A new subgroup of avian leukosis virus (ALV), designated subgroup J, was identified recently. Viruses of this subgroup do not cross-interfere with viruses of the avian A, B, C, D, and E subgroups, are not neutralized by antisera raised against the other virus subgroups, and have a broader host range than the A to E subgroups. Sequence comparisons reveal that while the subgroup J envelope gene i...

Degradation of deoxyribonucleic acid and alteration of nucleic acid metabolism in suspension cultures of L-M cells infected with equine abortion virus. J. Bacteriol. 86:138-146. 1963.-Metabolic alterations in log-phase suspension cultures infected with equine abortion virus (EAV) were determined i...

Number concentrations of total and non-volatile aerosol particles with size diameters >0.01μm as well as particle size distributions (0.4–23μm diameter) were measured in situ in the Arctic lower stratosphere (10–20.5 km altitude). The measurements were obtained during the campaigns European Polar Stratospheric Cloud and Lee Wave Experiment (EUPLEX) and Envisat-Arctic-Validation (EAV). The campa...

The overwhelming amount of information stored in various data repositories including those available over the web emphasizes the relevance of knowledge integration methodologies and techniques to facilitate data sharing. The need for such integration has been already perceived for several years, but telecommunications and networking are quickly and dramatically changing the scenario. We impleme...

The lowest energy structures of FeO2 were determined by means of density functional theory techniques as implemented in the program DGauss 3.0.1. The calculations performed were of the all-electron type using two levels of theory, namely the local spin density approximation with the use of the Vosko–Wilk–Nusair (VWN) functional and the generalized gradient approximation (GGA) in the form of the...

Las sedaciones prolongadas y convencionales con opioides conllevaban un enlentecimiento en el proceso de destete de estos pacientes, más aún cuando, además, se utilizaban relajantes musculares para una adaptación al ventilador...

A variety of microbial communities and their genes (microbiome) exist throughout the human body, playing fundamental roles in human health and disease. The NIH funded Human Microbiome Project (HMP) Consortium has established a population-scale framework which catalyzed significant development of metagenomic protocols resulting in a broad range of qualitycontrolled resources and data including s...

It is a pleasant change to write about viruses that might have emerged but haven't. In this issue, Hussain and colleagues at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, the U.S. Department of Agriculture, and Harvard University report that recipients of measles, mumps, and rubella (MMR) vaccine show no evidence of infection by endogenous avian retroviruses, even though viral genomes and rev...
