Chk1 and Wee1 kinases coordinate DNA replication, chromosome condensation and anaphase entry
Download2012
Campbell, S.D., Homola, E.M., Fasulo, B., Yu, K.R., Hsieh, T.S., Sullivan, W., Koyama, C.
Defects in DNA replication and chromosome condensation are common phenotypes in cancer cells. A link between replication and condensation has been established, but little is known about the role of checkpoints in monitoring chromosome condensation. We investigate this function by live analysis,...

Borthwick, Faye, Field, Catherine J., Wang, Ye, Proctor, Spencer D., Jaeschke, Anja, Shi, Danni, Hassanali, Zahra, Ruth, Megan, Russell, James C., Mangat, Rabban, Vine, Donna F., Lu, Jing
There is increasing interest in the potential chronic beneficial effects of dietary n-3 PUFA on the metabolic syndrome (MetS) and associated cardiovascular complications. We have recently established that increased dietary n-3 PUFA has a profound acute benefit on fasting lipids and the...

Merrill, E., Lewis, Mark A., Pybus, M., Potapov, A., Coltman, D.
We develop a model for the spread of chronic wasting disease (CWD) in a mule deer (Odocoileus hemionus) population to assess possible mechanisms of disease transmission and parameterize it for the mule deer population in Alberta, Canada. We consider seven mechanisms of disease transmission...

We develop a model of CWD management by nonselective deer harvest, currently the most feasible approach available for managing CWD in wild populations. We use the model to explore the effects of 6 common harvest strategies on disease prevalence and to identify potential optimal harvest policies...

Circularly-Polarized Endfire Antenna and Arrays for 5G Millimetre-Wave Beamsteering Systems
Download2020-04-17
Al-Amoodi, Khaled, Honari, Mohammad Mahdi, Mirzavand, Rashid, Melzer, Jordan, Elliott, Duncan G., Mousavi, Pedram
This study presents a circularly-polarised substrate-integrated waveguide end-fire antenna and four-antenna arrays for 5G beam-steering mobile devices at 28 GHz. Polarisation is achieved through implementation of a substrate-integrated waveguide notched-septum polariser. It is then loaded with a...
