Mercury (Hg) is highly toxic and has the potential to cause severe health problems for humans and foraging animals when transported into edible plant parts. Soil rhizobia that form symbiosis with legumes may possess mechanisms to prevent heavy metal tran
]. Prokaryotes are the most widespread form of life, encompassing incredibly diverse taxa and encoding the vast majority of biological functions, playing crucial roles in changing, shaping, and sustaining habitability on Earth [5,6,7]. The extraordinary diversity of prokaryotes is believed to be a...
In Japan, MPC of the breast was added to the General Rules for Clinical and Pathological Recording of breast Cancer (16th Edition)(The Japanese Breast Cancer Society) as a special form of carcinoma [2]. It was reported that MPC cells had the combined characteristics of both epithelial cells ...
Poor light penetration could be a limitation to treat deep tumors in the field of research in PDT. A solution that has been related first by the Chen’s team (Chen and Zhang2006) in 2006 is the use of X-rays, instead of light, combined with NPs as a new PDT modality. Since this d...
In the past decade, there was a growing interest in 3-D reconstruction and realistic 3-D modelling of large-scale scenes such as urban structures. Applications of such models include virtual reality, cultural heritage, urban planning, and architecture. Commonly, these applications require a combinat...
[9,10]. Siboglinid Hbs consist of four heme-containing chains (A1, A2, B1, B2). Sulfur-binding capabilities are hypothesized to be dependent on free cysteine residues at key positions in Hbs, especially in the A2 and B2 chains [8]. V1 Hb can form persulfide groups on its four ...

The eukaryotic-bacterial symbiotic system plays an important role in various physiological, developmental, and evolutionary processes. However, our current understanding is largely limited to multicellular eukaryotes without adequate consideration of div
Ignoring the self-overlapping nature of the motif can also complicate the interpretation ofin vitroexperiments. For example, a 3' padding sequence, starting with nucleotide C, in a gel shift experiment can form a spurious strong κB site and thus confer higher binding affinity to the experimental...
The Global Fund has abandoned this conventional approach, in favour of a new form of sustainability that relies on a combination of domestic resources and predictable, open-ended foreign assistance. As the Global Fund proposal Form for the 2007 call for proposals notes: "Applicants are not require...
