(PLoS ONE, 2015)In this work we studied the liver transcriptomes of two frog species, the American bullfrog (Rana (Lithobates) catesbeiana) and the African clawed frog (Xenopus laevis). We used high throughput RNA sequencing (RNA-seq) ...
-
(Molecular Ecology, 2018)Ranaviruses are responsible for a lethal, emerging infectious disease in amphibians and threaten their populations throughout the world. Despite this, little is known about how amphibian populations respond to ranaviral ...
-
(Scientific Reports, 2019)Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) exhibit broad-spectrum antimicrobial activity, and have promise as new therapeutic agents. While the adult North American bullfrog (Rana [Lithobates] catesbeiana) is a prolific source of ...
-
(PLoS ONE, 2019)The coastal tailed frog (Ascaphus truei) is endemic to the Pacific Northwest of North America and is listed as a species of Special Concern under the Canadian Species at Risk Act. Its range is limited to British Columbia ...
-
(BMC Research Notes, 2019)Objective: The RNA exosome is an evolutionarily conserved 3′–5′ exoribonucleolytic protein complex involved in processing and degradation of different classes of nuclear and cytoplasmic RNAs, and, therefore, important for ...
-
(PLoS ONE, 2016)Environmental stewardship requires timely, accurate information related to the status of a given ecosystem and the species that occupy it. Recent advances in the application of the highly sensitive real-time quantitative ...
-
Gold nanoparticle uptake in synchronized cell populations and the effect on radiation sensitization (2019-04-16)To overcome the challenge in radiation therapy of delivering the prescribed dose to cancer cells while sparing normal tissue, preferential introduction of high Z material to tumour cells works as a method of radiation ...
-
(2019-04-10)We improved two beamforming-based methodologies for seismological analysis. The first one is a new Three-Dimensional Phase-Weighted Relative Back Projection (3-D PWBP) method to improve the spatial resolution of Back ...
-
(2019-04-05)Marine diatoms are the dominant primary producers in coastal and shelf regions, and contribute to about 20% of the annual photosynthesis on Earth. Diatoms also exert a major control on the marine silicon (Si) cycle through ...
-
(Physical Review D, 2017)An extended Higgs sector may allow for new scalar particles well below the weak scale. In this work, we present a detailed study of a light scalar S with enhanced coupling to leptons, which could be responsible for the ...
-
(Proceedings of the American Mathematical Society, 2017)For the simple Bratteli diagrams B where there is a single edge connecting any two vertices in consecutive levels, we show that a random order has uncountably many infinite paths if and only if the growth rate of the leveln ...
-
Probing the Microenvironments in a Polymer-Wrapped Core−Shell Nanoassembly Using Pyrene Chromophores (ACS Omega, 2018)The local environments within an amphiphilic polymer shell wrapped around lanthanide-doped upconverting nanoparticles were probed using steady-state and time-resolved fluorescence spectroscopy techniques. Emission lifetime ...
-
(Advances in Difference Equations, 2018)In this paper, we solve a system of fractional differential equations within a fractional derivative involving the Mittag-Leffler kernel by using the spectral methods. We apply the Chebyshev polynomials as a base and ...
-
(Journal of Inequalitites and Applications, 2019)In this work, we introduce certain subclasses of analytic functions involving the integral operators that generalize the class of uniformly starlike, convex, and close-to-convex functions with respect to symmetric points. ...
-
(Physics Letters B, 2019)We observed a distinct peak in the Ap invariant mass spectrum of 3 He(K −, Ap)n, well below mK 2mp , i.e., the mass threshold of the K − to be bound to two protons. By selecting a relatively large momentum- transfer region ...
-
(Physics Letters B, 2019)Small violation of Lorentz and CPT symmetries may emerge in models unifying gravity with other forces of nature. Anextension of the standard model with all possible terms that violate Lorentz and CPT symmetries are included. ...
-
(Mathematics, 2019)The aim of this paper is to solve a class of non-linear fractional variational problems (NLFVPs) using the Ritz method and to perform a comparative study on the choice of different polynomials in the method. The Ritz method ...
-
(Symmetry, 2019)We construct Stancu-type Bernstein operators based on Bézier bases with shape parameter λ∈[−1,1] and calculate their moments. The uniform convergence of the operator and global approximation result by means of Ditzian-Totik ...
-
(Symmetry, 2019-03)The main purpose of this article is to find the upper bound of the third Hankel determinant for a family of q-starlike functions which are associated with the Ruscheweyh-type q-derivative operator. The work is motivated ...
-
(2019-03-26)Automation plays an integral role in our daily lives. From transportation to agriculture, we rely on robots and programs to assist in accomplishing tasks. Chemistry is no except with the deployment of high throughput ...
