Golden Gate Assembly is a powerful synthetic biology tool, which utilizes Type IIS enzymes for unidirectional assembly of multiple DNA fragments. The simplicity of its DNA assembly and the exchangeability of standard parts greatly facilitate the generation of combinatorial assembly libraries. Currently there are two popular Golden Gate Assembly frameworks that allow multigene augmentation (MoCl...

Research suggests that religious individuals are more prejudiced against sexual minorities (Herek, 1987). However, the Golden Rule, a universal concept embedded in many religions, emphasizes the importance of treating others with compassion. The present study examined how priming the Golden Rule influenced Buddhists‟ and Christians‟ attitudes toward gay people. We primed participants with Golde...

BACKGROUND The maxillary anterior teeth are important in achieving pleasing dental aesthetics. Various methods are used to measure the size and form of them, including the golden proportion between their perceived widths, and the width-to-height ratio, referred to as the golden standard. The purpose of this study was conducted to evaluate whether consistent relationships exist between tooth wid...

OBJECTIVE In recent years, the golden proportions have been evaluated by various researchers in the general population and orthodontic patients to establish their correlation with facial attractiveness and esthetics, but with conflicting results. The present study aimed to analyze the frontal facial golden proportions for three groups of young adult females, an attractive group, and two maloccl...

The Golden Section is proposed to be the preferred ratio in many domains. Starting with Fechner, there were several empirical studies concerning the preference of the Golden Section with inconclusive results. Our main concern is that the Golden Section can neither perceived no produced exactly since it is an irrational number. Therefore, we propose to give a closer look to preferences for ratio...

The interaction between nanoparticles and biomolecules such as protein andDNA is one of the major instructions of nanobiotechnology research. In this study,we have explored the interaction of adenine nucleic base with a representativegolden cluster (Au13) by using dispersion corrected density functional theory(DFT-D3) within GGA-PBE model of theory. Various active sites ...

a comparative study of the corresponding styles of western and iranian modern architecture has hardly ever been carried out in detail. this paper aims to sketch out an outline for such an investigation and to present a summary of empirical evidence accompanied by field observations to elaborate the ongoing trend of relationship between architectural styles in iran and that of the west. this is ...

In this paper we describe the application of the Golden Ratio to three-dimensional facial scans. The Golden Ratio is believed to be a blueprint for facial features that conform to beauty. Faces are scanned using the Minolta VI-700 range data scanner. The acquired 3D meshes are viewed and manipulated using 3DS Max and MAXScript. A Golden Mask, constructed based on the Golden Ratio is used to ind...

INTRODUCTION In orthodontics, facial esthetics is assumed to be related to golden proportions apparent in the ideal human face. The aim of the study was to analyze the putative relationship between facial esthetics and golden proportions in white adolescents. METHODS Seventy-six adult laypeople evaluated sets of photographs of 64 adolescents on a visual analog scale (VAS) from 0 to 100. The f...

Aim. The purpose of this study was to investigate the relationship between upper limbs' three functional partitions and the golden curve. Materials and Methods. We measured 30 subjects' right or left upper limb data and investigate the relationship between them and the golden curve by use of SPSS version 20.0 statistical software (SPSS, Inc., Chicago, Illinois), one-sample t-test. Results. Ther...
