A NEW CONTRIBUTION RATIO FOR INDOOR CLIMATE (CRISE) FOR THE CONTRIBUTION EVALUATION OF EACH HEAT AND MOISTURE SOURCE TO THE SPECIFIC ENTHALPY IN A CLOSED SPACE

A new contribution ratio for indoor climate (CRISE) for the contribution evaluation of each heat and moisture source to the specific enthalpy in a closed space

The indoor thermal environment comprises temperature, humidity, wind velocity, and radiant temperature.The spatial distribution of these elements is a combination of the individual responses of the heat and water vapor transported into the space from each source.The contribution ratio for indoor climate (CRI) proposed by Kato, Kobayashi, and Muraka

Repressor element-1 silencing transcription factor/neuronal restrictive silencer factor (REST/NRSF) can regulate HSV-1 immediate-early transcription via histone modification

Abstract Background During primary infection of its human host, Herpes Simplex Virus Type-1 (HSV-1) establishes latency in neurons where the viral genome is maintained in a circular form associated with nucleosomes in a chromatin configration.During latency, most viral genes are silenced, although the molecular mechanisms responsible for this are u

Combined transcriptome and proteome analysis reveal the key physiological processes in seed germination stimulated by decreased salinity in the seagrass Zostera marina L.

Abstract Background Zostera marina L., or eelgrass, is the most widespread seagrass species throughout the temperate northern hemisphere.Unlike the dry seeds of terrestrial plants, eelgrass seeds must survive in water, and salinity is the key factor influencing eelgrass seed germination.In the present study, transcriptome and proteome analysis were
