Growth-associated protein 43 (GAP43), is a strictly conserved protein among vertebrates implicated in neuronal development and neurite branching.Since GAP43 structure contains a calmodulin-binding domain, this protein is able to bind calmodulin and gather it nearby membrane network, thus regulating cytosolic calcium and consequently calcium-depende
Since 2009, three low frequency microwave sensors have been launched into space with the capability of global monitoring of sea surface salinity (SSS).The European Space Agency’s (ESA’s) Microwave Imaging Radiometer using Aperture Synthesis (MIRAS), onboard the Soil Moisture and Ocean Salinity mission (SMOS), and National Aeronautics an
In order to help the material manufacturers and research units to understand, develop and optimize the anti - contamination high temperature nano - ceramic coating with a clear target and to have a comprehensive understanding of the coking problem that the coal Makeup Sponge boilers are faced with, based on the characteristics of both boiler operat
We describe the large-scale meteorological conditions that affected atmospheric chemistry over Mexico during March 2006 when several field campaigns were conducted in the region.In-situ and remote-sensing instrumentation was deployed to obtain measurements of wind, temperature, and humidity profiles in the boundary layer and free atmosphere at four
Buried structures (e.g., culverts and pipes under roadways) installed several decades ago are reaching the end of their service life.Excavation and replacement of these structures will cause disturbances to the transportation network and require significant funding.Trenchless techniques (e.g., sliplining) have been increasingly employed to rehabili
