N4 phage, which infects E. coli K-12 strains, could not infect E. coli K-12 strains containing rtn(resistant to N4) gene on plasmids, which was isolated from Proteus vulgaris ATCC 13315. The region of rtn gene for Rtn phenotype was reduced to the 1.7 kb HincII-AccI fragment, and rtn gene seemed to have its own promoter. This putative promoter was present in 107 bp HindII-DraI fragment, and known to be functional in E. cole K-12, which is supported by the fact that phenotype of a subclone, pRMG103A1B which does not contain the 107 bp fragment, was dependent on the existance of a functional promoter in the upstream of rtn gene, and that the 107 bp fragment had promoter activity when located in the upstream of structural gene of galactodinase of E. coli. The promoter-bearing fragment contains two overlapping putative promoter sequences, both of which show a fit in eight of twelve nucleotides with consensus sequences of E. coli promoters at the -35 and -10 regions.

Objective: To investigate the beneficial effect of fragment removal on the subsequent cell division and clinical outcome of the fragmented human embryos. Methods: A prospective study was performed in Hanna Women's Clinic and Mizmedi Hospital. Sixty couples undergoing In vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) program were participated in the present study. The microsurgical fragment removal was performed in 106 fragmented embryos of 29 patients before the transfer. As a control group, 122 fragmented embryos of 31 patients were transferred without the fragment removal. Effects of fragment removal on morphological changes and clinical outcomes of fragmented embryos were investigated. Results: Mean morphological grade (G2.79) of fragmented embryos was significantly improved after the fragment removal(G1.63, p<0.001). Most of the fragmented embryos did not show a regeneration of fragments after the fragment removal during the subsequent development, and a beneficial effect of fragment removal on the development of the fragment removed embryos was observed. Implantation and pregnancy rates of fragment removed embryos were 12.3% and 31.3%, whereas the rates of control group embryos were 6.6% and 22.5%, respectively. There was no statistical significance in the rates between the two groups because of the low number of trials. Conclusion: Microsurgical fragment removal improved the subsequent development as well as the morphological grade of fragmented embryos. The fragment removal may be beneficial for neighboring blastomeres by repairing the intercellular communication and removing the secretion of the potential toxic materials by fragments.

Catalytic subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase (PDPc) has been suggested to have three major funational domains such as dihydrplipoamide adetyltransferase(E2)-binding domain, regulatory subunit of PDP(PDP)r-binding domain, and calcium-binding domain. In order to identify functional domains, recombinant catalytic subunit of pyruvate dehydrogenase phosphatase(rPDPc) was expressed in E. coli JM101 and purified to near homogeneity using the unique property of PDPc: PDPc binds to the inner lipoyl domain (L2) of E2 of ppyruvate dehydrogenase complex (PDC) in the presence of Ca+2, not under EGTA. PDPc was limited-proteolysed by typsin, chymotypsin, Arg-C, and elastase at pH 7.0 and 30C and N-terminal analysis of the fragments was done. Chymotrypsin, trypsin, and elastase made two major fragments: N-terminal large fragment, approx. 50kD and C-terminal small fragment, approx.10 kDa. Arg-C made three major fragments: N-terminal fragment, approx. 35kD, and central fragment, approx. 15 kD, and C-terminal fragment, approx. 10 kD. This study strongly suggest that PDPc consists of three major functional domains. However, further study should be necessary to identify the functional role.

Temple trauma that appears initially localized to the skin might possess intracranial complications. Early diagnosis and management of such complications are important, to avoid neurologic sequelae. Non-penetrating head injuries with intracranial hemorrhage caused by a driven bone fragment are extremely rare. A 53-year-old male was referred to our hospital because of intracerebral hemorrhage. He was a mechanic and one day before admission to a local clinic, tip of metallic rod hit his right temple while cutting the rod. Initial brain computed tomography (CT) and magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated scanty subdural hematoma at right temporal lobe and left falx and intracerebral hematoma at both frontal lobes. Facial CT with 3-D reconstruction images showed a small bony defect at the right sphenoid bone's greater wing and a small bone fragment at the left frontal lobe, crossing the falx. We present the unusual case of a temple trauma patient in whom a sphenoid bone fragment migrated from its origin upward, to the contralateral frontal lobe, producing hematoma along its trajectory.

Using the different adsorption properties of ssDNA and dsDNA to GO, this study used a real time and efficient fluorescence assay to detect the enzymatic activity of the Klenow fragment with the adsorbed DNA to GO. Results showed that adsorption of fluorescein-tagged ssDNA to GO resulted in fluorescence quenching and DNA was released from GO by adding complementary DNA. In addition, fluorescence restoration was increased through a polymerization reaction by the Klenow fragment in the presence of a fluorescein-attached template, GO, and primer. Gel electrophoresis was conducted to confirm the hybridization and DNA polymerization reactions on GO.

This paper addresses the vertical class fragmentation in distributed object-oriented databases. In the proposed vertical fragmentation, after producing the attribute fragment by partitioning attributes, then the method fragment is produced by gathering methods referring the attribute in each fragment. For partitioning attributes, we define query access matrix(QAM) and method access matrix(MAM) to express attributes that method refers, and extend QAM, MAM and attribute usage matrix(AUM) to universal class environment for representing relationship among other classes through class hierarchy and class composite hierarchy.

Computation steps for 3D graphic processing consist of two stages - fixed operation stage and programming required stage. Using this characteristic of 3D pipeline, a hybrid structure between graphics hardware designed by fixed structure and programmable hardware based on instructions, can handle graphic processing more efficiently. In this paper, fragment Shader is designed under this hybrid structure. It also supports OpenGL ES 2.0. Interior interface is optimized to reduce the delay of entire pipeline, which may be occurred by data I/O between the fixed hardware and the Shader. Interior register group of the Shader is designed by an interleaved structure to improve the register space and processing speed.

Bacillus licheniformis SSA3 can produce a dark-brown antimutagenic pigment. The optimal conditions for production of this pigment are reached at 0.1% tyrosine, in pH 6-8, within 7-9 days, at $30^{\circ}C$, and in aerobic condition. We cloned a DNA fragment involved in pigment synthesis from Bacillus licheniformis SSA3 using a mutant strain. The cloned DNA was 7kb in size, which can produce the same pigment even in E. coli.

This article combines literature and empirical research based on space perception theory and the case study of mixed reality game "The Fragment." It is concluded that the mixed reality scene under space perception has a three-level visual definition. This definition carries out a corresponding level analysis of the scenes of the "The Fragment" game and draws up the constituent factors of the mixed reality game scene characteristics. Finally, through questionnaire data investigation and analysis, it is verified that the three factors of virtual reality coexistence, human-computer interaction, and local serviceability can better explain the characteristics of mixed reality game scenes. At the end of the study, it is concluded that the definition of three levels of visual hierarchy and the constituent factors of mixed reality game scenes can provide reference and help for other mixed-reality game designs and a brief description of future research plans.
