Drosophila genes Posterior Sex Combs and Suppressor two of zeste encode proteins with homology to the murine bmi-1 oncogene. 总被引:23,自引:0,他引:23
The Polycomb group (Pc-G) genes are needed to maintain expression patterns of the homeotic selector genes of the Antennapedia (Antp-C) and bithorax (bx-C) complexes, and hence for the maintenance of segmental determination. We report the predicted protein sequence of the Pc-G gene Posterior Sex Combs (Psc), and of the neighbouring and related gene Suppressor two of zeste (Su(z)2). Both genes encode large proteins that contain a 200 amino-acid domain identical over 37.4% that is also conserved in the murine oncogene bmi-1. At the amino terminus of this domain is a cysteine-rich sequence that has been proposed as a novel type of zinc finger. 相似文献

The iterative reconstruction algorithms for X-ray CT image reconstruction suffer from their high computational cost.Recently Nvidia releases common unified device architecture(CUDA),allowing developers to access to the processing power of Nvidia graphical processing units(GPUs),in order to perform general purpose computations.The use of the GPU,as an alternative computation platform,allows decreasing processing times,for parallel algorithms.This paper aims to demonstrate the feasibility of such an implement... 相似文献

Vitamin-B12 is a generic term for corrinoid compounds that exhibit the biological activity of cyanocobalamin and are collectively referred
to as cobalamins. Methylcobalamin and 5-deoxyadenosylcobalamin are the active cobalamins in human metabolism. Cobalamin plays
a crucial role in the maintenance of homocysteine and methylmalonyl-CoA homeostasis and is required for erythrocyte formation
and DNA synthesis. Data from human and animal studies indicate that cobalamin deficiency impairs neuronal function; a process
that is thought to contribute to age-related cognitive decline and dementia. Cobalamin deficiency also results in dysfunction
of the peripheral nervous system; among other disorders. Although there is a detailed understanding of the biochemical pathways
that are perturbed in cobalamin deficiency, the mechanisms underlying age-related dyshomeostasis in such pathways remain to
be addressed. Because cobalamin utilization is dependent on its efficient transit through lysosomes, and mounting evidence
indicates that lysosomal function deteriorates in aging long-lived post-mitotic cells such as neurons, in the present article
we review published data that supports the proposition that impaired lysosomal processing of cobalamin may play a significant
role in age-related (neuro) degenerative diseases. 相似文献

Silicone coatings have been used in this study. The method adopted was the liquid drop analysis on the coated fabrics. The contact angle between a liquid drop and the fabric surface was measured with two liquids continuously and recorded by a computer. The surface energy was calculated by means of Owens method. Kinetic measurement was adopted. The contact angle of liquids on the fabric coated silicone decreased with time was found. A compound solution DX has been found, so that the contact angle of the liquids on the fabric washed with DX becomes constant, and the surface energy of the fabric can be reduced to below 15 mJ/m2. 相似文献

Neuromelanin and lipofuscin are two pigments produced within the human brain that, until recently, were considered inert cellular waste products of little interest to neuroscience. Recent research has increased our understanding of the nature and interactions of these pigments with their cellular environment and suggests that these pigments may, indeed, influence cellular function. The physical appearance and distribution of the pigments within the human brain differ, but both accumulate in the aging brain and the pigments share some structural features. Lipofuscin accumulation has been implicated in postmitotic cell aging, while neuromelanin is suggested to function as an iron-regulatory molecule with possible protective functions within the cells which produce this pigment. This review presents comparative aspects of the biology of neuromelanin and lipofuscin, as well as a discussion of their hypothesized functions in brain and their possible roles in aging and neurodegenerative disease. 相似文献
