This plan allows Federal agencies to make payments to the loan holder of up to a maximum of $10,000 for an employee in a calendar year and a total of not more than $60,000 for any one employee. It's important to note that an employee receiving this benefit must sign a service agree...
Expression of sex-chromosome genes were used as true internal biological controls to compare alternate probe-level data extraction algorithms (Microarray Suite 5.0 [MAS5.0], Model Based Expression Index [MBEI] and Robust Multi-array Average [RMA]), to assess microarray data quality and to establish...
Tetralogy of Fallot (ToF) is the main form of cyanotic CHDs (estimated incidence 5 per 10,000 live births), characterized by a conal septum malalignment which leads to aorta rightward deviation. This defect results in a large ventricular septal malformation and stenosis of the pulmonary valve ...
Equation 1 represents the general form of the predictor, which calculates the estimated microRNA expression index by averaging elements of the experimentally observed mRNA expression vector multiplied by a weight vector. The expression vector is created by a mapping function, which selects expression va...
However, there are those who evolve to the severe form of VL, with a high lethality rate [5]. In addition, relapse is also observed in medical practice [6, 7]. Clinical and laboratory markers such as age, bleeding, edema, jaundice, dyspnea, bacterial infection, HIV/AIDS co-infection, ...
AD is the most common neurodegenerative disease and the most prevalent form of dementia. The age-standardized prevalence of dementia for those aged ≥60 years varies only slightly across the globe (5–7%), and the prevalence is reported to double in about every 5 years. It has been estimated...
VviERF6Lgene expression in response to rapid dehydration CS leaves. Log2(RMA-normalized signal intensity+ 1) gene expression of threeVviERF6Lsin CS leaves treated with control (solid lines and circles), or detached and allowed to rapidly dehydrate under regulated conditions (dotted lines and ...
b. Heatmap of GhCIPK6a expression and genes co-expressed with GhCIPK6a in different tissues under salt stress. WT, the wild type line, 11-0516; OE2, the transgenic cotton. R, root tissue; S, stem tissue; L, leaf tissue Full size image CIPKs interact with CBLs and PP2Cs to form ...
Detection, signal condensation and normalisation were conducted using Robust Multichip Analysis (RMA) of the Refiner tool [20]. Further analysis of transcript abundance was conducted using the Analyst tool. The correlation of expression signals between replications for each genotype was 0–0.99 across...
(RMA) analysis of array data provided the most reliable comparisons, especially for weakly expressed genes. The studies yielded an over-abundance of transcriptional regulators in the identified genes, and these form a set of candidate genes for evaluation of roles in ovule development using reverse ...
