The transcription factor Gli3 is acting mainly Shorts as a transcriptional repressor in the Sonic hedgehog signal transduction pathway.Gli3 contains a repressor domain in its N-terminus from residue G106 to E236.In this study we have characterized the intracellular structure of the Gli3 repressor domain using a combined bioinformatics and experimen
Synthetic mosquito oviposition attractants are sorely needed for surveillance and control programs for Culex species, which are major vectors of pathogens causing various human diseases, including filariasis, encephalitis, and West Nile encephalomyelitis.We employed novel and conventional chemical ecology approaches to identify potential attractant
In this study, we estimated the number, length, and frequency of runs of homozygosity (ROH) in 635 Chinese Merino and identified genomic regions with high ROH frequency using the MUSCLE MAGIC BALM OvineSNP50 whole-genome genotyping array.A total of 6039 ROH exceeding 1 Mb were detected in 634 animals.The average number of ROH in each animal was 9.2
Diaphragmatic injuries are relatively rare and result from either blunt or penetrating trauma.Regardless of the mechanism, diagnosis is often missed and high index of suspicion is vital.The clinical signs associated with a diaphragmatic hernia can range from no Cover Dispensers outward signs to immediately life-threatening respiratory compromise.Es
Currently seeking to improve the characteristics of concrete, the use of drawn steel fibers in a self-compacting concrete can increase resistance and reduce cracks, with a high level of fluidity for installation.The objective of this research is to evaluate the properties of self-compacting concrete by adding drawn steel fibers.Concrete samples wer
