MPQA method applied to the plasma dispersion function

AIP Advances
A new approximation method for the plasma dispersion function Z(ζ) is presented. Multipoint quasi-rational approximation technique is used to find a bridge function that connects the power series and the asymptotic expansion of the function Z(ζ) using ...

dUTPase is essential in zebrafish development and possesses several single‐nucleotide variants with pronounced structural and functional consequences

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
dUTPases are involved in balancing the appropriate nucleotide pools. We showed that dUTPase is essential for normal development in zebrafish. The different zebrafish genomes contain several single‐nucleotide variations (SNPs) of the dut gene. One of the dUTPase variants displayed drastically lower protein stability and catalytic efficiency as compared ...

Series Expansion Approximations of Brownian Motion for Non-Linear Kalman Filtering of Diffusion Processes [PDF]

IEEE Transactions on Signal Processing, 2014
In this paper, we describe a novel application of sigma-point methods to continuous-discrete filtering. In principle, the nonlinear continuous- discrete filtering problem can be solved exactly. In practice, the solution contains terms that are computationally intractible.

Screening and epitope characterization of Nidogen‐2‐specific nanobodies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Camel immunization and phage display were employed to generate high‐affinity VHH nanobodies against Nidogen‐2. After library construction, biopanning, ELISA screening, sequencing, and recombinant expression, selected nanobodies were purified and characterized, leading to the preliminary exploration of a nanobody‐based sandwich ELISA for specific ...

A Low-Order Series Approximation of Thin-Bed PP-Wave Reflections

Applied Sciences, 2019
The study of thin-bed seismic phenomena is important in crustal, exploration and engineering seismology. Presently, seismic reflectivity theories based on single-interface assumption are widely used though they are only suitable for thick deposits.

The Rational Approximation of Functions which are Formally Defined by a Power Series Expansion [PDF]

Mathematics of Computation, 1960
1. Introduction. The advent of high speed digital computers and the consequent intensification of interest in the study of numerical analysis has caused considerable attention to be paid to the problem of obtaining approximation formulas for functions which occur in the theory of mathematical physics.

Series Expansions and Approximations of the Nakagami-m Sum Probability Density Function

IEEE Wireless Communications Letters, 2022
The numerical evaluation of the pdf of a sum of Nakagami-m random variables is considered in this letter. Different methods are proposed to obtain this approximation: i) a power series expansion based on elementary properties of unilateral convolution of power signals; ii) a Laplace approximation stemming from Laplace’s method for asymptotic integral ...

Large‐scale bidirectional arrayed genetic screens identify OXR1 and EMC4 as modifiers of αSynuclein aggregation

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
Activation of the mitochondrial protein OXR1 increases pSyn129 αSynuclein aggregation by lowering ATP levels and altering mitochondrial membrane potential, particularly in response to MSA‐derived fibrils. In contrast, ablation of the ER protein EMC4 enhances autophagic flux and lysosomal clearance, broadly reducing α‐synuclein aggregates.

Unbalanced Job Approximation using Taylor Series Expansion and Review of Performance Bounds

CoRR, 2023
Unbalanced Job Approximation - UJA is a family of low-cost formulas to obtain the throughput of Queueing Networks - QNs with fixed rate servers using Taylor series expansion of job loadings with respect to the mean loading. UJA with one term yields the same throughput as optimistic Balanced Job Bound - BJB, which at some point exceeds the maximum ...

Identifying transcription factors controlling the basal expression of human MRP4 highlights a substantial role for Sp1

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
The MRP4 transporter exports several drugs and signaling molecules. Here, we identified key promoter elements regulating basal MRP4 expression. Using reporter assays, we defined a conserved region with essential Sp1 and contributory Ets sites, which controlled basal MRP4 expression.
