Field studies on the regulation of abscisic acid content and germinability during grain development of barley: molecular and chemical analysis of pre-harvest sprouting (2006)

To investigate whether the regulation of abscisic acid (ABA) content was related to germinability during grain development, two cDNAs for 9-cis-epoxycarotenoid dioxygenase (HvNCED1 and HvNCED2) and one cDNA for ABA 8'-hydroxylase (HvCYP707A1), which are enzymes thought to catalyse key regulatory steps in ABA biosynthesis and catabolism, respectively, were cloned from barley (Hordeum vulgare L.). Expression and ABA-quantification analysis in embryo revealed that HvNCED2 is responsible for a significant increase in ABA levels during the early to middle stages of grain development, and HvCYP707A1 is responsible for a rapid decrease in ABA level thereafter. The change in the embryonic ABA content of imbibing grains following dormancy release is likely to reflect changes in the expression patterns of HvNCEDs and HvCYP707A1. A major change between dormant and after-ripened grains occurred in HvCYP707A1; the increased expression of HvCYP707A1 in response to imbibition, followed by a rapid ABA decrease and a high germination percentage, was observed in the after-ripened grains, but not in the dormant grains. Under field conditions, HvNCED2 showed the same expression level and pattern during grain development in 2002, 2003, and 2004, indicating that HvNCED2 expression is regulated in a growth-dependent manner in the grains. By contrast, HvNCED1 and HvCYP707A1 showed a different expression pattern in each year, indicating that the expression of these genes is affected by environmental conditions during grain development. The varied expression levels of these genes during grain development and imbibition, which would have effects on the activity of ABA biosynthesis and catabolism, might be reflected, in part, in the germinability in field-grown barley.
<i>BRCA1/2</i> Mutation Status Impact on Autophagy and Immune Response: Unheralded Target (2020)

BRCA1 and possibly BRCA2 proteins may relate to the regulation of autophagy. Autophagy plays a key role in immune response from both a tumor and immune effector cell standpoint. In cells with <i>BRCA</i> mutations, increased autophagy leads to elevated expression of major histocompatibility complex class II but may cause subclonal neoantigen presentation, which may impair the immune response related to clonal neoantigen visibility. We review evidence of BRCA1/2 regulation of autophagy, immune response, and antigen presentation.
Origin recognition and the chromosome cycle (2004)

Prior to the initiation of DNA replication, chromosomes must establish a biochemical mark that permits the recruitment in S phase of the DNA replication machinery that copies DNA. The process of chromosome replication in eukaryotes also must be coordinated with segregation of the duplicated chromosomes to daughter cells during mitosis. Protein complexes that utilize ATP coordinate events at origins of DNA replication and later they participate in the initiation of DNA replication. In eukaryotes, some of these proteins also play a part in later processes that ensure accurate inheritance of chromosomes in mitosis, including spindle attachment of chromosomes, accurate duplication of centrosomes and cytokinesis. A perspective of how ATP-dependent proteins accomplish this task in eukaryotes is discussed.
A Study of Budget Deficits and Interest Rates for Japan: Evidence from an Extended Loanable Funds Model (2011)

This paper examines the behavior of the long-term interest rate in Japan based on a sample during 1972Q1-2010.Q3. Applying to the extended open economy loanable funds model, this paper finds that a higher government deficit as a percent of GDP leads to a lower long-term interest rate in Japan. In addition, the real money market rate, the GDP growth rate, the expected inflation rate, the world long-term interest rate, and the expected depreciation of the yen have positive effects on the Japan's long-term interest rate. Finally, inclusion of the world interest rate and the exchange rate in the model may better capture the behavior of the long-term interest rate in Japan.

In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> as a promising catalyst for CO<sub>2</sub> utilization: A case study with reverse water gas shift over In<sub>2</sub>O<sub>3</sub> (2014)

Abstract In 2 O 3 was prepared by using thermal decomposition of indium (III) nitrate hydrate at 300 °C for 3 h. The obtained crystals show a rectangular shape with highly porous morphology. The length of the rectangular In 2 O 3 is ranged from 40 to 80 nm with an average pore diameter of ca. 3.4 nm. Such prepared In 2 O 3 catalyst shows an obviously higher activity for reverse water gas shift (RWGS) than Ga 2 O 3 obtained at the same decomposition temperature. The result is in good agreement with the theoretical prediction, which shows that adsorbed CO 2 on In 2 O 3 surface is more highly activated than that on the Ga 2 O 3 surface. The present work confirms that In 2 O 3 is a promising catalyst for not only RWGS but also other CO 2 conversion reactions.
A facile alternative technique for large-area graphene transfer via sacrificial polymer (2017)

