Sometimes a potentially infinite set of possible states is introduced, and such a set can have a ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Smacoviridae | Smacoviridae is a family of single-stranded DNA viruses. The genomes of this family are small (2.3–2.8 kilobases in length). The name Smacoviridae stands for 'small circular genome virus'. The genomes are circular single-stranded DNA and encode rolling-circle replication initiation proteins (Rep) and unique capsid prot... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shiitake | The shiitake (alternate form shitake) (; Lentinula edodes) is an edible mushroom native to East Asia, which is cultivated and consumed around the globe. It is considered a medicinal mushroom in some forms of traditional medicine.
Taxonomy
The fungus was first described scientifically as Agaricus edodes by Miles Josep... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Closure%20problem | In graph theory and combinatorial optimization, a closure of a directed graph is a set of vertices C, such that no edges leave C. The closure problem is the task of finding the maximum-weight or minimum-weight closure in a vertex-weighted directed graph.
It may be solved in polynomial time using a reduction to the maxi... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intel%20i960 | Intel's i960 (or 80960) was a RISC-based microprocessor design that became popular during the early 1990s as an embedded microcontroller. It became a best-selling CPU in that segment, along with the competing AMD 29000. In spite of its success, Intel stopped marketing the i960 in the late 1990s, as a result of a settle... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Undeniable%20signature | An undeniable signature is a digital signature scheme which allows the signer to be selective to whom they allow to verify signatures. The scheme adds explicit signature repudiation, preventing a signer later refusing to verify a signature by omission; a situation that would devalue the signature in the eyes of the ver... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Aquatic%20ape%20hypothesis | The aquatic ape hypothesis (AAH), also referred to as aquatic ape theory (AAT) or the waterside hypothesis of human evolution, postulates that the ancestors of modern humans took a divergent evolutionary pathway from the other great apes by becoming adapted to a more aquatic habitat. While the hypothesis has some popul... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terpene%20synthase%20N%20terminal%20domain | In molecular biology, this protein domain belongs to the terpene synthase family (TPS). Its role is to synthesize terpenes, which are part of primary metabolism, such as sterols and
carotene, and also part of the secondary metabolism. This entry will focus on the N terminal domain of the TPS protein.
Function
Terpenes... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear%20equivalence | According to the principle of nuclear equivalence, the nuclei of essentially all differentiated adult cells of an individual are genetically (though not necessarily metabolically) identical to one another and to the nucleus of the zygote from which they descended. This means that virtually all somatic cells in an adult... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/James%20Harrison%20%28engineer%29 | James Harrison (17 April 1816 – 3 September 1893) was a Scottish Victorian newspaper printer, journalist, politician, and pioneer in the field of mechanical refrigeration.
Harrison founded the Geelong Advertiser newspaper and was a member of the Victorian Legislative Council and Victorian Legislative Assembly. Harriso... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Declawing%20of%20crabs | Declawing of crabs is the process whereby one or both claws of a crab are manually detached before the return of the live crab to the water, as practiced in the fishing industry worldwide. Crabs commonly have the ability to regenerate lost limbs after a period of time, and thus declawing is viewed as a potentially more... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Victorivirus | Victorivirus is a genus of viruses, in the family Totiviridae. Filamentous fungi serve as natural hosts. There are 14 species in this genus.
Structure
Viruses in Victorivirus are non-enveloped, with icosahedral geometries, and T=2 symmetry. The diameter is around 40 nm. Genomes are linear, around 4.6-6.7kb in length. ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tav%20HaYosher | The Tav HaYosher is a certification mark offered, free of charge, to Kosher food establishments that meet a series of ethical criteria developed by the organization, Uri L'Tzedek. Particularly, the Tav HaYosher confirms that an eating establishment with its seal pays minimum wage to all employees and overtime to those ... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bass%20conjecture | In mathematics, especially algebraic geometry, the Bass conjecture says that certain algebraic K-groups are supposed to be finitely generated. The conjecture was proposed by Hyman Bass.
Statement of the conjecture
Any of the following equivalent statements is referred to as the Bass conjecture.
For any finitely gener... |
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RootkitRevealer | RootkitRevealer is a proprietary freeware tool for rootkit detection on Microsoft Windows by Bryce Cogswell and Mark Russinovich. It runs on Windows XP and Windows Server 2003 (32-bit-versions only). Its output lists Windows Registry and file system API discrepancies that may indicate the presence of a rootkit. It is t... |
