MICRODISSECTION AND DOP-PCR-BASED REVERSE CHROMOSOME PAINTING AS A FAST AND RELIABLE STRATEGY IN THE ANALYSIS OF VARIOUS STRUCTURAL CHROMOSOME ABNORM…
1996
Reverse chromosome painting has become a powerful tool in clinical genetics for the characterization of cytogenetically unclassifiable aberrations. In this report, the application of a sensitive and rapid procedure for the complete and precise identification of four different de novo structural chromosome abnormalities is presented. These chromosome rearrangements include a marker derived from chromosome 3(cen-q11), an interstitial deletion of chromosome 13 [del(13)(q14q22)], an unbalanced translocation [46,XY, -4, +der(4)t(4;8)(p 15.2;p21.1)] leading to Wolf-Hirschhorn syndrome, and a partial inverted duplication in conjunction with a partial deletion of chromosome 5p [46,XX, -5, +der(5)(:…
Cs[Ag4Zn2(SCN)9].
2002
Caesium tetrasilver dizinc nonathiocyanate, Cs[Ag4Zn2(SCN)9], forms a continuous structure, where the Ag atoms and the S atoms of the thiocyanate groups form chains which run along [101]. These chains are bonded together through the Cs and Zn atoms. It is not possible to distinguish between space groups P1 and P\overline 1, but, if the latter space group is correct, the structure contains a thiocyanate group disordered across a centre of inversion. The structure is described in space group P\overline 1, in which the Cs atom also lies on a centre of inversion.
Growth phase-dependent regulation of nuoA-N expression in Escherichia coli K-12 by the Fis protein: upstream binding sites and bioenergetic significa…
2000
The expression of the nuoA-N operon of Escherichia coli K-12, which encodes the proton-pumping NADH dehydrogenase I is modulated by growth phase-dependent regulation. Under respiratory growth conditions, expression was stimulated in early exponential, and to a lesser extent in late exponential and stationary growth phases. The stimulation in the early exponential growth phase was not observed in fis mutants, which are deficient for the growth phase-responsive regulator Fis. Neither the alternative sigma factor RpoS nor the integration host factor (IHF) are involved in growth phase-dependent regulation of this operon. When incubated with nuo promoter DNA, isolated Fis protein formed three re…
Propiedad rural y propiedad urbana. Reflexiones sobre las preferencias inversoras de los rentistas valencianos del siglo XVIII y otras causas
1987
Es ya un hecho conocido que, durante el siglo XVIII, buena parte de los rentistas valencianos, laicos y eclesiásticos, cambian sus objetivos de inversión y con ello sus fuentes de ingresos: de un crédito a gran escala que entra en crisis a la propiedad inmueble. Gran cantidad de haciendas, mayores y menores, se vieron así reconvertidas. El fenómeno ha llamado la atención, sobre todo, en sus efectos sobre la distribución social de la propiedad de la tierra, analizándose siempre desde una perspectiva agraria. Es algo bien lógico: con seguridad, la tierra absorbió la mayor parte de la inversión inmobiliaria. Simplemente pretendemos ahora ir un poco más allá, sosteniendo como hipótesis que tamb…
Electromagnetic and ultrasonic investigations on a Roman marble slab
2011
The archaeological museum of Rome asked our group about the physical consistency of a marble slab (second to third century AD) that recently fell during its travel as part of an exhibition. We decided to use different methodologies to investigate the slab: namely a pacometer (Protovale Elcometer) to individuate the internal coupling pins, and ground-penetrating radar (GPR) (2000 MHz) and ultrasonic (55 kHz) tomographic high-density surveys to investigate the internal extension of all the visible fractures and to search for the hidden ones. For the ultrasonic data, tests were carried out to optimize the inversion parameters, in particular the cell dimensions. Surely, the choice of cell size …
Tripotential data processing for HES interpretation
1994
In this paper some methods are proposed and compared to correct the experimental measurements for preliminary processing of tripotential data which are acquired for HES prospecting. However, the use of those methods should be based upon an accurate analysis of all experimental data. Such an analysis ought to involve: 1) an estimate of the averaged measurement errors with their variance and distribution in both the space and the three apparent-resistivities domains; 2) the choice of a resistivity model capable of describing the actual volume under study. The differences among the three values of apparent resistivity measured on a point are generally influenced both by the resistivity distrib…
How Hox genes can shed light on the place of echinoderms among the deuterostomes.
2014
19 pages; International audience; BACKGROUND: The Hox gene cluster ranks among the greatest of biological discoveries of the past 30 years. Morphogenetic patterning genes are remarkable for the systems they regulate during major ontogenetic events, and for their expressions of molecular, temporal, and spatial colinearity. Recent descriptions of exceptions to these colinearities are suggesting deep phylogenetic signal that can be used to explore origins of entire deuterostome phyla. Among the most enigmatic of these deuterostomes in terms of unique body patterning are the echinoderms. However, there remains no overall synthesis of the correlation between this signal and the variations observ…
Combined proton NMR wideline and NMR relaxometry to study SOM-water interactions of cation-treated soils
2013
Abstract Focusing on the idea that multivalent cations affect SOM matrix and surface, we treated peat and soil samples by solutions of NaCl, CaCl2 or AlCl3. Water binding was characterized with low field 1H-NMR-relaxometry (20 MHz) and 1H wideline NMR spectroscopy (400 MHz) and compared to contact angles. From 1H wideline, we distinguished mobile water and water involved in water molecule bridges (WaMB). Large part of cation bridges (CaB) between SOM functional groups are associated with WaMB. Unexpectedly, 1H NMRrelaxometry relaxation rates suggest that cross-linking in the Al-containing peat is not stronger than that by Ca. The relation between percentage of mobile water and WaMB water in…
El acontecimiento de la inversión dialéctica
2020
La metafísica de Žižek es hegeliana, por encima de todo, porque entiende la inversión dialéctica como el núcleo real de la realidad. Por ello, para comprender su pensamiento es necesario aclarar su manera de entender esta inversión, esto es, el encuentro que, según Hegel, tiene lugar entre “sustancia” y “sujeto” y, en general, entre los extremos de las oposiciones que estructuran la realidad. Para Žižek lo propio de la posición hegeliana es localizar este encuentro en la falta de coincidencia de cada opuesto consigo mismo. La íntima inconsistencia de cada posición o identidad, su propia negatividad, constituye lo más originario de ellas y, a la vez, lo que las vincula a su otro en la forma …
Deep fluid transfer evidenced by surface deformation during the 2014–2015 unrest at Piton de la Fournaise volcano
2016
International audience; Identifying the onset of volcano unrest and providing an unequivocal identification of volcano reawakening remain challenging problems in volcanology. At Piton de la Fournaise, renewal of eruptive activity in 2014–2015, after 41 months of quiescence and deflation, was associated with long-term continuous edifice inflation measured by GNSS. Inflation started on June 9, 2014, and its rate progressively increased through 2015. Inflation onset was rapidly followed by an eruption on June 20–21, 2014, showing that volcano reactivation can be extremely fast, even after long non-eruptive phases. This short-lived eruption involved a shallow source (1.3–1.9 km depth below the …
