A three dimensional model of the basic Helix-Loop-Helix motif and its sequence specific recognition of DNA is described. The basic-helix I is modeled as a continuous ?-helix because no ?-helix breaking residue is found between the basic region and the first helix. When the basic region of the two peptide monomers are aligned in the successive major groove of the cognate DNA, the hydrophobi...

In this paper, we define X-slant helix in Euclidean 3-space and we obtain helix, slant helix, clad and g-clad helix as special case of the X-slant helix. Then we study Darboux, tangential darboux developable surfaces and their singular points. Especially we show that the striction lines of these surfaces are singular locus of the surfaces.

t. ikawa obtained an ordinary differential equation for the circular helix. recently, the helix havebeen investigated by many differential geometers such as t. ikawa, h. balgetir, m. bektas, m. ergut, n.ekmekci and h. h. hacısalihoglu. in this paper, making use of this author’s methods, we obtainedcharacterizations of helix for a curve with respect to the frenet frame in 3-dimensional galilean ...

hedera helix  is widely used to treat bronchial asthma for many years. however, effects of this herb on lung histopathology is still far from clear. we aimed to determine the effect of oral administration of hedera helix on lung histopathology in a murine model of chronic asthma. balb/c  mice  were  divided  into  four  groups;   i  (placebo),  ii  (hedera  helix), iii (dexamethasone) and iv (c...

In this work, we use the formal definition of $k$-slant helix cite{ali2} to obtain the intrinsic equations as well as the position vector for emph{slant-slant helices} which a generalization of emph{general helices} and emph{slant helices}. Also, we present some characterizations theorems for $k$-slant helices and derived, in general form, the intrinsic equations for such curves. Thereafter, fr...

Introduction: Hedera helix is an evergreen plant used in treatment of wounds in the Iranian folk medicine. One of the main stages in wound healing process is, the proliferative phase in which fibroblasts proliferate within the wounds and produce extracellular matrix. Collagen is the main constituent of extracellular matrix. So the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Hedera helix alc...
