  • Complementary DNA of the genomic RNA of odontoglossum ringspot virus Cymbidium strain (ORSV-Cy) was synthesized from polyadenylated viral RNA and cloned. Selected clones containing the viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase gene of the virus has been sequenced by automated sequencing system. The complete nucleotide sequence of an open reading frame is 1377 base pairs in length, and encodes a protein of 458 amino acids about 52, 334 D. The 52 kD protein of ORSV shares four sequence motifs characteristic of viral RNA-dependent RNA polymerase. Comparison of the ORSV 52 kD protein sequence with that of other five viruses in tobamovirus group showed 76.0 to 60.7% homologies at the amino acid level and the conservation of the four motifs betwen the viruses.

  • The purpose of this paper is to propose the HMM (hidden markov model) based on multi-observation sequence for the isolated word recognition. The proosed model generates the codebook of MSVQ by dividing each word into several sections followed by dividing training data into several sections. Then, we are to obtain the sequential value of multi-observation per each section by weighting the vectors of distance form lower values to higher ones. Thereafter, this the sequential with high probability value while in recognition. 146 DDD area names are selected as the vocabularies for the target recognition, and 10LPC cepstrum coefficients are used as the feature parameters. Besides the speech recognition experiments by way of the proposed model, for the comparison with it, the experiments by DP, MSVQ, and genral HMM are made with the same data under the same condition. The experiment results have shown that HMM based on multi-observation sequence proposed in this paper is proved superior to any other methods such as the ones using DP, MSVQ and general HMM models in recognition rate and time.

  • In this paper a study about concrete arch bridges built by lattice cantilevers is presented. Lattice cantilevers are partial structures composed of deck, arch, piers and provisional steel diagonals, organized as reticular cantilever girders, in order to build arch bridges without the use of centrings, supports or temporary towers. Characteristics of this construction methodology with its variants are explained together with their implications in the erection sequence. Partial elastic scheme method is implemented in order to find initial forces of temporary cables and a forward analysis is carried out to follow the actual sequence of construction, by extending a procedure already applied to concrete cable-stayed bridges and to arches built by the classical suspended cantilever method. A numerical application on a case-study of a concrete arch bridge is performed together with a comparison between different methodologies followed for its construction sequence. Differences between erection by lattice cantilevers and cable-stayed cantilevers, are discussed. Results can be useful for designers in conceptual design of concrete arch bridges.

  • The aim of this study was to determine the specific polymorphic sites in cattle breeds and inter- and interbreed genetic variation among breeds and to develop a databank of Turkish native cattle mtDNA using sequence analysis. The entire D-loop region was analyzed based on DNA sequences in Turkish Grey, East Anatolian Red, South Anatolian Red, and Anatolian Black native breeds. In total, 68 nucleotide differences were observed at 26 different sites. The variable positions consisted of 22 transitions, two transversions, and two insertions, but no deletions. Haplotype number, haplotype diversity, nucleotide diversity, and mean number of pairwise difference values were found to be 17, 0.993, 0.00478, and 4.275, respectively. In addition, a phylogeny was developed by comparison among cattle populations for which the entire D-loop sequence was available. A high level of genetic variation was observed within and among the native cattle breeds.

  • Expressed sequence tags (ESTs) are generated by single-pass DNA sequencing of clones obtained from cDNA libraries and are powerful tool in the genetic characterization of organisms, owing in large part to the speed and affordability of generating these sequences. Comparison of sequences obtained with those available in public sequence databases allows putative identification of many genes. (omitted)

  • Saccharomyces cervisiae has a highly ordered ring of filaments that lies just inside the cytoplasmic membrane in the region of the mother-bud neck. Mutants defective in any one of the our cell division cycle genes (CDC3, CDC10, CDC11, CDC12) fail to form these filaments and exhibit a pleiotropic phenotype that includes failure to complete cytokinesis and abnormal bud growth. However, the role of the filament is not clear. In order to find out the role of filament, the similar gene in S pombe (called cdc103$\^$+) to the CDC3 was cloned and sequenced. Here I report the sequence analysis of the cdc103$\^$+/ ) to the CDC3 was cloned and sequenced. Here I report the sequence analysis of the cdc103$\^$+/. Comparison of the predicted amino acid sequences of cdc103$\^$+/ and CDC3 revealed that they share significant similarity (43% identity and 56% identity or similarity) to each other.

