Analysis of extrema of heartbeat time series in exercise test.

The heartbeat time series of the electrocardiogram recorded during exercise test clearly reflects the physiological control mechanism of the autonomic nervous system on heart rate. This series shows both decreasing and increasing trends and variability of the variance. We analyse the series of intervals between two consecutive extrema, i.

KlPMR1 inactivation and calcium addition enhance secretion of non-hyperglycosylated heterologous proteins in Kluyveromyces lactis.

The Kluyveromyces lactis KlPMR1 gene is the functional homologue of Saccharomyces cerevisiae PMR1 which encodes a Ca(2+)-ATPase localized in the Golgi apparatus. We studied the effects of KlPMR1 inactivation on the glycosylation and secretion of native and heterologous proteins in K. lactis.
