Eight single-flow, continuous culture fermentors were used in Exp. 1 to study the effects of forage source on ruminal bacterial N metabolism and carbohydrate digestion. Forages included alfalfa, cicer milkvetch, birdsfoot trefoil and sainfoin with respective CP concentrations of 26.0, 28.7, 26.3 and 20.0%. Each forage provided 100% of the substrate for microbial metabolism and supplied 2.6 g N/...

The Stinking Bean Trefoil (Anagyris foetida L.) Structure in Zagros (Case Study of Gilan-e Gharb Forests)

Vibrio cholerae cytolysin/hemolysin (VCC) is a 65 kDa β-pore-forming toxin causing lysis and death of eukaryotic cells. Apart from the core cytolysin domain, VCC has two lectin domains with β-trefoil and β-prism folds. The β-prism domain binds to cell surface carbohydrate receptors; the role of the β-trefoil domain is unknown. Here, we show that the pro-VCC mutant without the β-trefoil domain f...

A 2-knot will be a 2-sphere embedded into R locally flatly. Although we cannot see a 2-knot directly with our eyes, there are several ways to visualize it. A motion picture is one of the ways. Roughly speaking, a motion picture is a CT scan (Computed Tomographic scan) of a 2-knot. It is a one-parameter family of slices of a 2-knot, that are 0or 1-dimensional objects in R. The n-twist-spun trefo...

human airway is generally destructed by inhaled factors and is the barrier to the external environment and has a crucial role in protection of the internal homeostasis of the lung. sulfur mustard (sm) is a chemical warfare that capable of producing severe chemical injuries primarily in the lungs. trefoil factor family (tffs) plays major roles in epithelial repair and homeostasis, particularly i...

PURPOSE. Postoperative subconjunctival wound healing remains the commonest cause of late bleb failure after glaucoma filtration surgery. This study was undertaken to investigate whether the human monoclonal antibody that neutralizes transforming growth factor2 (CAT-152; lerdelimumab) could be used as a postoperative agent to prevent scarring after glaucoma surgery and compared it with 5-fluorou...

pNR-2/pS2 is a 60 residue extracellular protein, which was originally discovered in human breast cancer cells, and subsequently found in other tumours and normal gastric epithelial cells. We have determined the three-dimensional solution structure of a C58S mutant of human pNR-2/pS2 using 639 distance and 137 torsion angle constraints obtained from analysis of multidimensional NMR spectra. A se...

This is an expository account of a theorem of Louise Moser that describes the types of manifolds that can be constructed via Dehn surgery along a trefoil in the 3-sphere. These include lens spaces, connected sums of two lens spaces, and certain Seifert fibered spaces with three exceptional fibers. Various concepts from the topological theory of three dimensional manifolds are developed as needed.

The Kiepert trefoil is an algebraic curve with remarkable geometric and number theoretic properties. Ludwig Kiepert, generalizing ideas due to Serret Liouville, determined that it could be parametrized by arc length in terms of elliptic functions. In this note, we observe some other properties the curve. particular, a special example buckled ring, thus solitary wave solution planar filament equ...
