The 4 202 353 bp genome of the alkaliphilic bacterium Bacillus halodurans C-125 contains 4066 predicted protein coding sequences (CDSs), 2141 (52.7%) of which have functional assignments, 1182 (29%)… (More)

Erythropoietin (EPO) produced by the kidney and the liver (in fetuses) stimulates erythropoiesis. In the central nervous system, neurons express EPO receptor (EPOR) and astrocytes produce EPO. EPO… (More)
A 1.8 V 2 Mb SPin-transfer torque RAM (SPRAM) chip using a 0.2 mum logic process with an MgO tunneling barrier cell demonstrates the circuit technologies for potential low-power nonvolatile RAM, or… (More)
Recently, erythropoietin has been shown to be produced by astrocytes and its production is hypoxia-inducible. In the present study, we demonstrated, using a reverse transcription-polymerase chain… (More)
Bud endodormancy in woody plants plays an important role in their perennial growth cycles. We previously identified a MADS box gene, DORMANCY-ASSOCIATED MADS box6 (PmDAM6), expressed in the… (More)
To test the hypothesis that the frequencies of normal alleles (ANs) with a relatively large number of CAG repeats (large ANs) are related to the prevalences of the dominant spinocerebellar ataxias… (More)
The Japanese Ministry of Health and Welfare Research Committee on Aberrant Portal Blood Flow carried out an epidemiological survey and clinical study on Budd-Chiari syndrome in 1990. In the primary… (More)
In recent years, a number of mammalian zinc transporters have been identified, and candidate genes are rapidly growing. These transporters are classified into two families: ZIP (ZRT, IRT-like… (More)
It has been shown that neurons express erythropoietin (Epo) receptor, but the production of Epo protein in neural tissues has not been demonstrated. Cerebral cells of rat fetuses were cultured, and… (More)
