Work-related stress is an important issue in any industry, particularly construction, which stressful environments are frequently encountered. "What the primary stressors construction workplace?" and relationships between strain effect of psychological distress countermeasures coping mechanisms used by workers?" are, therefore, critical questions. The first question was addressed using Q-methodology survey with 18 participants. results showed that time, personal finance nature tasks...

ABSTRACT The first bacterial N-linked glycosylation system was discovered in Campylobacter jejuni , and the key enzyme involved coupling of glycan to asparagine residues within acceptor sequon glycoprotein is oligosaccharyltransferase PglB. Emerging genome sequence data have revealed that pglB orthologues are present a subset species from Deltaproteobacteria Epsilonproteobacteria including three Helicobacter species: H. pullorum canadensis winghamensis . In contrast C. which single gene...

ABSTRACT The Gram-negative bacterium Campylobacter jejuni encodes an extensively characterized N-linked protein glycosylation system that modifies many surface proteins with a heptasaccharide glycan. In C. , the genes encode enzymes required for glycan biosynthesis and transfer to are located at single pgl gene locus. Similar loci also present in genome sequences of all other species, although variations content organization evident. this study, we have demonstrated only species closely...

Abstract N-linked protein glycosylation systems operate in species from all three domains of life. The model bacterial system Campylobacter jejuni is encoded by pgl genes present at a single chromosomal locus. This gene cluster includes the pglB oligosaccharyltransferase responsible for transfer glycan lipid carrier to protein. Although genomes genus contain locus, among related Helicobacter only evolutionarily (H. pullorum, H. canadensis and winghamensis) potentially encode systems....

We determined the genome sequence of type strain Helicobacter canadensis, an emerging human pathogen with diverse animal reservoirs. Potential virulence determinants carried by include systems for N-linked glycosylation and capsular export. A protein-based phylogenetic analysis places H. canadensis close to Wolinella succinogenes.

Helicobacter canadensis is an emerging human pathogen and zoonotic agent. The genome of H. was sequenced previously determined to contain 29 annotated coding regions associated with homopolymeric tracts. Twenty-one the repeat-associated were be potentially transcriptionally or translationally phase variable. In each case tract within predicted promoter region at 5' end region, respectively. However, eight sequences identified simple sequence repeats toward 3' open reading frame. these cases,...

The roles of the three ORFs HP0208, HP0159 and HP1416 in biosynthesis Helicobacter pylori 26695 LPS were investigated this study. These represent a paralogous family genes with homology to Salmonella enterica serovar Typhimurium (hereafter referred as S. typhimurium) waaJ gene, which encodes an α-1,2-glycosyltransferase required for core biosynthesis. HP0208 contains multiple tandem repeats dimer 5′GA at its 5′ end expression is predicted be subject phase variation. number present ORF was...

Small businesses are critical to community recovery from disasters. However, factors that affect outcomes (such as planning, information needs, and responses warnings) understudied. To address the research record's focus on policy favours disaster mitigation rather than response, this project applied a two-phased, mixed-method approach. The first study comprised interviews with elucidate planning approaches, knowledge current warning system adequacy. It revealed opportunities build add...

Background and Objective: Construction industry workers have high levels of stress suicide rates compared to other industries.Support mechanisms like social capital support help protect against distress, however, these networks are unexplored in the construction management literature.The objective this research was determine if a network approach can be used understand differences exist and/or with without distress.Materials Methods: Psychological distress measured using sample 14 site-based...
