BACKGROUND The ubiquitous bacterial trans-translation is one of the most studied quality control mechanisms. Trans-translation requires two specific factors, a small RNA SsrA (tmRNA) and a protein co-factor SmpB, to promote the release of ribosomes stalled on defective mRNAs and to add a specific tag sequence to aberrant polypeptides to direct them to degradation pathways. Helicobacter pylori i...

For tasks that need to be accomplished in unconstrained environments, as in the case of Urban Search and Rescue (USAR), human-robot collaboration is considered as an indispensable component. Collaboration is based on accurate models of robot and human perception consistent with one another, so that exchange of information critical to the accomplishment of a task is performed efficiently and in ...

This paper describes the 5dpo-2000 team. The paper will be divided into three main sections, corresponding to three main blocks: the Global Level, the Local Level and the Interface Level. These Levels, their subsystems and some implementation details will be described next.

The flow of genetic information from the chromosome to protein in all living organisms consists two steps: (1) copying coded DNA into an mRNA intermediate via transcription by RNA polymerase, followed (2) translation this a polypeptide ribosome. Unlike eukaryotes, where and are separated nuclear envelope, bacterial cells, these processes occur within same compartment. This means that pioneering...

introduction: bioterrorism is a worldwide problem and has been the focus of attention during recent decades. there is no precise information on the knowledge, attitude, and preparedness of iranian red crescent volunteers in dealing with bioterrorism. therefore, the present study aimed to evaluate the above-mentioned parameters in mahabad red crescent society volunteers. methods: in this prospec...

The RoboCupRescue Robot League made several important strides this year toward fielding advanced robotic technologies to support emergency responders performing urban search and rescue missions. Many of the twenty-six teams hosted in Osaka demonstrated capabilities built upon specific successes of previous year’s implementations, and continued to push the state-of-the-art of small robots operat...
