Crystal structure, luminescence properties, energy transfer, tunable occupation and thermal properties of a novel color-tunable phosphor NaBaSrBO:xCe,yMn.

A series of color-tunable NaBa1-zSrzB9O15:Ce3+,Mn2+ phosphors were synthesized by a high temperature solid state method. Luminescence property, energy transfer, thermal stability and cation substitution were investigated in detail. Due to energy transfer, NaBaB9O15:Ce3+,Mn2+ presents violet to green luminescence and manifest a broad excitation range from 200 to 350 nm.

Mettl14 is required for mouse postimplantation development by facilitating epiblast maturation.

N6-methyladenosine (mA) is the most prevalent and reversible internal modification of mammalian messenger and noncoding RNAs mediated by specific mA writer, reader, and eraser proteins. As an mA writer, the methyltransferase-like 3-methyltransferase-like 14 (METTL14)-Wilms tumor 1-associated protein complex dynamically regulates mA modification and plays important roles in diverse biologic processes. However, our knowledge about the complete functions of this RNA methyltransferase complex, the contributions of each component to the methylation, and their effects on different biologic pathways are still limited.

Measurement of associated Z + charm production in proton-proton collisions at .

A study of the associated production of a boson and a charm quark jet ( ), and a comparison to production with a quark jet ( ), in collisions at a centre-of-mass energy of 8 are presented. The analysis uses a data sample corresponding to an integrated luminosity of 19.7 , collected with the CMS detector at the CERN LHC.

Histone Modifications Regulate the Developmental Expression of Human Hepatic UDP-Glucuronosyltransferase 1A1.

Human UDP-glucuronosyltransferase 1A1 (UGT1A1) is a unique enzyme involved in bilirubin conjugation. We previously characterized the hepatic expression of transcription factors affecting UGT1A1 expression during development. Accordingly, in this study, we characterized the ontogenetic expression of hepatic UGT1A1 from the perspective of epigenetic regulation.

Geometric Parameter Analysis of Ruptured and Unruptured Aneurysms in Patients with Symmetric Bilateral Intracranial Aneurysms: A Multicenter CT Angiography Study.

Background And Purpose: Previous studies of geometric and morphologic parameters of intracranial aneurysms have been conducted to determine rupture risk, which remains incompletely defined due to patient-specific risk factors, such as sex, hypertension, and age. To this end, we compared characteristics of ruptured and unruptured aneurysms in the same patients with symmetric bilateral intracranial aneurysms.

Materials And Methods: Between January 2008 and March 2014, 2361 patients with 2674 aneurysms were diagnosed by CT angiography or surgical findings at 4 medical centers.

Search for pair production of a new b' quark that decays into a Z boson and a bottom quark with the ATLAS detector.

A search is reported for the pair production of a new quark b' with at least one b' decaying to a Z boson and a bottom quark. The data, corresponding to 2.0 fb(-1) of integrated luminosity, were collected from pp collisions at √s = 7 TeV with the ATLAS detector at the CERN Large Hadron Collider.
