Background The Direct Repeat locus of the Mycobacterium tuberculosis complex (MTC) is a
member of the CRISPR (Clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) …

The Mycobacterium tuberculosis phoP mutant strain SO2 has previously been shown to have
reduced multiplication in mouse macrophages and in vivo using the mouse intravenous-…

Biochemical conversion of lignocellulosic feedstocks to advanced biofuels and other
commodities through a sugar-platform process involves a pretreatment step enhancing the …

I. Introduction A photochemical reaction is a process that must be preceded by absorption of
radiation of the appropriate energy by one molecule. Upon radiation absorption the excited …

The effect of six different conditions of wet oxidation (WO) pretreatment on fractionation and
enzymatic convertibility of sugarcane bagasse was investigated. WO resulted in an increase …

Sugarcane bagasse was pre-treated by steam explosion at 205 and 215C and hydrolysed
with cellulolytic enzymes. The hydrolysates were subjected to enzymatic detoxification by …

studies describing the prevalence of psychosis in order to explore methodological factors that …

Two‐component regulatory proteins function in bacteria as sensory and adaptive factors in
response to a wide range of environmental stimuli. Some two‐component systems, such as …

Alterations in genes involved in the repair of DNA mutations (mut genes) result in an increased
mutation frequency and better adaptability of the bacterium to stressful conditions. W-…
