Expression of a 130 kDa protein from open reading frame 1 of the integrated form of the R2 mitochondrial plasmid in normal mitochondria of B37 and other inbred lines is described. The protein appears identical to that synthesized by the closely related S2 episome found in cytoplasmic male sterile maize of the S type. Protein was detected using antisera raised against a beta-galactosidase:ORF1 f...

In this paper we study the fusion frame potential, that is a generalization of the BenedettoFickus (vectorial) frame potential to the finite-dimensional fusion frame setting. The structure of local and global minimizers of this potential is studied, when we restrict the frame potential to suitable sets of fusion frames. These minimizers are related to tight fusion frames as in the classical vec...

Spectral tetris is a flexible and elementary method to derive unit norm frames with a given frame operator having all of its eigenvalues ≥ 2. One important application of this method is to construct fusion frames. We will give necessary and sufficient conditions for a spectral tetris construction to give a fusion frame with prescribed eigenvalues for its fusion frame operator and with prescribe...

In this paper we study the fusion frame potential, that is a generalization of the BenedettoFickus (vectorial) frame potential to the finite-dimensional fusion frame setting. Local and global minimizers of this potential are studied, when we restrict it to a suitable set of fusion frames. These minimizers are related to tight fusion frames as in the classical vector frame case. Still, tight fus...

background: sequence variations in glycoproteins of influenza virus surface impel us to design new candidate vaccines yearly. ectodomain of influenza m2 protein is a surface and highly conserved protein. m2e in influenza vaccines may eliminate the need for changing vaccine formulation every year. objectives: in this study, a recombinant baculovirus containing m2e and cholera toxin subunit b fus...

In this paper, we study approximate duals of $g$-frames and fusion frames in Hilbert $C^ast-$modules. We get some relations between approximate duals of $g$-frames and biorthogonal Bessel sequences, and using these relations, some results for approximate duals of modular Riesz bases and fusion frames are obtained. Moreover, we generalize the concept of $Q-$approximate duality of $g$-frames and ...

Qualitative Process theory provides a formal representation for human-like models of continuous processes. However, qualitative reasoning systems frequently rely on hand-made models which inhibits expansion into new domains. A representation that unifies QP theory with natural language expressions would allow these systems to expand their models by reading and interaction, thus greatly increasi...

Let $L$ be a completely regular frame and $mathcal{R}L$ be the ring of continuous real-valued functions on $L$. We study the frame $mathfrak{O}(Min(mathcal{R}L))$ of minimal prime ideals of $mathcal{R}L$ in relation to $beta L$. For $Iinbeta L$, denote by $textit{textbf{O}}^I$ the ideal ${alphainmathcal{R}Lmidcozalphain I}$ of $mathcal{R}L$. We show that sending $I$ to the set of minimal prime ...