A novel method of transferring large-area graphene sheets onto a variety of substrates using Formvar (polyvinyl formal) is presented. Due to the ease at which formvar can be dissolved in chloroform this method allows for a consistent, a clean, and a more rapid transfer than other techniques including the PMMA assisted one. This novel transfer method is demonstrated by transferring large-area graphene onto a range of substrates including commercial TEM grids, silicon dioxide and glass. Raman spectroscopy was used to confirm the presence of graphene and characterize the morphological properties of the large-area sheets. SEM and AFM analyses demonstrated the effectiveness of our rapid transfer technique for clean crystalline large-area graphene sheets. The removal of the sacrificial polymer was found to be one to two orders of magnitude faster than PMMA methods. Ultimately this facile transfer technique offers new opportunities for a wide range of applications for large-area graphene through the utilization of a new sacrificial polymer.
Analysis of Jβ gene segment usage by CD4<sup>+</sup> and CD8<sup>+</sup> human peripheral blood T lymphocytes (1992)

Certain T cell antigen receptor V gene products in man have been shown by us and others to display a reproducible bias for preferential expression in CD4+ or CD8+ T cell subsets. In order to investigate whether such a skewed representation of V gene segments is also present at the J gene segment level, we tested the relative J beta gene usage by V beta 5.1 + T cells, as this V beta gene is biased towards CD4+ T cell expression in virtually all individuals. To analyze the usage of the 13 J beta gene segments, we developed a new approach using V beta 5.1 and C beta specific oligonucleotides as 5' and 3' primers respectively for polymerase chain reaction (PCR) amplification of cDNA derived from CD4+ or CD8+ peripheral blood lymphocyte (PBL) T cells. The PCR products were visualized for reactivity with individual J beta 1.1-1.6 and J beta 2.1-2.7 32P-labelled oligonucleotide probes using autoradiography and quantitative gel-scanning. Eleven normal blood donors provided the PBL T cells. The results showed that in every individual's V beta 5.1+ T cell populations (CD4 and CD8), all V beta/J beta combinations were used although at varying but reproducible levels for each J beta gene. Thus, no discernible disallowance of combinations existed. Moreover, we could show that six of 13 J beta genes were unequally expressed when compared in pairs with regard to expression in CD4+ and CD8+ T cell subsets.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
Considerations of coupling selection, installation and alignment: effects on motor mechanical performance (2002)

70% to 80% of motor field problems are mechanical in nature. A significant proportion of these mechanical problems can be attributed to bearing problems which arise when external loads are exerted on bearings not designed to accommodate any extraneous loading. When a motor is intended to be used in a direct connected mode, it is assumed that the only loads which the motor bearings have to support are the motor's rotor weight, one-half the coupling weight, and possibly some internally unbalanced magnetic forces. Unfortunately, if misaligned, it is possible for the couplings to exert a sustained combination of axial, radial, angular load on the motor bearings, with a subsequent reduction in motor bearing life, or in extreme cases, failure.
Towards Automatic Diabetes Case Detection and ABCS Protocol Compliance Assessment (2012)

The presented approach accurately identified diabetes in medical discharge summaries and showed promise with regards to assessment of protocol compliance and high risk factors.

Layer-by-layer fully printed Zn-MnO<sub>2</sub>batteries with improved internal resistance and cycle life (2015)

This research created direct layer-by-layer printed zinc-based secondary batteries with an ionic liquid-based gel polymer electrolyte to power micro- and meso-scale devices. The use of a gel polymer electrolyte composed of [BMIM][Otf] ionic liquid, ZnOtf salt, and PVDF-HFP polymer binder enabled direct layer-by-layer printing of functional cells. The effects of additive printing methods on cell discharge capacity, cycle life, and internal resistance are discussed. Fully printed cells have demonstrated average discharge capacities of 0.548 mAh/cm2, energy densities of 8.20 mWh/cm3, and specific energies of 2.46 mWh/g with some cells achieving over 1000 cycles without catastrophic failure. Layer-by-layer printed devices exhibited decreased DC internal resistance and longer cycle life over previous mechanically assembled cells.
Fiber-Coupled Light-Emitting Diode With a Capillary-Bonded Hemispherical Lens (2011)

A hemispherical lens capillary-bonded to an InGaN flip-chip light-emitting diode (LED) is demonstrated to efficiently couple light to a plastic optical fiber. The BK-7 hemispherical lens is bonded onto a circularly shaped LED chip with inclined sidewalls cut by laser-micromachining, so that lateral emissions are effectively suppressed. Capillary bonding minimizes air-gap between chip and lens enabling transmission of evanescent waves, thus maximizing overall optical transmission. With the lens attached, emission divergence from the assembly is significantly reduced, diverting rays into the acceptance cone of the fiber. Fiber coupling efficiency as high as 53.8% has been demonstrated.

