Structures of HIV-1 RT–DNA complexes before and after incorporation of the anti-AIDS drug tenofovir
Tenofovir, also known as PMPA, R-9-(2-(phosphonomethoxypropyl)adenine, is a nucleotide reverse transcriptase (RT) inhibitor. We have determined the crystal structures of two related complexes of HIV-1 RT with tem...

A dynamic XML-NS view based approach for the extensible integration of Web data sources
We propose a three-step technique to achieve this purpose. First, we utilize a collection of XML namespaces organized into hierarchical structure as a medium for expressing data semantics. Second, we define th...

Comparison of the photosynthetic characteristics of two developmental stages inNostoc sphaeroides Kützing (cyanophyta)
The photosynthetic activities between two main developmental stages, colony and hormogonium, of the edible cyanobacteriumNostoc sphaeroides Kützing, were compared. Hormogonia have a higher content of chlorophyll ...
