Translation is an essential genetic process for understanding the mechanism of gene expression. Due to the large number of protein sequences generated in the post-genomic era, conventional methods are unable to identify Translation Initiation Site (TIS) in human genes timely and accurately. It is thus highly desirable to develop an automatic and accurate computational model for identification of T

The topic of this article is experiences regarding Supplemental Instruction (SI) at two Scandinavian Universities. The purpose is to describe the basis for and implementation of SI programmes at the two universities, and to compare their similarities and differences. Our research questions were as follow: What were the reasons and background for implementing SI? How was the SI programme founded, p

Biodeterioration challenges range from poor indoor air quality and exterior marble defacing to more dangerous building degradation. People often change the look of degraded walls by painting over them, removing carpets as well as replacing damaged wood and papers to improve their aesthetic value. Due to a lack of public awareness and health care infrastructure, the degradation rate is increasing i

The Swedish regional climate modelling programme, SWECLIM, started in 1997 with the main goal being to produce regional climate change scenarios over the Nordic area on a time scale of 50 to 100 yr. An additional goal is to produce water resources scenarios with a focus on hydropower production, dam safety, water supply and environmental aspects of water resources. The scenarios are produced by a

This report deals with the identification of ATP/ADP translocase genes. In rickettsial species such as Rickettsia prowazekii, which is the cause of epidemic typhus in humans, the utilisation of host cell ATP is the major way that this bacterium employ its toxicity in the host cell. This obligate intracellular bacterium is an energy-parasite. In the genome of R. prowazekii there are five homologs o

Objective: The European Society for Vascular Surgery (ESVS) has developed clinical practice guidelines for thecare of patients with diseases of the mesenteric and renal arteries and veins, in succession to the first 2017guidelines, with the aim of assisting physicians and patients in selecting the best management strategy.Methods: These guidelines are based on scientific evidence and expert opinio

The reaction of [Os3H2(CO)10] with Me3SiC2C2SiMe3 affords both [Os3(μ-H) (CO)10{μ-η1-η2-HC 2(SiMe3)C2(SiMe3)}] (1) and [Os3(μ-CO)(CO)9(μ3-η 2-Me3SiC2C2SiMe3)] (2) in good yield, 2 being favoured with an excess of diyne. In 1, one edge of the triosmium unit is bridged by the vinyl moiety of a transformed bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,4-butadiyne ligand that has undergone a hydride transfer and a 1,2-trimet
