A simplified scheme for piezoelectric anisotropic analysis in human vertebrae using integral methods
(Hindawi, 2018)
This paper outlines a computational model for the analysis of the piezoelectric behaviour of the vertebral body remodelling process. Particular attention is paid to the algorithms for the simulation of ...
Evolutionary footprints reveal insights into plant MicroRNA biogenesis
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous small RNAs that recognize target sequences by base complementarity and play a role in the regulation of target gene expression. They are processed from longer precursor ...
comTAR: a web tool for the prediction and characterization of conserved microRNA targets in plants
(Oxford University Press, 2014)
Motivation: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are major regulators of gene expression in plants and animals. They recognize their target messenger RNAs (mRNAs) by sequence complementarity and guide them to cleavage ...
Multiple RNA recognition patterns during microRNA biogenesis in plants
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory Press, 2013)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) derive from longer precursors with fold-back structures. While animal miRNA precursors have homogenous structures, plant precursors comprise a collection of fold-backs with variable ...
Spatial control of gene expression by miR319-regulated TCP transcription factors in leaf development
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
The characteristic leaf shapes we see in all plants are in good part the outcome of the combined action of several transcription factor networks that translate into cell division activity during the ...
Efficiency and precision of microRNA biogenesis modes in plants
(Oxford University Press, 2018)
Many evolutionarily conserved microRNAs (miRNAs) in plants regulate transcription factors with key functions in development. Hence, mutations in the core components of the miRNA biogenesis machinery ...
Identification of new microRNA-regulated genes by conserved targeting in plant species
(Oxford University Press, 2012)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are major regulators of gene expression in multicellular organisms. They recognize their targets by sequence complementarity and guide them to cleavage or translational arrest. It is ...
Effects of muscarinic receptor antagonism in the basolateral amygdala on two-way active avoidance
(Springer Nature, 2011)
The aim of the present study was to investigate whether the blockade of muscarinic receptors (mRs) in the basolateral amygdala (BLA), which receives important cholinergic inputs related to avoidance ...
Derivation of nearest-neighbor DNA parameters in magnesium from single molecule experiments
(Oxford University Press, 2017)
DNA hybridization is an essential molecular reaction in biology with many applications. The nearest-neighbor (NN) model for nucleic acids predicts DNA thermodynamics using energy values for the different ...
Counter-propagating dual-trap optical tweezers based on linear momentum conservation
(AIP Publishing, 2013)
We present a dual-trap optical tweezers setup which directly measures forces using linear momentum conservation. The setup uses a counter-propagating geometry, which allows momentum measurement on each ...
