of these sources in distribution networks their positive effects can be realized. But it...

To minimize power losses, it is important to determine the location and size of local generators to be placed in unbalanced power distribution systems. On account of some inherent features of unbalanced distribution systems, such as radial structure, large number of nodes, a wide range of X/R ratios, the conventional techniques developed for the transmission systems generally fail on the determ...

5Recently, Otsuji and Takagaki have reported the accumulation of these compounds in 6azauracil treated bacteria, Journal of Biochem. (Japan), 46, 791 (1959). 6 Strominger, J. L., J. Biol. Chem., 224, 509 (1957). 7 Gray, C. H., and E. L. Tatum, these PROCEEDINGS, 30, 404 (1944). 8 Resumption of the DNA synthesis may have a decisive role in making the unbalanced growth of the organisms irreversib...

We present a male infant with multiple congenital anomalies including severe growth retardation, microcephaly, hypertelorism, low-set ears, bilateral cleft lip and palate, micrognathia, cryptorchidism with hypospadias, hemivertebrae, and complex heart defects. The karyotype was 46, XY, rec(22) dup(22q) inv(22)(p11q13)pat. The duplicated segment (q13.1 -->qter), a result of an unbalanced recombi...

We examined a girl presenting neuropsychomotor developmental delay and multiple malformations including antenatal and postnatal growth retardation, congenital heart defect, and facial dysmorphisms. Cytogenetic analysis was performed on peripheral blood lymphocytes with the GTG-banding technique, which revealed an unbalanced translocation: 46,XX,der(13)(13pter→13q34::3p24→3pter)pat. Karyotype an...

Poly[(R)-3-hydroxyalkanoic acids] [poly(HAs)] are a class of bacterial storage compounds that are synthesized during unbalanced growth by many Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Poly(HAs) are deposited intracellularly in the form of inclusions bodies (granules) to levels up to 90% of the cellular dry weight (Jendrossek, 2001; Jendrossek et al., 1996; Steinbüchel and Hein, 2001). In the l...
