This report describes for the first time the identification of four forms of biliverdin reductase including two biliverdin-MP reductases and two biliverdin-Ma reductases, designated isozymes I and I1 and isozymes I11 and IV, respectively, in human liver cytosolic fractions. The four forms of biliverdin reductase were purified to homogeneity. There was a 7,80&15,000-fold increase in specific act...

The occurrence of hairless piebald mice trisomic for the chromosome segments of the T6M chromosome has shown that the LG I11 loci hr and s are not located on T6M. The T6 breakpoint in LG I11 is therefore in the position h-s-T6. T6M must carry the gene FkZ, which is located on the far side of the T6 breakpoint from hr in LG 111.-T6 reduces recombination in the hr-s region.-Trisomy for the chromo...

The Stark components of the F3=2, I9=2 and I11=2 manifolds have been characterized using the ̄uorescence spectra for the F3=2 ® I9=2 and F3=2 ® I11=2 transitions of Nd3‡in YVO4 laser host. The thermal e€ects on the width and position of the popular laser line at 1061.7 nm (R1 ® Y1) of the inter-Stark transition within the F3=2 ® I11=2 intermanifold transition of Nd3‡:YVO4 have also been investi...

Apolipoproteins C-I1 (apoC-11) and C-111 (apoC-111) are distributed among all the major lipoprotein classes, particularly very low density (VLDL) and high density lipoproteins (HDL). We have determined concentrations of apoC-I1 and apoC-111 in VLDL and HDL in subjects with a wide range of VLDL triglyceride and HDL cholesterol levels, and correlated these levels with fractional catabolic rates (...

Three molecular species of apolipophorin I11 were purified from adult locust hemolymph by gel filtration and ionexchange chromatography, and named apo-111-a, apo-111-b, and apo-111-c, respectively. They were indistinguishable by SDSpolyacrylamide gel electrophoresis, immunodiffusion, and in amino acid composition; however, they had different isoelectric points (5.43 for a, 5.11 forb, and 4.98 f...

Processive DNA synthesis, a property of DNA polymerase I11 holoenzyme of Escherichia coli, was not achieved by combining the pol I11 core (a, e, and B subunits) and the 8 and y subunits. An activity that restored processivity to these subunits was found in crude extracts and was overproduced 4-fold in cells with plasmids amplifying the 7 and y subunits. Purified to homogeneity, the activity, as...

We use administrative data from Sweden to study adherence 63 medication-related guidelines. compare the of patients without personal access medical expertise that with access, namely doctors and their close relatives. estimate observably similar have 3.8 percentage points lower adherence, relative a baseline rate 54.4 percent among those access. Our findings suggest an important role in nonadhe...

This paper assesses the impact of substituting clopidogrel with ticagelor to treat patients after an acute attack Ischemic Heart Disease from perspective Jordanian MOH in its tenders, using Budget Impact Analysis (BIA). A multiple regression analysis used estimate elasticities associated implementing two treatments, and then Matlab compare old new treatments. The study recommends gradually subs...

This article discusses the use of a popular online instructional management system to teach moral hazard by having students make decisions about whether to seek health care under two simulated scenarios – with and without insurance. JEL classification: A20, G22, I11

that they are unlikely to be complexes between protein phosphatase-I11 and/or the il and iz inhibitors. Muscle extracts which had been filtered through Sephadex G-25 were assayed for protein phosphatase activities in the presence of a quantity of i2 sufficient to inhibit protein phosphatase-I11 by 90 %. Inhibition of phosphorylase phosphatase and glycogen synthase phosphatases-1 and -2 was 80 %...
