Human β1,6-N-acetylglucosaminyltransferase V (GnT-V) was expressed by baculovirus-insect cell system, and the purified recombinant enzyme kinetically characterized. The data obtained were used to establish kinetic basis of substrate specificity toward donor nucleotide sugars, also revealed that Km values for donors are much higher compared those other GlcNAc transferases, properties which have been reported. Because this exceptionally suggests GnT-V is physiologically present at far from...
The Y‐7308 howardite comprises a variety of lithic clasts and mineral fragments. Mg/(Mg+Fe) atomic ratios the pyroxenes in diogenitic clasts, eucritic Fayalite‐Hedenbergite‐Tridymite‐Plagioclase vary continuously from 0.76 to less than 0.30. Olivine fragments matrix have wide range 0.88 0.71. This continuum chemical compositions for olivine pyroxene is explained by fractional crystallization primary magma. composition liquid produced removing magma almost identical that eucrites,...
Abstract— Chondrules in the Bali‐like CV chondrite Kaba and Allende‐like portion of Mokoia breccia have been studied to explore relationship between hydrous alteration form phyllosilicates anhydrous resulting secondary olivine zonation, replacement enstatite by ferroan formation feldspathoids (nepheline sodalite). All chondrules experienced extensive alteration; whereas, was minor resulted only zonation. On other hand, all both alteration. Bronzite rims formed relic grains during...
Gitelman's syndrome is a variant of Bartter's syndrome, characterized by hypokalemia, hypomagnesemia, hypocalciuria, and hypovolemia. We have observed familial cases possible mutation in thiazide-sensitive Na-Cl cotransporter was investigated this kindred. The proband 47-yr-old Japanese female, her mother also affected. Her parents maternal grandparents are consanguineous. By using PCR-amplification direct sequencing, we identified novel non-conservative missense at 623 amino acid position,...
Abstract— We petrologically examined the Miller Range (MIL) 03346 nakhlite. The main‐phase modal abundances are 67.7 vol% augite, 0.8 olivine, and 31.5 mesostasis. Among all known nakhlites, MIL 03346's abundance of olivine is smallest mesostasis largest. Augite occurs as cumulus phenocrysts having a homogeneous core composition (En 36–38 Fs 24–22 Wo 40 ), which identical with other nakhlites. They accompany thin ferroan rims divided into inner outer compositional gap at boundary between two...
Human serum paraoxonase (PON1) is associated with high-density lipoprotein, and inhibits oxidative modification of low-density lipoprotein. Therefore, PON1 supposed to contribute the prevention atherosclerosis. We other investigators have shown that enzymatic activities concentrations were decreased in maintenance hemodialysis (HD) patients. However, effect status on long-term outcome HD patients has not been reported. In this study, we examined association between baseline PON 1...
The effects of dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO) and dimethylthiourea (DMTU) deferoxamine (DFO) were investigated in cats during a standard cortical freezing method for the production vasogenic brain oedema. Hydroxyl radical scavenging activity was studied by electron spin resonance assay using DMPO as trap. hydroxyl adduct extinguished DFO large dose DMTU. Evans blue dye extravasation reduced DMSO treated groups well. appears to be an effective agent prevention cold induced DMTU are direct...
The baculovirus–insect cell expression system is in widespread use for expressing post-translationally modified proteins. As a result, it potentially applicable the production of glycoproteins therapeutic and diagnostic purposes. For practical use, however, remodeling biosynthetic pathway host-cell N-glycosylation required because insect cells produce paucimannosidic glycoforms, which are different from typical mammalian glycoform, due to trimming non-reducing terminal β1,2-GlcNAc residue...

An X-band monolithic-microwave integrated-circuit (MMIC) power amplifier with a simplified on-chip temperature-compensation circuit composed of few diodes and resistor are presented in this paper. At first, the operation principle design method have been investigated. The fabricated four-stage MMIC has demonstrated improvement gain variation from 5.5 to 1.3 dB temperature range -10/spl deg/C +80/spl deg/C.
Bilirubin (Bil) is the end product of heme catabolism. The production Bil reflects oxygenase-1 expression in response to oxidative stress various diseases. To assess role as a marker cases brain damage, we measured serum concentrations patients with hemorrhagic stroke. Serum levels total were 20 subarachnoid hemorrhage symptomatic vasospasms and 23 intracerebral hemorrhage; every day for 14 consecutive days. significantly elevated early phases both groups. Moreover, transient elevation was...
Abstract— The Yamato nakhlites, Y-000593, Y-000749, and Y-000802, were recovered in 2000 from the bare icefield around mountains Antarctica, consisting of three independent specimens with black fusion crusts. They are paired cumulate clinopyroxenites. We obtained intercumulus melt composition nakhlites here call it (YIM). YIM crystallized to form augite rims, olivine rims mesostasis phases cumulates. consist two layers: inner outer. crystallization rim drove interstitial into plagioclase...
