A pivotal role of tyrosine threonine kinase (TTK) has been established in tumor initiation, survival of genomically unstable and aneuploid cancer cells. In present study, path pendeccentric connectivity indices reported in part 1 of the manuscript were successfully applied for developing models...

The behavior of disease-linked mutations of membrane proteins is especially simple in rhodopsin, where they are well-studied, as they are responsible for retinitis pigmentosa, RP (retinal degeneration). Here we show that the frequency of occurrence of single RP mutations is strongly influenced...

Anisotropic surfaces with micropillar- or micropillar/nanobump structures and anisotropic wetting behavior were fabricated. Structures were arranged as three parallel zones where the structure of the middle zone differed from that of the edge zones. The widths of the middle zones were increased...

New Zealand pastoral soils have the potential to develop water-repellent conditions irrespective of regional climate and soil orders. The aim of this study was to improve the understanding of the temporal dynamics of soil water repellency (SWR), the mechanisms leading to this transient soil...

Pelletization of torrefied sawdust from a fluidized bed reactor was investigated to quantify the energy consumption and pellet properties, including moisture adsorption, pellet density and Meyer hardness. Energy consumptions in compaction and extrusion for torrefied sawdust were significantly...

Understanding the complex organization of genomes as well as predicting the location of genes and the possible structure of the gene products are some of the most important problems in current molecular biology. Many statistical techniques are used to address these issues. A central role among...
