Overcoming barriers to renewable energy diffusion: business models for customer-sited solar photovoltaics in Japan, Germany and the United States

Identification of Tyr-762 in the platelet-derived growth factor alpha-receptor as the binding site for Crk proteins

Site-controlled Ge quantum dot growth on Si by the use of electron beam pre-patterning

By growth of Si on substrates that have been pre-patterned by electron-beam induced carbon nano-growth masks, nano-holes form at the Si surface. We have grown self-assembled Ge quantum dots in these holes by ultra high vacuum chemical vapour phase deposition (UHV-CVD). We usually find four dots in each hole. By varying the amount of deposited Ge, we can obtain either four dome-shaped or four pyram

Impact of aspirin, NSAIDs, warfarin, corticosteroids and SSRIs on the site and outcome of non-variceal upper and lower gastrointestinal bleeding.

Heterogeneous Nuclear Ribonucleoprotein A1 (hnRNP A1) and hnRNP A2 Inhibit Splicing to Human Papillomavirus 16 Splice Site SA409 through a UAG-Containing Sequence in the E7 Coding Region

A novel function for CDK2 activity at meiotic crossover sites

Severe retinal degeneration at an early age in Usher syndrome type 1B associated with homozygous splice site mutations in MYO7A gene

Association between a polymorphism affecting an AP1 binding site in the promoter of the TCIRG1 gene and bone mass in women

The TCIRG1 gene encodes a component of the osteoclast vacuolar proton pump and previous work has shown that inactivating mutations of the TCIRG1 cause autosomal recessive osteopetrosis. In order to determine whether allelic variation in TCIRG1 contributes to the regulation of bone mineral density (BMD) in normal individuals, we studied the relationship between polymorphisms of TCIRG1 and BMD in a

Haemophilus Protein F Orthologs of Pathogens Infecting the Airways : Exploiting Host Laminin at Heparin-Binding Sites for Maximal Adherence to Epithelial Cells

Haemophilus influenzae protein F (PF) is an important virulence factor interacting with laminin, an extracellular matrix protein ubiquitously expressed in the respiratory tract. Here we defined PF orthologs in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Moraxella catarrhalis, and Staphylococcus aureus, bacteria that occasionally colonize and infect the human airways. Despite low sequence homology (48.2%-77.3% similar

A New Process-Based Soil Methane Scheme : Evaluation Over Arctic Field Sites With the ISBA Land Surface Model

Permafrost soils and arctic wetlands methane emissions represent an important challenge for modeling the future climate. Here we present a process-based model designed to correctly represent the main thermal, hydrological, and biogeochemical processes related to these emissions for general land surface modeling. We propose a new multilayer soil carbon and gas module within the Interaction Soil-Bio

Hippocampus and basal ganglia as potential sentinel sites for ischemic pathology after resuscitated cardiac arrest

Aims of the study: Neurological impairment after resuscitated cardiac arrest (CA) remains a significant unmet medical need. Brain ischemia associated with CA and subsequent reperfusion is evident as two fundamentally different types of damage on neuropathological examination: frank necrosis (involving all cell types) and selective eosinophilic neuronal death (SEND). These types of damage are not o
