acids with mitochondrial transition peptide (position 1-13). The mature protein has a theoretical pI of 8.44. The inner membrane of mitochondrial houses two AAA proteases and these membrane-embedded peptidases were termed m- and i-AAA proteases to indicate their different topology in the inner membrane. The m-AAA protease is facing the matrix and the i-AAA protease is facing the intermembrane space. OMA1 was shown to share an overlapping proteolytic activity with m-AAA protease. However, OMA1 doesn't completely regulate the turnover of a model substrate, Oxa1, as what the m-AAA protease does. On the contrary, Oma1 only generates N- and C-terminal proteolytic

A longer menstrual cycle length is also significantly associated with better ovarian response to gonadotropin stimulation and embryo quality. The different phases of the menstrual cycle correlate with women's moods.

The menstrual cycle phase and ovarian hormones may contribute to increased empathy in women. The natural shift of hormone levels during the different phases of the menstrual cycle has been studied in conjunction

The main difficulty with this task is the fact that the feeble traces of dozens of thousands of letters left by the stylus, often hardly discernible from the natural shading of the soft lime wood, have been superimposed on each other, producing an impenetrable labyrinth of lines (Zaliznyak speaks of a “hyper-palimpsest”). Consequently, ‘reading’ a single concealed text of one page can take weeks. According to Zaliznyak, reading the concealed texts in the scratches is a unique challenge unlike anything attempted by any research team previously.

Under acidic conditions, the solution is red, and under alkaline conditions, the solution is blue. Chemical reactions other than acid-base can also cause a color change to litmus paper. For instance, chlorine gas turns blue litmus paper white – the litmus dye is bleached, because of presence of hypochlorite ions. This reaction is irreversible, so the litmus is not acting as an indicator in this situation. The litmus mixture

catastrophes as Noah's flood, the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, the earthquake that swallowed up Korah and his followers, the plagues of Egypt and the evil that came upon other oppressors of Israel are represented in the Bible as Divine judgments.

This divine judgment is to take place, according to the Biblical view, on earth, and is intended to be particularly a vindication of Israel. This Day of Judgment ("Day of the Lord") is portrayed vividly in the Book of Jubilees

done for semantic concepts such as truth. It shows that no sufficiently rich interpreted language can represent its own semantics. A corollary is that any metalanguage capable of expressing the semantics of some object language must have expressive power exceeding that of the object language. The metalanguage includes primitive notions, axioms, and rules absent from the object language, so that there are theorems provable in the metalanguage not provable in the object language. The undefinability theorem is conventionally attributed to Alfred Tarski. Gödel also discovered the undefinability theorem in 1930, while proving his incompleteness theorems published in 1931, and well

relation to the volume of DO ingested. Different substances can be used to measure different fluid compartments: Intracellular fluid may then be estimated by subtracting extracellular fluid from total body water. Another method of determining total body water percentage (TBW%) is via Bioelectrical Impedance Analysis (BIA). In the traditional BIA method, a person lies on a cot and spot electrodes are placed on the hands and bare feet. Electrolyte gel is applied first, and then a weak current of frequency 50kHz is introduced. This AC waveform allows the creation of a current inside the body via the very capacitive skin

As the results were overwhelmingly in favor of fingerprints, fingerprinting was introduced to British India by the Governor General, and in 1900, replaced Anthropometry. Also in 1900, Henry was sent to Natal, South Africa to assist in the reorganization of the local police force and establish a fingerprint bureau. His efforts in South Africa were highly successful; and in 1901 Sir Henry returned to Britain and was appointed Assistant Commissioner of Scotland Yard, head of the Criminal Investigation Department

Peptide Peptides (from Gr.: πεπτός, "peptós" "digested"; derived from πέσσειν, "péssein" "to digest") are short chains of amino acid monomers linked by peptide (amide) bonds. The covalent chemical bonds are formed when the carboxyl group of one amino acid reacts with the amino group of another. The shortest peptides are dipeptides, consisting of 2 amino acids joined by a single peptide bond, followed by tripeptides, tetrapeptides, etc. A polypeptide is a long, continuous, and unbranched peptide chain. Hence, peptides fall under the broad chemical classes of biological oligomers and polymers, alongside nucleic acids, oligosaccharides and polysaccharides, etc. Peptides are distinguished

He pointed out what he saw as weaknesses of the main Aristotelian arguments against the existence of multiple universes.

This version of atomism has specific views about the vacant space, or void, in which the atoms move, combine and separate. He

A pistol provides extra security. Some of these cartridges (e.g. the .45-70) are developmental descendants of very early black-powder metallic cartridges. When metallic cartridges and lever-actions were first invented, very small, portable kits were developed for hand-reloading and bullet-molding (so called "cowboy reloading kits"). These kits are still available for most low-pressure lever-action cartridges. Stronger lever actions, such as the action of the Marlin Model 1894 can utilize high-pressure cartridges.
