It is mainly expressed intracellularly and the protein has nine different isoforms, because the pre-mRNA can be alternatively spliced. The most active and studi... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nimbus%20%28cipher%29 | In cryptography, Nimbus is a block cipher invented by Alexis Machado in 2000. It was submitted to the NESSIE project, but was not selected.
The algorithm uses a 128-bit key. It operates on blocks of 64 bits and consists of 5 rounds of
encryption. The round function is exceedingly simple. In each round the block is XOR... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Basu%27s%20theorem | In statistics, Basu's theorem states that any boundedly complete minimal sufficient statistic is independent of any ancillary statistic. This is a 1955 result of Debabrata Basu.
It is often used in statistics as a tool to prove independence of two statistics, by first demonstrating one is complete sufficient and the o... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Q%20%28cipher%29 | In cryptography, Q is a block cipher invented by Leslie McBride. It was submitted to the NESSIE project, but was not selected.
The algorithm uses a key size of 128, 192, or 256 bits. It operates on blocks of 128 bits using a substitution–permutation network structure. There are 8 rounds for a 128-bit key and 9 rounds ... |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bianchi%20classification | In mathematics, the Bianchi classification provides a list of all real 3-dimensional Lie algebras (up to isomorphism). The classification contains 11 classes, 9 of which contain a single Lie algebra and two of which contain a continuum-sized family of Lie algebras. (Sometimes two of the groups are included in the infi... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Synuclein | Synucleins are a family of soluble proteins common to vertebrates, primarily expressed in neural tissue and in certain tumors.
The name is a blend of the words "synapse" and "nucleus", as it was first found in the synapses in the electromotor nucleus of the electric ray.
Family members
The synuclein family include... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regular%20solution | In chemistry, a regular solution is a solution whose entropy of mixing is equal to that of an ideal solution with the same composition, but is non-ideal due to a nonzero enthalpy of mixing. Such a solution is formed by random mixing of components of similar molar volume and without strong specific interactions, and its... |
