Dissociating Retrieval Success from Incidental Encoding Activity during Emotional Memory Retrieval, in the Medial Temporal Lobe

The memory-enhancing effect of emotion, during encoding and retrieval, has been linked to the engagement of emotion- and memory-related medial temporal lobe (MTL) regions (amygdala-AMY; hippocampus-HC; parahippocampus-PHC).However, recognition click here tasks used to investigate the neural correlates of retrieval make it difficult to distinguish M

Development of a Novel Fluorescence Assay Based on the Use of the Thrombin-Binding Aptamer for the Detection of O6-Alkylguanine-DNA Alkyltransferase Activity

Human O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (hAGT) is a DNA repair protein that reverses the effects of alkylating agents by removing DNA adducts from the O6 position of guanine.Here, we developed a real-time fluorescence hAGT activity assay that is based on the detection of conformational changes of the thrombin-binding aptamer (TBA).The quadruplex

Influence of Heat Treatments, Parameters and Machining Conditions on Machinability in the Turning of Recycled 6061 Aluminum Alloy

Some manufacturing companies now use recycled aluminum alloys.It is important that they have the necessary data relating to the control of the machinability of these alloys.Thus, this study on the machinability in the turning of two recycled aluminum alloys by a 6061 R and 6061 R-T6 smelter was conducted.The aim of this study is to provide solution

Evolutionary history of the vertebrate Piwi gene family

PIWIs are regulatory proteins that belong to the Argonaute family.Piwis are primarily expressed in gonads and protect the germline against the mobilization and propagation of transposable elements (TEs) through transcriptional gene silencing.Vertebrate genomes encode up to four Piwi genes: Piwil1, Piwil2, Piwil3 and Piwil4, but their duplication hi
