Tay-Sachs disease is a fatal neurodegenerative disorder caused by mutations inactivating the metabolic enzyme HexA. The most common mutation is c.1278insTATC, a tandem 4-bp duplication disrupting expression by frameshift.

The assumed autosomal dominant inherited genetic variants underlying the characteristic white head of Fleckvieh, Simmental, and Hereford cattle have not been identified yet, although the contribution of structural variation upstream the gene has been proposed. Here, we construct a graph pangenome from 24 haplotype assemblies representing seven taurine cattle breeds to identify and characterize the white head-associated locus for the first time based on long-read sequencing data and pangenome analyses.

Background: Cognitive impairment (CI) is one of the main features of multiple sclerosis (MS). Cognitive rehabilitation (CR) programs are crucial for improving cognition and computer-assisted cognitive rehabilitation is considered as an effective method for cognition rehabilitation. To assess the effects of computer-based cognitive rehabilitation program on cognition in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS).

The airborne transmission of infectious diseases and bioaerosol-induced cross-contamination pose significant challenges in the food, dairy, and pharma industries. This study evaluated the effectiveness of 279 nm UV-C LED irradiation for decontaminating bioaerosols, specifically containing microorganisms such as (C3040- Kanamycin resistant), Enteritidis (ATCC 4931), and (ATCC 4973), on food contact surfaces. Borosilicate glass, silicon rubber, and stainless steel (316L) surfaces were selected for experimentation for their usage in the food industry.
