The polyamides based on 4-amino-1-methylpyrrol-2-carboxylic acid, 4-amino-1-methylimidazole-2-carboxylic acid, and beta-alanine that stabilize oligonucleotide duplexes consisting of G x C pairs through parallel packing in the minor groove were studied. The initial duplex TTGCGCp x GCGCAA melts at 28 degrees C; the TTGCGCp[NH(CH2)3COPyIm betaImNH(CH2)3NH(CH3)2][NH(CH2)3COIm betaImPyNH(CH2)3N(CH3)2] x GCGCAA duplex (bisphosphoramidate with parallel orientation of ligands, where Py, Im, and beta are the residues of 1-methyl-4-aminopyrrol-2-carboxylic and 1-methyl-4-aminoimidazole-2-carboxylic acids and beta-alanine, respectively), at 48 degrees C; and the TTGCGCp[NH(CH2)3COIm betaImPyNH(CH2)3COIm betaImPyNH(CH2)3N(CH3)2] x GCGCAA duplex (a hairpin structure with antiparallel orientation), at 56 degrees C.

Mate-Pair Sequencing Enables Identification and Delineation of Balanced and Unbalanced Structural Variants in Prenatal Cytogenomic Diagnostics.
Clin Chem
January 2025
Department of Obstetrics & Gynaecology, The Chinese University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong SAR, China.
Background: Mate-pair sequencing detects both balanced and unbalanced structural variants (SVs) and simultaneously informs in relation to both genomic location and orientation of SVs for enhanced variant classification and clinical interpretation, while chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) only reports deletion/duplication. Herein, we evaluated its diagnostic utility in a prospective back-to-back prenatal comparative study with CMA.
Methods: From October 2021 to September 2023, 426 fetuses with ultrasound anomalies were prospectively recruited for mate-pair sequencing and CMA in parallel for prenatal genetic diagnosis.
Influence of rock heterogeneity on the correlation between uniaxial compressive strength and Brazilian tensile strength.
Sci Rep

Key Laboratory of Geological Safety of Coastal Urban Underground Space, MNR, Qingdao, 266101, China.
To offer guidance for using Brazilian tensile strength (BTS) to estimate UCS of heterogeneous rocks, this study uses sandstone (fine or coarse grain) and gneiss (0°, 45°, 90° inclined anisotropy) to investigate the influence of grain size or anisotropy on the correlations of UCS-BTS. According to the regression analysis, there is no significant equation of UCS-BTS for rocks with vertical anisotropy. The grain size variation or multidirectional anisotropy can result in a decrease in the determination coefficient value of correlations.

In biological systems such as cells, the macromolecules, which are anisotropic particles, diffuse in a crowded medium. In the present work, we have studied the diffusion of spheroidal particles diffusing between cylindrical obstacles by varying the density of the obstacles as well as the spheroidal particles. Analytical calculation of the free energy showed that the orientational vector of a single oblate particle will be aligned perpendicular, and a prolate particle will be aligned parallel to the symmetry axis of the cylindrical obstacles in equilibrium.

The global rise in work-related musculoskeletal ailments has led to issues like neck discomfort, scapular muscle dysfunction, reduced neck mobility, and functional limitations. This study aimed to evaluate the effectiveness of scapular functional exercises (SFE) and cervical isometric exercises (CIE) on pain, cervical range of motion (CROM), and functional limitations in individuals with chronic mechanical neck pain (CMNP). A two-arm, parallel group pretest-post-test randomized comparative trial was conducted.

Background: The number of patients with neurological disorders and severe disability is increasing globally. These patients often need help with positioning and the amount of support varies with their level of impairment. High rates of work-related musculoskeletal disorders are observed among healthcare professionals (HCP) with patient contact due to injuries during manual handling.
