With the aim of the production of human factor VIII antigen and its corresponding antibody an epitope coding fragment of the light-chain of hFVIII, fused to a His6-tag, was isolated and over-expressed in Escherichia coli. The over-expressed hFVIII-epitope containing peptide was confirmed by its reaction with a rabbit serum directed against native hFVIII as well as antiHis6-tag antibody. An expr...

Using feature-based Tree Adjoining Grammar (TAG), this paper presents linguistically motivated analyses of constructions claimed to require multi-component adjunction. These feature-based TAG analyses permit parsing of these constructions using an existing uniication-based Earley-style TAG parser, thus obviating the need for a multi-component TAG parser without sacriicing linguistic coverage fo...

In lowand medium-budget association studies, a limited number of tag SNPs are selected out of a large set of available SNPs previously typed in an initial cohort. These tag SNPs are then typed in a larger set of control and affected individuals. Current association studies pick the set of tag SNPs based on the correlation criterion. Here we show that association studies that use tag SNPs select...

Websites that provide content creation and sharing features have become quite popular recently. These sites allow users to categorize and browse content using ‘tags’ or free-text keyword topics. Since users contribute and tag social media content across a variety of social web platforms, creating new knowledge from distributed tag data has become a matter of performing various tasks, including ...

Music tags include different types of musical information. The tags of same or different types can be assigned together by human to a specific song. This may lead to some specific tag co-occurrence patterns among auditorily similar songs. In this paper, we propose a novel generative approach via Latent Music Semantic Analysis (LMSA) to model and predict the tag co-occurrence pattern of a song. ...

On the basic of fractal theory and folded technique, a miniature antenna for 2.45 GHz radio frequency identification (RFID) tag applications is designed and analyzed in the present paper. In order to realize the miniaturization of tag antenna, a Hilbert fractal structure is used. Impedance matching between antenna and IC chip is of great importance for improving tag performances. A folded techn...

BACKGROUND Photosynthetic oleaginous microalgae are considered promising feedstocks for biofuels. The marine microalga, Nannochloropsis oceanica, has been attracting ever-increasing interest because of its fast growth, high triacylglycerol (TAG) content, and available genome sequence and genetic tools. Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) catalyzes the last and committed step of TAG biosynthes...

OBJECTIVES The current study evaluates the incremental value of transluminal attenuation gradient (TAG), TAG with corrected contrast opacification (CCO), and TAG with exclusion of calcified coronary segments (ExC) over coronary computed tomography angiogram (CTA) alone using fractional flow reserve (FFR) as the gold standard. BACKGROUND TAG is defined as the contrast opacification gradient al...

Conventional tag cloud systems can only present the frequency of tags and the connection of tags and tag clusters, but cannot properly express the strength of the relationships. In this paper we tackle this problem by improving the representation of tag clustering. We combine the advantages of conventional systems to create a multi-level interactive tag cloud system using clustering scheme. In ...

Following digestion of dietary triacylglycerol (TAG), intestinal epithelial cells absorb fatty acids and monoacylglycerols that are resynthesized into TAG by enzymes located on the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). A study in rat liver (Abo-Hashema, K. A., M. H. Cake, G. W. Power, and D. J. Clarke. 1999. Evidence for TAG synthesis in the lumen of microsomes via a lipolysis-esterification pathway invo...
