The amino acid sequences of the lambda chains of two mouse immunoglobulins have been determined. No variations were found between these proteins. The results are compatible with earlier fingerprinting analysis of the two chains, where no differences in the tryptic peptides could be demonstrated. The lack of sequence variations could be the result either of a peculiarly restricted expression of ...

BACKGROUND The human leukocyte antigen (HLA)-restricted cytotoxic T-lymphocyte (CTL) immune response is one of the major factors determining the genetic diversity of human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). There are few population-based analyses of the amino acid variations associated with the host HLA type and their clinical relevance for the Asian population. Here, we identified HLA-associated po...

A condition is derived for the hydraulic criticality of a 2-layer flow with transverse variations in both layer velocities and thicknesses. The condition can be expressed in terms of a generalized composite Froude number. The derivation can be extended in order to obtain a critical condition for an N-layer system. The results apply to inviscid flows subject to the usual hydraulic approximation ...

stable crystalline phosphorus ylides are obtained in excellent yields from the 1:1:1 addition reactionbetween hydantoins or thiohydantoins and dialkyl acetylenedicarboxylates in the presence oftriphenylphosphine. these phosphoranes undergo smooth intramolecular wittig reaction followedby an electrocyclic ring opening to produce dialkyl (e)-2-(2,5-dihydro-5,5-diaryl-2-thioxo-1h-imidazol-4-yl)fum...

conclusions considering that neuronal function highly depends on environmental conditions, any adverse alteration may affect the function and morphology of neurons. in this regard, our results showed the adverse effects of protein malnutrition on the morphology of the purkinje cells of cerebellum. results the low-protein group did not gain weight as much as control group (p < 0.05). the diamete...

This paper deals with techniques to detect abrupt scene transitions when random brightness variations (flicker) are present. This is normally the case when trying to restore or index old films. The application of conventional techniques in this situation tends to produce a large number of false positive detections of cuts. The paper is intendedly restricted to techniques which require low compu...

We describe several families of Lagrangian submanifolds in the complex Euclidean space which are H-minimal, i.e. critical points of the volume functional restricted to Hamiltonian variations. We make use of various constructions involving planar, spherical and hyperbolic curves, as well as Legendrian submanifolds of the odd-dimensional unit sphere.
