In silico and in vivo models for Qatari-Specific classical homocystinuria as basis for development of novel therapies. by Ismail, Hesham M

“…Wildtype CBS, but not the p.R336C mutant, was able to restore the yeast growth in ΔCBS deficient yeast in a complementation assay. The p.R336C knock-in HEK293T and HepG2 cells decreased the level of CBS expression and reduce its structural stability; however, treatment of the p.R336C knock-in HEK293T cells with betaine, a chemical chaperone, restored the stability and tetrameric conformation of CBS, but not its activity. …”

Effect of Fluid Viscosity and Fiber Length on the Performance of Fibrous Fluid in Horizontal Well Cleanout by Mendez, Michael

“…The results demonstrate the effectiveness of long fiber (length = 0.5 in.) in improving hole cleanout in horizontal wellbores. When a small amount (0.04% wt.) of long fiber was added, the cleanout performance of the high-viscosity fluid did not show a noticeable change. …”

Insights Into the Role of CircRNAs: Biogenesis, Characterization, Functional, and Clinical Impact in Human Malignancies by Nisar, Sabah

“…Compared to the linear RNA, circRNAs are produced differentially by backsplicing exons or lariat introns from a pre-messenger RNA (mRNA) forming a covalently closed loop structure missing 3′ poly-(A) tail or 5′ cap, rendering them immune to exonuclease-mediated degradation. …”

Effect of surfactant and electron treatment on the electrical and thermal conductivity as well as thermal and mechanical properties of ehylene vinyl acetate/expanded graphite compo... by Sefadi, Jeremia Shale

“…The thermal conductivity linearly increased with EG content, and this increase was more pronounced in the case of SDS-EG, but decreased after EB irradiation. The thermal properties were little influenced by EB irradiation, while better polymer–filler interaction and better filler dispersion as a result of SDS treatment, and the EB irradiation initiated formation of a cross-linked network, had a positive effect on the tensile properties.…”
