Ribonucleoprotein particles are central to numerous cellular pathways, but their study in vitro is often complicated by heterogeneity and aggregation. We describe a new technique to characterize these complexes trapped as homogeneous species in a nondenaturing gel. Using this technique, in conjunction with phosphorothioate footprinting analysis, we identify the proteinbinding site and RNA foldi...

The objective of this study was to evaluate inter-rater reliability of Braden Scale, Norton Scale and Waterlow Scale for pressure ulcer risk assessment in clinical practice. The design of the study was cross-sectional. A total of 23 patients at pressure ulcer risk were included in the study, and 6 best registered nurses conducted three subsequent risk assessments for all included patients. They...

The capacities of indole-3-acetic acid (IAA) and gibberellin A(3) (GA(3)) to counteract the inhibitory effects of (2-chloroethyl) trimethylammonium chloride (CCC), 2-isopropyl-4-dimethylamino-5-methylphenyl-1-piperidinecarboxylate methyl chloride (Amo-1618), and N,N-dimethylaminosuccinamic acid (B-995) on hypocotyl elongation in light-grown cucumber (Cucumis sativus L.) seedlings were investiga...

The human organic cation transporter 1 (OCT1) is a polyspecific transporter involved in the uptake of positively charged and neutral small molecules in the liver. To date, few endogenous compounds have been identified as OCT1 substrates; more importantly, the effect of drugs on endogenous substrate transport has not been examined. In this study, we established monoamine neurotransmitters as sub...

Global warming increases the risk of high-temperature injury to maize. Inter- and mixed-cropping maize varieties with different genotypes is one way effectively alleviate during flowering period. However, mitigation effect intercropping modes on still unclear. Based previous years field production, Denghai 605, which more sensitive high temperatures period, was determined as main test variety, ...