Orthogonal Relation Transforms with Graph Context Modeling for Knowledge Graph Embedding (2019)

Translational distance-based knowledge graph embedding has shown progressive improvements on the link prediction task, from TransE to the latest state-of-the-art RotatE. However, N-1, 1-N and N-N predictions still remain challenging. In this work, we propose a novel translational distance-based approach for knowledge graph link prediction. The proposed method includes two-folds, first we extend the RotatE from 2D complex domain to high dimension space with orthogonal transforms to model relations for better modeling capacity. Second, the graph context is explicitly modeled via two directed context representations. These context representations are used as part of the distance scoring function to measure the plausibility of the triples during training and inference. The proposed approach effectively improves prediction accuracy on the difficult N-1, 1-N and N-N cases for knowledge graph link prediction task. The experimental results show that it achieves better performance on two benchmark data sets compared to the baseline RotatE, especially on data set (FB15k-237) with many high in-degree connection nodes.
Four Distinct Membrane-bound Dipeptidase RNAs Are Differentially Expressed and Show Discordant Regulation with γ-Glutamyl Transpeptidase (1996)

Membrane-bound dipeptidase (MBD) participates in the degradation of glutathione by cleaving the cysteinyl-glycine bond of cystinyl bisglycine (oxidized cysteinyl-glycine) following removal of a gamma-glutamyl group by gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT). In the mouse, MBD RNA is most abundant in small intestine, kidney, and lung and is represented by four distinct RNA species. These are generated by transcription from two promoters located 6 kilobases apart in the 5' flanking region of the gene and by the use of two different poly(A) addition sites. Promoter I is used primarily in small intestine and kidney, whereas promoter II is most active in lung and kidney. We found a discordance in the expected co-expression of MBD and GGT; as expected, MBD and GGT are both expressed at high levels in the kidney and small intestine. However, in the lung, MBD is expressed at high levels, whereas GGT is almost undetectable. The reverse is true in the seminal vesicles and fetal liver. Thus, although both enzymes may function in concert to metabolize glutathione in kidney and small intestine, in other tissues they appear to act independently, suggesting that they have independent roles in other biological processes.
A 1.7mW All Digital Phase-Locked Loop with New Gain Generator and Low Power DCO (2006)

In this paper, a new architecture and algorithm for all digital phase-locked loop (ADPLL) is proposed. By using the new search algorithm, it can accomplish phase lock process within 18 input clock cycles. By using the new architecture, we can combine the functions of the frequency comparator, phase detector and gain generator in one hard block. Also, a new digitally controlled oscillator (DCO) structure for low power, small area is presented and its frequency range is from 200 MHz to 750 MHz with a supply voltage 1.2v. The total power consumption of ADPLL is 1.7mW. This ADPLL has characteristics of fast frequency locking, small hard cost and lower power consumption. This ADPLL is designed and implemented by TSMC's 0.13/spl mu/m CMOS technology.
Experimental Quantum Key Distribution at 1.3 Gbit/s Secret-Key Rate over a 10-dB-Loss Channel (2017)

Quantum key distribution (QKD) enables unconditionally secure communication ensured by the laws of physics, opening a promising route to security infrastructure for the coming age of quantum computers. QKD's demonstrated secret-key rates (SKRs), however, fall far short of the gigabit-per-second rates of classical communication, hindering QKD's widespread deployment. QKD's low SKRs are largely due to existing single-photon-based protocols' vulnerability to channel loss. Floodlight QKD (FL-QKD) boosts SKR by transmitting many photons per encoding, while offering security against collective attacks. Here, we report an FL-QKD experiment operating at a 1.3 Gbit/s SKR over a 10-dB-loss channel. To the best of our knowledge, this is the first QKD demonstration that achieves a gigabit-per-second-class SKR, representing a critical advance toward high-rate QKD at metropolitan-area distances.
Synthesis and Characterization of Magnetic Iron Sulfide Nanowires (2003)

