In Table 2, the sequence information for the Nichols and Mexico A strains at nucleotide position 2,388 of the tp92 gene was inadvertently switched. The correct sequence at this position is as follows: a deletion in Mexico A and an A in Nichols. Please see the corrected Table 2 here. The incorrect information in Table 2 was used to create the phylogenetic tree in Figure 2. Please see the correct...

Recent evidence identified multiple Henipavirus species in Africa distinct from those in Southeast Asia and Australia. The reported fusion glycoprotein (F) sequence of the African Gh-M74a strain (GhV-F) is likely incorrect: a single base pair deletion near the N terminus results in multiple aberrancies. Rectifying this by adding single nucleotide insertions results in a GhV-F that now possesses...

 Background: Spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is the second most common lethal autosomal recessive disease. It is a neuromuscular disorder caused by degenerative of lower motor neurons and occasionally bulbar neurons leading to progressive limb paralysis and muscular atrophy. The SMN1 gene is recognized as a SMA causing gene while NAIP has been characterized as a modifying factor for the clinical ...

In this paper we present the rst parallel minimumdistance error{correcting parser for context{free languages. The error correction is performed considering three kinds of syntax errors: the mutation of a symbol in another incorrect symbol, the insertion of an extraneous symbol and the deletion of a symbol. Our algorithm has the same parallel complexity of other well{known non{correcting context...

background: antibiotics can be life saving if they are used correctly, and can have unwanted side effects specially resistance with incorrect use. unfortunately in fear of no response, physicians use broad spectrum antibiotics meticulously. in this drug utilization evaluation (due), improper use of vancomycin and five broad-spectrum antibiotics are studied to find faults and solution for this p...

duchenne muscular dystrophy (dmd) and the milder allelic becker muscular dystrophy (bmd) are x-linked disorders. both dmd & bmd result from heterogenous mutation in the dystrophin gene and in about 65% of the cases one or more exons of the gene are deleted or duplicated. one third of cases arise from new mutation and the rest are familial. to analyze the prevalence of deletion in iranian patien...
