CsrA is a global posttranscriptional regulator of numerous physiological processes, such as glycogenesis and glycolysis. Here, we show that the csrA gene of Escherichia coli is essential for growth on LB and on synthetic medium containing glycolytic carbon sources. However, csrA is not necessary for growth on synthetic medium containing pyruvate, showing that the Krebs cycle is functional in th...

SETH4 coding sequence with 2013 bp is a member of gene family expressed in gametophytic tissues of Arabidopsis thaliana. This fragment was PCR amplified using Kod Hi Fi DNA polymerase enzyme. This fragment was cloned into pGBKT7 bate vector and transformed E. coli DH5? cells containing vector were selected on LB medium containing Kanamycin. Finally, pGBKT7-SETH4 bate was transformed into yeast ...

Late blowing in Swiss cheese, a result of unwanted gas production during ripening, isunacceptable to consumers, and causes economic loss to manufacturers. Cheese processorshave raised concerns that feeding dried distillers’ grains with soluble (DDGS) to cows leadsto this defect, in part, because of Clostridial spores. In this study, the effect of feeding DDGSto lactating dairy c...

We study stochastic optimization problems when the data is sparse, which is in a sensedual to the current understanding of high-dimensional statistical learning and optimization.We highlight both the difficulties—in terms of increased sample complexity that sparse datanecessitates—and the potential benefits, in terms of allowing parallelism and asynchrony in thedesign of alg...

Objectives: This study aimed at designing and assessing educational materials for adult immunizations through the medium of comics. The study design evaluated the effects of two vaccine information flyers (a CDC flyer vs a flyer designed in Comic medium) on participants’ attitude towards the flyers. Methods: A between-group, randomized trial was used to compare the effectiveness of two vaccine ...

Minimum inhibitory concentrations (MICs) against E. coli were measured for three nylon-3 polymers using Luria-Bertani broth (LB), brain-heart infusion broth (BHI), and a chemically defined complete medium (EZRDM). The polymers differ in the ratio of hydrophobic to cationic subunits. The cationic homopolymer is inert against E. coli in BHI and LB, but becomes highly potent in EZRDM. A mixed hydr...

The emerging wireless media delivery services haveplaced greater demands for wireless networks to support high-throughput applications while minimizing the delay of individualpackets. In this paper, we investigate using inter-session networkcoding to send packets wirelessly for two deadline-constrainedunicast sessions. Specifically, each unicast session aims to transmita...

In addition, Epsilon automatically o ers diagnostic information in case of erroneous design steps (a frequently occurring situation), which has proven a valuable feature in the subsequent debugging. The theoretical basis for the generation of diagnostic information is obtained through logical characterizations of the various re nements corresponding to the well kn...
