Identification of the Kna/Knb polymorphism and a method for Knops genotyping
No full textDNA mutations resulting in the McCoy and Swain-Langley polymorphisms have been identified on complement receptor 1 (CR1)-a ligand for rosetting of Plasmodium falciparum-infected RBCs. The molecular identification of the Kna/Knb polymorphism was sought to develop a genotyping method for use in the study of the Knops blood group and malaria
CR1 Knops blood group alleles are not associated with severe malaria in the Gambia
No full textThe Knops blood group antigen erythrocyte polymorphisms have been associated with reduced falciparum malaria-based in vitro rosette formation (putative malaria virulence factor). Having previously identified single-nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) in the human complement receptor 1 (CR1/CD35) gene underlying the Knops antithetical antigens Sl1/Sl2 and McC(a)/McC(b), we have now performed genotype comparisons to test associations between these two molecular variants and severe malaria in West African children living in the Gambia. While SNPs associated with Sl:2 and McC(b+) were equally distributed among malaria-infected children with severe malaria and control children not infected with malaria parasites, high allele frequencies for Sl 2 (0.800, 1,365/1,706) and McC(b) (0.385, 658/1706) were observed. Further, when compared to the Sl 1/McC(a) allele observed in all populations, the African Sl 2/McC(b) allele appears to have evolved as a result of positive selection (modified Nei-Gojobori test Ka-Ks/s.e.=1.77, P-valu
Uniqueness of the nonlinear elastic dielectric affine boundary value problem on the whole space and on cone-like regions
No full textConservation laws derived from the energy-momentum tensor are employed to establish under suitable sufficient conditions uniqueness in affine boundary value problems for the homogeneous nonlinear elastic dielectric on the whole space and on certain cone-like regions. In particular, the electric enthalpy is assumed to be strictly quasi-convex for the whole space, and strictly rank-one convex for cone-like regions. Asymptotic behaviour is also stipulated. Uniqueness results for corresponding affine boundary value problems of homogeneous nonlinear elastostatics are a special case of those derived here. © 2009 Springer-Verlag.</p
Northern Cameroon daily interpolated rainfall, 1948-2022, obtained via ordinary kriging using Circular variogram models
No full text<p><strong>Description:</strong> This dataset provides daily interpolated rainfall maps for Northern Cameroon, including North and Extreme North provinces, for the period 1948-2022, at 0.01° resolution, derived from daily rain gauge data observations.</p>
<p><strong>Dataset Preparation Methods:</strong> These maps were obtained by performing interpolation from daily rain gauge data (<a href="../doi/10.5281/zenodo.10156437">NoCORA - Northern Cameroon Observed Rainfall Archive</a> dataset) , using ordinary kriging with fitting of Circular variogram models. Resolution of interpolation is 0.01°. The daily results were assembled into daily geotiff files.</p>
