Ecography, EarlyView.Risk assessments of invasive species present one of the most challenging applications of species distribution models (SDMs) due to the fundamental issues of distributional disequilibrium, niche changes, and truncation. Invasive species often occupy only a fraction of their potential environmental and geographic ranges, as their spatiotemporal dynamics ...

Constraints of FL Motif on the Targeting and Function of Sodium-Bicarbonate Cotransporter 1 [PDF]
, 2008 A C-terminal dihydrophobic FL motif plays a vital role in the basolateral targeting of sodium bicarbonate cotransporter 1. To further characterize the role of dihydrophobic FL motif, 1). the FL motif in wild type (PFLS) was reversed to LF (PLFS), 2). the

Identification of a synaptic vesicle-specific membrane protein with a wide distribution in neuronal and neurosecretory tissue. [PDF]
, 1981 Two different monoclonal antibodies, characterized initially as binding synaptic terminal regions of rat brain, bind a 65,000-dalton protein, which is exposed on the outer surface of brain synaptic vesicles. Immunocytochemical experiments at the electron

Food Safety and Health, EarlyView.This study verified that it is feasible to distinguish oranges of different origins, grades and shelf lives by using hyperspectral technology. It covers spectral, image and graph technologies, as well as machine learning and deep learning models. ABSTRACT This study reports the first application of hyperspectral feature fusion technology combined with ...
