We present FORTE, a profile-profile comparison tool for protein fold recognition. Users can submit a protein sequence to explore the possibilities of structural similarity existing in known structures. Results are reported via email in the form of pairwise alignments.

The Los Alamos National Laboratory/Sandia National Laboratory FORTE satellite is described and its capabilities for global remote sensing of lightning in the radio regime are described. Some results from 7 years of successful operation are presented. A future global lightning monitoring mission, VGLASS, is described.

We discuss the determination of polarized parton distributions from a NLO analysis of recent experimental data. We extract the first moment of the polarized quark and gluon distribution and assess the corresponding uncertainties, with special regard to those related to scheme dependence. Talk given at DIS96, Rome, April 1996 to be published in the proceedings

Introduction: Glass ionomer cement (GIC) is a restorative material used in pediatric dentistry, which attaches to dental hard tissues and has cariostatic properties due to the ability for fluoride release. The present study aimed to assess the fluoride release and uptake capacity of two GICs in the presence of various fluoride sources. Methods: This in-vitro study was conducted on 120 disks com...