Large quantities of Fe 1– x S ( x = 0.12 and 0.1–0.08) nanowires (see Figure) have been prepared by the thermal decomposition of a hybrid precursor, Fe 1– x S(en) 0.5 ( x = 0.2–0.3, en = ethylenediamine). Removal of the amine from Fe 1– x S(en) 0.5 at 200 and 300 °C under Ar flow yields Fe 7 S 8 and Fe 1– x S ( x ≈ 0.09) nanowires, respectively, with well‐defined morphologies. The Fe 7 S 8 nanowires are ferrimagnetic at room temperature.
Quickly Removal of Arsenic from Aqueous Systems with the Fe/MnO<sub>2</sub> Nano-Flowers (2012)

Fe/MnO2 was prepared from hydrothermal procedure, and its properties for removal of arsenic from aqueous solution were investigated. The samples were characterized with XRD, SEM and FTIR. SEM images revealed the Fe/MnO2 was dispersing flower-like sphere with the diameter of 500-800 nm and the width of petal was of 20-30 nm. Sorption of the arsenic to Fe/MnO2 reached equilibrium in less than 180 s, which was the much faster than that of pure MnO2 and amorphous iron manganese binary oxide. The adsorption isotherm was agreed well to the Freundlich adsorption model with maximum adsorption capacities of 26.5 mg/g. The Fe/MnO2 was able to remove 100% of arsenic in water at pH 4.0, and this adsorbent was stable in solution with low pH. The Fe/MnO2 nano-flowers are a potential high efficient nanomaterial for removal of arsenic from water.
R.F.L. Safety Kit for Domestic LPG (2019)

Home fires have been taking place frequently and the threat to human lives and properties has grown in recent years. Liquefied Petroleum Gas (LPG) is extremely combustible and may burn even at a long way from the supply of escape. Most fire accidents are caused because of a poor-quality rubber tube or the regulator is not turned off when not in use. Therefore, developing the system which includes gas leakage alert, fire alarm, refill reminder is very essential. Hence, this paper presents a gas leakage alert system to detect the gas leakage, Fire alarm in case of fire, Automated ventilation in case of gas leakage and to alarm the people onboard and automated refill SMS generation. The Abbreviations in the title represents functionality of the kit: R-Refill Reminder, F-Fire Alert, L-Leakage

Capillary electrophoresis-based immunoassays (2000)

This review covers the progress and developments in the field of capillary electrophoresis immunoassay (CEIA) over the past three years. Because many excellent descriptions of the principles of these methods are available (e.g., in the reviews listed in this article), no elementary introduction is given to the field of immunoassays (IAs) or CEIAs. This report focuses exclusively on experimental results, dividing the CEIA papers into the categories of direct, indirect, and microchip electrophoretic immunoassays. In the last section, a brief summary of the current status of the CEIA field is presented.
Generating Mind Map from Indonesian Text Using Natural Language Processing Tools (2013)

People usually make mind map by drawing each object and its relation with other object from scratch. This research aims to make the process easier by generating mind map from text (here is Indonesian text) and providing mind map editor to manipulate the object and relation set. To build such tool, we employ available Indonesian NLP (Natural Language Processing) tools. There are three components needed: semantic net generator, mind map visualization and interaction handler. In the semantic net generator, the resulted first order logic (FOL) resulted by the semantic analyzer is changed into semantic net which is represented by list of objects and list of relations. The resulted semantic net is then visualized by using combination method of radial and layering drawing. The interaction is available for editing the object and the relation. The tool was then evaluated by 2 experiment set: testing the semantic net generation and testing the resulted visualization. The semantic net generation was evaluated by using the valid input text, while the visualization was evaluated by user acceptance test. As the result, although the semantic net generation (from FOL) is a correct one, but the whole semantic analyzer for Indonesian text still has a low accuracy especially for complex sentence. As for the user acceptance test, the automatic generation still gives unimportant object which should be corrected by the interaction.
New Privacy Threat on 3G, 4G, and Upcoming 5G AKA Protocols (2019)

Abstract Mobile communications are used by more than two-thirds of the world population who expect security and privacy guarantees. The 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) responsible for the worldwide standardization of mobile communication has designed and mandated the use of the AKA protocol to protect the subscribers’ mobile services. Even though privacy was a requirement, numerous subscriber location attacks have been demonstrated against AKA, some of which have been fixed or mitigated in the enhanced AKA protocol designed for 5G. In this paper, we reveal a new privacy attack against all variants of the AKA protocol, including 5G AKA, that breaches subscriber privacy more severely than known location privacy attacks do. Our attack exploits a new logical vulnerability we uncovered that would require dedicated fixes. We demonstrate the practical feasibility of our attack using low cost and widely available setups. Finally we conduct a security analysis of the vulnerability and discuss countermeasures to remedy our attack.
