Color visualization of the DNA diverse living beings can help in exploration issue chromatic differentiation functional mappings nucleotide composition molecules. By “chromatic differentiation”, we mean coloring these mappings. Algorithms for genetic representations improve perception complex information using color. Methodologically, to build DNA, employed system Walsh functions and Chaos Game...

Photosynthesis occurs in mesophyll cells of specialized organs such as leaves. The rigid cell wall encapsulating photosynthetic cells controls the expansion and distribution of cells within photosynthetic tissues. The relationship between photosynthesis and plant growth is affected by leaf area. However, the underlying genetic mechanisms affecting carbon partitioning to different aspects of lea...

The impact of the Mongol invasions of the Middle East has been the subject of extensive research, especially in the last few decades. Scholars have evaluated the damage and the benefits brought by the Mongols to the Islamic world in different fields such as the military, religion, politics, economy and culture. Despite this, in the case of Anatolia, the Mongol period is still under-studied when...

Field programmable gate arrays (FPGAs) are integrated circuits (ICs) designed to implement, or be programmed with, any user circuit. This unique ability makes FPGA extremely popular; however, it also introduces a significant amount of area and delay overhead to the circuit. Fortunately, FPGA are typically manufactured in a process that is two to three generations ahead of the one used by applic...

Cultivar variation in seed characteristics can affect seedling vigor, and nitrogen (N) availability influences early-season growth some instances. However, interactions between cultivar N application rate for have received limited attention. Thus, the objectives of this research were to quantify effects cultivar, N-application rate, their interaction on growth, predict vigor from plant morpholo...

Glucocorticoids exert rapid nongenomic effects by several mechanisms including the activation of a membrane-bound glucocorticoid receptor (mGR). Here, we report the first proteomic study on the effects of mGR activation by BSA-conjugated cortisol (Cort-BSA). A subset of target proteins in the proteomic data set was validated by Western blot and we found them responding to mGR activation by BSA-...

Equine chorionic gonadotropin (eCG) is a unique molecule that elicits the response characteristics of both follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) and luteinizing hormone (LH) in other species. Previous studies from this laboratory had demonstrated that recombinant eCG (rec-eCG) from Chinese hamster ovary (CHO-K1) cells exhibited both FSH- and LH-like activity in rat granulosa and Leydig cells. In t...

Protein-energy wasting (PEW) is common in hemodialysis (HD) patients. A recent study demonstrated that a high level of N-terminal pro-B-type natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) may be associated with PEW in those patients. This prospective study aimed to assess the association of NT-proBNP with body composition and muscle loss. A cohort of prevalent HD patients (n = 238) was examined. Blood samples...
