Northeastern Siberia has been inhabited by humans for more than 40,000 years but its deep
population history remains poorly understood. Here we investigate the late Pleistocene …

The fungal pathway for l-arabinose catabolism converts l-arabinose to d-xylulose 5-phosphate
in five steps. The intermediates are, in this order: l-arabinitol, l-xylulose, xylitol and d-…

The fungal l-arabinose pathway consists of five enzymes, aldose reductase, l-arabinitol 4-dehydrogenase,
l-xylulose reductase, xylitol dehydrogenase, and xylulokinase. All the genes …

We examined 188 consecutive patients, each of whom had an acute ankle sprain, using
clinical stability as sessment, stress radiographs, and arthrography to compare the reliability of …

An NADH-dependent l-xylulose reductase and the corresponding gene were identified from
the yeast Ambrosiozyma monospora. The enzyme is part of the yeast pathway for l-…

l-Arabinitol 4-dehydrogenase (EC 1.1.1.12) was purified from the filamentous fungusTrichoderma
reesei (Hypocrea jecorina). It is an enzyme in the l-arabinose catabolic pathway of …

Human ancient DNA studies have revealed high mobility in Europe’s past, and have helped
to decode the human history on the Eurasian continent. Northeastern Europe, especially …

Aging is accompanied by difficulties in auditory information processing, especially in more
complex sound environments. Choir singing requires efficient processing of multiple sound …

Background Factors affecting the success of short tandem repeat (STR) amplification of
poorly preserved samples are generally known, but as of yet, they have seldom been …

It has previously been demonstrated that the advance of the Neolithic Revolution from the
Near East through Europe was decelerated in the northernmost confines of the continent, …
