Budd-Chiari Syndrome with Multiple Thrombi due to a Familial Arg42Ser Mutation in the Protein C Gene by Jun Muratsu, Atsuyuki Morishima, Kazuhiro Mizoguchi, Keiji Ataka, Hiroshi Yamamoto, Xinping Fan, Toshiyuki Miyata, Katsuhiko Sakaguchi

“…We investigated the cause of thrombosis and found that the anticoagulant activity of protein C was decreased. Genetic analysis showed the presence of a c.125C>A (Arg42Ser) substitution in the protein C gene (PROC) of the proband, which generates an Arg42Ser mutation that replaces the scissile bond Arg42-Ala43 normally cleaved by a furin-like processing protease. …”

Smooth Trajectory Planning for Robot under Multiple Constraint by Liu Jing, Zhang Ming

“…The time optimal trajectory planning problem which consider kinematics and dynamics constraints are transformed into a two-variable optimization problem with above trajectory planning approach,the time optimal trajectory is obtained by genetic algorithm. The effectiveness of the planning algorithm is verified by an experiment for a two degree hybrid manipulator. …”

Phylogenomics reveal that plants colonized land together with their fungal symbiotic partners by Rich, Mélanie

“…From their partners, plants get access to mineral nutrient and water resources transported via a fungal network that acts like an extension of their root systems. Using genetic and molecular tools, we showed that distant plant species use similar molecular mechanisms during the symbiosis. …”

WTO, an ontology for wheat traits and phenotypes in scientific publications by Claire Nédellec, Liliana Ibanescu, Robert Bossy, Pierre Sourdille

“…The scientific literature is largely under-exploited, although extremely rich in phenotype descriptions associated with cultivars and genetic information. In this paper we propose the Wheat Trait Ontology (WTO) that is suitable for the extraction and management of scientific information from scientific papers, and its combination with data from genomic and experimental databases. …”
