Discovery of a hierarchical distribution of dark matter in the Fornax cluster of galaxies
THE mass of the Universe is widely believed to be dominated by dark matter1. Dark matter is, by its very nature, extremely difficult to investigate, and the presence of dark matter is usually inferred indirectly ...

Primary structures and gene organizations of two types of Wap65 from the pufferfish Takifugu rubripes
We isolated two types of cDNA clone encoding hemopexin-like protein, fWap65-1 and fWap65-2, from the pufferfish Takifugu rubripes. The deduced amino acid sequence of fWap65-1 showed 66–67% identity with those of ...
