BackgroundMutations in a novel gene, UBIAD1, were recently found to cause the autosomal dominant eye disease Schnyder corneal dystrophy (SCD).SCD is characterized by an abnormal deposition of cholesterol and phospholipids in the cornea resulting in progressive corneal opacification and visual loss.We characterized lesions in the UBIAD1 gene in new
In this paper, a new rolling robot is proposed.The mechanism of the robot consists of eight links with three degrees of freedom (DOFs).The shape of each link of the robot is an equilateral triangle.The robot realizes its direction switching function Castile Soaps by deforming into different modes of planar parallelogram mechanisms (PPM).In any dete
ABSTRACT Oat crown rust, caused by the fungus Pucinnia coronata f.sp.avenae, is a devastating disease that impacts worldwide oat production.For much of its life cycle, P.coronata f.sp.avenae is dikaryotic, with two separate haploid nuclei that may vary in virulence genotype, highlighting the importance of understanding haplotype diversity in this s
The prevailing view on the debt crises experienced by peripheral countries is that their economies are primarily exposed to shocks arising from existing internal dynamics and defaults follow a unique process.However, parallel to the development of financial capital, most debt crises in the peripheral countries have a systemic structure shaped by th
