A methodology to fabricate ultrasoft CoFe nano-/microfilms directly via electrodeposition from a semineutral iron sulfate solution is demonstrated. Using boron-reducer as the additive, the CoFe films...
Nuclear localization of Cdk5 is a key determinant in the postmitotic state of neurons. (2008)
Zhang, Jie, Cicero, Samantha A., Wang, Li, Romito-DiGiacomo, Rita R., Yang, Yan, Herrup, Karl
Cyclin-dependent kinase 5 (Cdk5) is a nontraditional Cdk that is primarily active in postmitotic neurons. Its best known substrates are cytoskeletal proteins. Less appreciated is its role in the...
CELL CYCLE REGULATION IN THE POST-MITOTIC NEURONAL CELLS (2007)
A normal cell cycle is essential for cell proliferation in embryonic development. Once the appropriate numbers of cells are generated, however, there are various populations, e.g. neurons, which will...
FPGA Dynamic Power Minimization through Placement and Routing Constraints (2006)
