Cytolytic leukotoxins of the repeat in toxin (RTX) family are large proteins excreted by gram-negative bacterial pathogens through the type 1 secretion system (T1SS).Due to low yields and poor stability in cultures of the original pathogens, it is useful to purify recombinant fatty-acylated RTX cytolysins from inclusion bodies produced in E.coli.Su
In helping consumers to make a wise decision in purchasing a personal computer (PC), the use of multi-criteria decision analysis methods is a way to provide ranking of the attributes of PCs and to construct the computer preference Can Sleeve index (CPI).This paper employs the Rank Ordered Centroid (ROC) method to do the ranking.The findings reveal
Abstract Background MicroRNA (miRNA) expression is known to be deregulated in ovarian carcinomas.However, limited data is available about the miRNA expression pattern for the benign or borderline ovarian tumors as well as differential miRNA expression pattern associated with histological types, grades or clinical stages in ovarian carcinomas.We def
In this paper, we concentrate on a comparison of plant and animal-parasitic nematodes, to gain insight into the factors that influence the acquisition of the drug resistance by nematodes.Comparing nematode parasite of domestic animals and cultivated plants, it appears that drug resistance threatens only domestic animal production.Does the paucity o
The model-based flight control system design for a highly flexible flutter demonstrator, developed in the European FLEXOP project, is presented.The flight control system includes a baseline controller to operate the aircraft fully autonomously and a flutter suppression controller to stabilize the unstable aeroelastic modes and extend the aircraft&r
