The diversity of the human antibody repertoire that is generated by V(D)J gene rearrangement
is extended by nine constant region genes that give antibodies their complex array of …

Both the B cell receptor (BCR) and the T cell receptor (TCR) repertoires are generated through
essentially identical processes of V(D)J recombination, exonuclease trimming of germline …

Diseases associated with tobacco use constitute a major health problem worldwide. Upon
cessation of tobacco use, an unpleasant withdrawal syndrome occurs in dependent …

Individual variation in the Ig germline gene repertoire leads to individual differences in the
combinatorial diversity of the Ab repertoire, but the study of such variation has been …

This book represents a revision and expansion of an earlier set of diagrams for tempera 0 0
tures from 25 to 300 C along the equilibrium vapor-liquid curve for H 0 (Helgeson, Brown, 2 …

The COVID-19 pandemic has put unprecedented pressure on public health resources around
the world. From adversity, opportunities have arisen to measure the state and dynamics of …

It has been suggested that the negative effects associated with nicotine withdrawal promote
continued tobacco use and contribute to the high relapse rate of smoking behaviors. Thus, it …

The POU-domain transcription factor Oct4 is essential for the maintenance of the mammalian
germline. In this study, we show that the germ cell nuclear factor (GCNF), an orphan …

EQ3/6 is a software package for modeling chemical and mineralogic interactions in aqueous
geochemical systems. The major components of the package are EQ3NR (a speciation-…

Osteoblasts are continually recruited from stem cell pools to maintain bone. Although their
immediate precursor is a plastic-adherent mesenchymal stem cell able to generate tissues …
