The X Factor(s): New antibiotic resistance mechanisms in community-associated methicillin resistant Staphylococcus aureus
(2017-03-31)Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) strains typically express low-level heterogeneous (HeR) resistance from which high-level homogeneously resistant (HoR) mutants can be isolated following oxacillin exposure. ... -
X-ray crystal structure of the desulfovibrio vulgaris (hildenborough) apoflavodoxin-riboflavin complex
(Wiley-Blackwell, 1998-12-01)The apoprotein of flavodoxin from Desulfovibrio vulgaris forms a complex with riboflavin. The ability to bind riboflavin distinguishes this flavodoxin from other short-chain flavodoxins which require the phosphate of FMN ... -
Xenophon and the ancient Greek cavalry horse: an equestrian perspective
(2015-11-30)The origins of this thesis lie in my appreciation, because of my own equestrian background, of Xenophon’s Art of Horsemanship and the Cavalry Commander. As the research progressed, I was surprised that classical scholars ... -
An XFEM-Based Methodology for Fatigue Delamination and Permeability in Composites
(2014)Carbon fibre reinforced polymers (CFRP) are one of the prospective material families being investigated for use in the fuel tanks of future reusable space launch vehicles (RSLVs). The extreme thermo-mechanical loading that ... -
Xilinx FPGA implementation of a pixel processor for object detection applications
(2000-06)This paper describes an FPGA and distributed RAM architecture for an image pixel processor implementing primary elements of an object detection system. A comparison of the system performance with existing DSP processor-based ... -
XML to WSML adapter Implementation
(2005)This paper describes an implementation of an Adapter that converts XML to a Web Service Modeling Language (WSML) . WSML is the language used to describe Web Service Modeling Ontology (WSMO) concepts, related ... -
XPLODIV: An exploitation-exploration aware diversification approach for Recommender Systems
(AAAI Press, 2015-07)Recommender Systems (RS) have emerged to guide users in the task of efficiently browsing/exploring a large product space, helping users to quickly identify interesting products. However, suggestions generated with traditional ... -

Xrcc1 interacts with the p58 subunit of dna pol α-primase and may coordinate dna repair and replication during s phase
(Oxford University Press (OUP), 2009-03-21)Repair of single-stranded DNA breaks before DNA replication is critical in maintaining genomic stability; however, how cells deal with these lesions during S phase is not clear. Using combined approaches of proteomics and ... -
XSPARQL-Viz: A Mashup-Based Visual Query Editor for XSPARQL
(Springer, 2013)XSPARQL is a query language which facilitates query, integration and transformation between XML and RDF data formats. Although XSPARQL supports semantic data integration by providing uniform access over XML and RDF, but ... -
XSPARQL: Traveling between the XML and RDF worlds - and avoiding the XSLT pilgrimage
(Springer, 2008)With currently available tools and languages, translating between an existing XML format and RDF is a tedious and error-prone task. The importance of this problem is acknowledged by the W3C GRDDL working group who faces ... -
YARS2: A Federated Repository for Querying Graph Structured Data from the Web
(2007)We present the architecture of an end-to-end semantic search engine that uses a graph data model to enable interactive query answering over structured and interlinked data collected from many disparate sources on the Web. ... -
Yeast histone 2a serine 129 is essential for the efficient repair of checkpoint-blind dna damage
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2003-06-06)Cells maintain genomic stability by the coordination of DNA-damage repair and cell-cycle checkpoint control. In replicating cells, DNA damage usually activates intra-S-phase checkpoint controls, which are characterized by ... -
