The human steroid 21-hydroxylase gene (CYP21A2) participates in cortisol and aldosterone biosynthesis, and resides together with its paralogous (duplicated) pseudogene in a multiallelic copy number variation (CNV), called RCCX CNV.Concerted evolution caused by non-allelic gene conversion has been described in great ape CYP21 genes, and the same con
Recirculating aquaculture system (RAS) technology is seen worldwide as a solution for sustainable fish production.However, there are still deficiencies in the process technology imperiling consistent operation and thus economic results.Drawbacks are linked to essential processes of the water treatment systems such as denitrification.Nitrogenous was
Intelligent robotic systems for patients with motor impairments have gained significant interest over the past few years.Various sensor types and human-machine interface (HMI) methods have been developed; however, most research in this area has focused on eye-blink-based binary control with minimal electrode placements.This approach restricts the c
Abstract Background Bats (Order Chiroptera) are an important reservoir of emerging zoonotic microbes, including viruses of public health concern such as henipaviruses, lyssaviruses, and SARS-related coronaviruses.Despite the continued discovery of new viruses in bat populations, a significant proportion of these viral agents remain uncharacterized,
