Recently discovered genome-wide rare copy number variants (CNVs) have unprecedented
levels of statistical association with many developmental neuropsychiatric disorders, …

There is increasing interest in the bidirectional communication between the mammalian host
and prokaryotic cells. Catecholamines (CA), candidate molecules for such communication, …

Association of breast tumor susceptibility gene products BRCA1 and BRCA2 with the RAD51
recombination protein suggested that cancer could arise through defects in recombination. …

Most methanogenic archaea reduce CO 2 with H 2 to CH 4 . For the activation of H 2 , they
use different [NiFe]-hydrogenases, namely energy-converting [NiFe]-hydrogenases, …

Background There is increasing evidence suggesting the existence of an interaction between
commensal microbiota, the gut and the brain. The aim of this study was to examine the …

Charge storage characteristics have been investigated in metal-oxide-semiconductor memory
structures based on silicon nanocrystals, where various interface traps and defects were …

The extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) 1 and 2 are important signaling components
implicated in learning and memory. These isoforms display a high degree of sequence …

Random threshold voltage (V M ) fluctuation data obtained from multiple fabs, generations
and technologies, as well as theoretical / TCAD results are carefully compared using a special …

Signaling through extracellular signal-regulated kinase (ERK) is important in multiple signal
transduction networks in the CNS. However, the specific role of ERK2 in in vivo brain …

The quantum mechanical effects in silicon single-electron transistors have been investigated.
The devices have been fabricated in the form of point contact metal–oxide–semiconductor …
