On approximating curves associated with nonexpansive mappings

2011

Let X be a Banach space with metric d. Let T, N : X → X be a strict d-contraction and a d-nonexpansive map, respectively. In this paper we investigate the properties of the approximating curve associated with T and N. Moreover, following [3], we consider the approximating curve associated with a holomorphic map f : B → α B and a ρ-nonexpansive map M : B → B, where B is the open unit ball of a complex Hilbert space H, ρ is the hyperbolic metric defined on B and 0 ≤ α < 1. We give conditions on f and M for this curve to be injective, and we show that this curve is continuous.

Resting-State Functional Magnetic Resonance Imaging for Surgical Neuro-Oncology Planning: Towards a Standardization in Clinical Settings

2021

Resting-state functional magnetic resonance imaging (rest-f-MRI) is a neuroimaging technique that has demonstrated its potential in providing new insights into brain physiology. rest-f-MRI can provide useful information in pre-surgical mapping aimed to balancing long-term survival by maximizing the extent of resection of brain neoplasms, while preserving the patient’s functional connectivity. Rest-fMRI may replace or can be complementary to task-driven fMRI (t-fMRI), particularly in patients unable to cooperate with the task paradigm, such as children or sedated, paretic, aphasic patients. Although rest-fMRI is still under standardization, this technique has been demonstrated to be feasible…

A fixed point theorem for G-monotone multivalued mapping with application to nonlinear integral equations

2017

We extend notion and theorem of [21] to the case of a multivalued mapping defined on a metric space endowed with a finite number of graphs. We also construct an example to show the generality of our result over existing results. Finally, we give an application to nonlinear integral equations

Transcription in bacteriophage f1-infected Escherichia coli: RNA synthesized on DNA of deletion mutant PII shows the existence of a two-site terminat…

1984

Two different transcripts are synthesized on the DNA of deletion mutant PII of bacteriophage f1 in E. coli cells infected with this miniphage. Both RNA species appear to be primary transcripts and differ by about 100 nucleotides at their 3'OH end. Mapping of these molecules on the miniphage genome suggests that a two-site terminator is active at the end of the I region of transcription of bacteriophage f1.

Human cationic amino acid transporter gene hCAT-2 is assigned to 8p22 but is not the causative gene in lysinuric protein intolerance

1997

Lysinuric protein intolerance (LPI) is a recessively inherited amino acid disorder characterized by defective efflux of cationic amino acids at the basolateral membrane of the intestinal and renal tubular epithelium. Recently, cDNAs encoding the related proteins hCAT-2A and hCAT-2B have been cloned. These two carrier proteins are most likely the product of the same gene, hCAT-2. Using the hCAT-2B cDNA, we assigned the hCAT-2 gene to chromosome 8p22. Furthermore, by linkage analysis in Finnish LPI families, we ruled out that hCAT-2B is involved in LPI disease.

Polymerase chain reaction analysis of the Xba I polymorphism of the human complement C4 genes provides evidence for strong haplotype conservation.

1995

The genes coding for the two isotypes of the fourth component of human complement, C4A and C4B, are located between the HLA-B and -DR loci of the MHC. We studied the linkage relationship of the previously described XbaI RFLP to obtain further insight into the evolution of the tandemly arranged C4 genes. Using exon-specific PCR amplification followed by restriction analysis and direct DNA sequencing, the polymorphic site could be located in exon 40 of the C4 gene (cDNA position 5095). The polymorphism does not change an amino acid residue. Using nested PCR amplification with isotype-specific primers to amplify either C4A or C4B alleles the haplotype arrangement of the XbaI sites in both isot…

Human type I cytokeratin genes are a compact cluster

1997

A YAC clone (211F11) containing approximately 0.5 Mb of human DNA was isolated from a human genomic library by PCR-based screening with cytokeratin (KRT) 13-specific primers. The YAC clone was mapped by FISH to the long arm of chromosome 17 (17q12→q21), a region to which several other type I KRT genes had been mapped previously. We now show by Southern blot hybridization and PFGE analyses that KRT13, 14, 15, and 16 are all contained within YAC clone 211F11. Long-range restriction mapping analysis of clone 211F11 and of two smaller YAC clones that were also isolated with KRT13-specific primers, suggests that KRT13, 14, 15, 16 and their linked type I genes KRT17 and 19, are contained in less …

Sequence and evolution of the gene for the monomeric globin I and its linkage to genes coding for dimeric globins in the insect Chironomus thummi.

1995

We isolated genomic clones containing sequences encoding globins I and IA from a Chironomus thummi thummi genomic library. Three clones contain globin IA (ctt-1A) genes, while one contains a globin I (ctt-1) gene. The coding regions of the four genes are identical except for the single base substitution accounting for the globin I/IA polymorphism. The noncoding DNA flanking the coding region is more than 98% similar, confirming a previous hypothesis that the globin ctt-1 and ctt-1A genes are alleles. Hemoglobins I and IA are monomeric in the insect hemolymph. Earlier in situ hybridization studies suggested that monomeric and dimeric globin genes are clustered at different chromosomal loci. …

Genetic variability at neutral markers, quantitative trait loci and trait in a subdivided population under selection

2003

Abstract Genetic variability in a subdivided population under stabilizing and diversifying selection was investigated at three levels: neutral markers, QTL coding for a trait, and the trait itself. A quantitative model with additive effects was used to link genotypes to phenotypes. No physical linkage was introduced. Using an analytical approach, we compared the diversity within deme (HS) and the differentiation (FST) at the QTL with the genetic variance within deme (VW) and the differentiation (QST) for the trait. The difference between FST and QST was shown to depend on the relative amounts of covariance between QTL within and between demes. Simulations were used to study the effect of se…
