Specific Aims

Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) encodes a DNA-editing deaminase, which is a group of the Cytidine Deaminase family (Bello). This protein is concerned in somatic gene conversion, hypermutation, and class-switch recombination of Ig (immunoglobulin genes). Activation-induced cytidine deaminase (AID) has been expressed in B cells at germinal center and starts the events, which lead to class switch recombination of immunoglobulin genes and somatic hypermutation. Additionally to this primary responsibility in immune diversification, deviant targeting of Activation-induced cytidine deaminase activity leads to translocations and point mutations of oncogenes linked with B-cell lymphoma. Lately, AID has been related in active DNA demethylation (Sariah).

Introduction

Today’s society has set beauty standards by the appearance, such as face features and body, and divided others into the terms ‘beautiful’ or ‘ugly’, based on whether one’s appearance fits the standard or not. The standard of beauty has been set through various social implications, which makes the standard different by cultures and countries. We cannot, thus, define what exactly the meaning of ‘beautiful’ is. However, it is nearly the same for any culture and for any country that today’s society judges others by the appearance and treats differently. To achieve my research goal, I have ...

Introduction

Medical Case Reports (MCRs) are medical recounts of a pathological condition about a single patient (Helan, 2012). Authors of the medical case reports, who are doctors, tend to experience unusual, unique or interesting medical aspects in patients' pathology about diagnosis, treatment and adverse reaction to the treatment. Therefore, they are purported to write medical case reports which represent unique or rear patient conditions that can influence new studies and hence increased medical knowledge. Although the medical case reports have for a long time been regarded as much inferior compared to medical research articles, they are becoming recognised as just equally important. Since ...

Introduction

The various setbacks to developing and authenticating input distributions are well known in any institutions that deal with risk assessment and analysis. Due to all these, it has been given a considerable attention more recently. There are various strategies of estimating probability distribution from either empirical data or standard approaches, which are limit practical effectiveness especially whenever such data available are limited. Whenever such cases presents themselves, certain mechanisms and strategies are employed. Such include maximum entropy criteria which actually synthesizes distribution from priori constraints. The other mechanism is to employ the use of ‘default’ such include the triangle or ...

Multivariate Analysis

Guillaume, Knippenberg, and Brodbeck (2014) theorize that social classes or groups are an important starting point to determine the effects of societal diversity on individuals’ attitudes and behavior. People with similar backgrounds whether social, economic, or cultural are more comfortable and more likely to perform better both psychologically and behaviorally (Guillaume et al., 2014). Besharov (2014) states organizational identification occurs when members place a high value on organizational membership and define themselves accordingly. Additionally, creativity, helping behaviors, job satisfaction, and social support are other actions, which contribute to defining classes or groups (Besharov, 2014).
Organization identification benefits are fleeting ...

Introduction

The topic that was chosen for this research study is the death penalty. The occurrence of heinous crimes and rise in the criminality rate supports the restoration of death penalty. Many of the death penalty advocates believe that is a legitimate sanction against murderers for retributive purposes. The more compelling reason to restore the death penalty is the positive claims on its deterrent effect to future crimes. Thus, the punishment can be regarded as a lawful discipline to discourage hardened criminals from their wrongdoings.
This topic was chosen because there are several countries around the globe which questioned the legitimacy ...
