Abstract Background Distinct hybrid zones and phenotypic and genomic divergence is often observed between marine and freshwater threespine sticklebacks (Gasterosteus aculeatus).Nevertheless, cases also exist where marine-freshwater divergence is diffuse despite seemingly similar environmental Water Bottles settings.In order to assess what character
BACKGROUND: ATP-dependent D-alanine:D-alanine ligase (Ddl) is a part of biochemical machinery involved in peptidoglycan biosynthesis, as it catalyzes the formation of the terminal D-ala-D-ala dipeptide of the peptidoglycan precursor UDPMurNAc-pentapeptide.Inhibition of Ddl prevents bacterial growth, which makes this enzyme an attractive and viable
Abstract Background Typical symptoms of an acute human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) infections like fever and rash are not specific and can be caused by a multitude of other pathogens, such as Zika or rickettsiosis.Up to 30% of primary HIV infection do not present with the typical flu-like symptoms and thus represent a diagnostic challenge.In this
This paper presents the development of a robust control algorithm to be applied in a knee and ankle joint exoskeleton designed for rehabilitation of flexion/extension movements.The goal of the control law is to follow the trajectory of a straight leg extension routine in a sitting position.This routine is commonly used to rehabilitate Hair Accessor
