TL;DR: In this paper, a simple estimator based on a GLS generalization of deviations from means was proposed for models with correlation between regressors and errors, and with unrestricted error covariance structure.

TL;DR: The results showed that some known miRNAs were expressed in Arabidopsis mature pollen, with most of them being low abundant, which can be utilized in future research to study post-transcriptional gene regulation in pollen function.
Abstract: Background: MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are ~22-nt small non-coding RNAs that regulate the expression of specific target genes in many eukaryotes. In higher plants, miRNAs are involved in developmental processes and stress responses. Sexual reproduction in flowering plants relies on pollen, the male gametophyte, to deliver sperm cells to fertilize the egg cell hidden in the embryo sac. Studies indicated that post-transcriptional processes are important for regulating gene expression during pollen function. However, we still have very limited knowledge on the involved gene regulatory mechanisms. Especially, the function of miRNAs in pollen remains unknown. Results: Using miRCURY LNA array technology, we have profiled the expression of 70 known miRNAs (representing 121 miRBase IDs) in Arabidopsis mature pollen, and compared the expression of these miRNAs in pollen and young inflorescence. Thirty-seven probes on the array were identified using RNAs isolated from mature pollen, 26 of which showed significant differences in expression between mature pollen and inflorescence. Real-time PCR based on TaqMan miRNA assays confirmed the expression of 22 miRNAs in mature pollen, and identified 8 additional miRNAs that were expressed at low level in mature pollen. However, the expression of 11 miRNA that were identified on the array could not be confirmed by the Taqman miRNA assays. Analyses of transcriptome data for some miRNA target genes indicated that miRNAs are functional in pollen. Conclusion: In summary, our results showed that some known miRNAs were expressed in Arabidopsis mature pollen, with most of them being low abundant. The results can be utilized in future research to study post-transcriptional gene regulation in pollen function.

TL;DR: The position and orientation of each segment (vertebrae and disc), along with the lumbar spine lordosis, can be predicted in the neutral posture using data from back angular measurements and could be a very useful prediction tool for industrial and laboratory experiments, as well as analytical models.

TL;DR: The results indicate that the beta-pyrrole brominated porphyrin, (Br(8)TMPyP)Co, binds strongly and cleaves nucleic acids efficiently as compared with (TMPYP) co, which offers a unique tool in biotechnology for cleaving double-stranded DNA with specificity at the A-T regions.
