Effect of a direct-fed microbial (10-G Armor) on feedlot performance, carcass characteristics, and prevalence of in fed-beef heifers.

Crossbred beef heifers (= 1,394; initial shrunk body weight [BW] 291 ± 9.9 kg) were used to investigate the efficacy of 10-G Armor (Life Products, Inc., Norfolk, NE; 10-G) upon feedlot performance, carcass characteristics, and fecal and subiliac lymph nodes prevalence.

A comprehensive analysis of translational missense errors in the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

The process of protein synthesis must be sufficiently rapid and sufficiently accurate to support continued cellular growth. Failure in speed or accuracy can have dire consequences, including disease in humans. Most estimates of the accuracy come from studies of bacterial systems, principally Escherichia coli, and have involved incomplete analysis of possible errors.