  • Generally, a suffix tree is an efficient data structure since it reveals the detailed internal structures of given sequences within linear time. However, it is difficult to implement a suffix tree for a large number of sequences because of memory size constraints. Therefore, in order to compare multi-mega base genomic sequence sets using suffix trees, there is a need to re-construct the suffix tree algorithms. We introduce a new method for constructing a suffix tree on secondary storage of a large number of sequences. Our algorithm divides three files, in a designated sequence, into parts, storing references to the locations of edges in hash tables. To execute experiments, we used 1,300,000 sequences around 300Mbyte in EST to generate a suffix tree on disk.

  • This paper investigates the detection performance of fault location using STDR(sequence time domain reflectometry) and SSTDR(spread spectrum time domain reflectometry) with various length and types of sequences, and then, proposes an improved detection technique by eliminating the injected signal in SSTDR. The detection error rates are compared and analyzed in power line channel model with various fault locations, fault types, and spreading sequences such as m-sequence, binary Barker sequence, and 4-phase Frank sequence. It is shown that the proposed technique is able to improve the detection performance obviously when the reflected signal is weak or the fault location is extremely close.

  • This study was undertaken to determine the complete mitochondrial DNA sequence and structure of the mitochondrial genome of Spirometra ranarum, and to compare it with those of S. erinaceieuropaei and S. decipiens. The aim of this study was to provide information of the species level taxonomy of Spirometra spp. using the mitochondrial genomes of 3 Spirometra tapeworms. The S. ranarum isolate originated from Myanmar. The mitochondrial genome sequence of S. ranarum was compared with that of S. erinaceieuropaei (GenBank no. KJ599680) and S. decipiens (GenBank no. KJ599679). The complete mtDNA sequence of S. ranarum comprised 13,644 bp. The S. ranarum mt genome contained 36 genes comprising 12 protein-coding genes, 22 tRNAs and 2 rRNAs. The mt genome lacked the atp8 gene, as found for other cestodes. All genes in the S. ranarum mitochondrial genome are transcribed in the same direction and arranged in the same relative position with respect to gene loci as found for S. erinaceieuropaei and S. decipiens mt genomes. The overall nucleotide sequence divergence of 12 protein-coding genes between S. ranarum and S. decipiens differed by 1.5%, and 100% sequence similarity was found in the cox2 and nad6 genes, while the DNA sequence divergence of the cox1, nad1, and nad4 genes of S. ranarum and S. decipiens was 2.2%, 2.1%, and 2.6%, respectively.

  • Reactive oxygen species (ROS) are very harmful to living organisms due to the potential oxidation of membrane lipids, DNA, proteins, and carbohydrates. transformed E.coli strain QC 871, superoxide dismutase (SOD) double-mutant, with three sequence variant MnSOD1, MnSOD2, and MnSOD3 manganese superoxide dismutase (MnSOD) gene isolated from wheat. Although all QC 871 transformants grown at $37^{\circ}C$ expressed mRNA of MnSOD variants, only MnSOD2 transformant had functional SOD activity. MnSOD3 expressed active protein when grown at $22^{\circ}C$, however, MnSOD1 did not express functional protein at any growing and induction conditions. The sequence comparison of the wheat MnSOD variants revealed that the only amino acid difference between the sequence MnSOD2 and sequences MnSOD1 and 3 is phenylalanine/serine at position 58 amino acid. We made MnSOD2S58F gene, which was made by altering the phenylalaine to serine at position 58 in MnSOD2. The expressed MnSOD2S58F protein had functional SOD activity, even at higher levels than the original MnSOD2 at all observed temperatures. These data suggest that amino acid variation can result in highly active forms of MnSOD and the MnSOD2S58F gene can be an ideal target used for transforming crops to increase tolerance to environmental stresses.
