Identification of a family of cAMP-binding guanine nucleotide exchange factors by Gregory M. Springett.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1998) -
Identification of a gap junction communication pathway critical in innate immunity
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)The innate immune system is the first line of host defense, and its ability to propagate antimicrobial and inflammatory signals from the cellular microenvironment to the tissue at-large is critical for survival. In a ... -
Identification of a master regulator of differentiation in Toxoplasma gondii
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2020)Toxoplasma gondii is a parasite chronically infecting over a quarter of the world's population. While Toxoplasma infection is asymptomatic in immunocompetent individuals, it can cause life-threatening disease in immunocompromised ... -
Identification of a novel metastasis enhancer, CDCP1, and analysis of its functions during melanoma metastasis
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)Nearly 90% of cancer mortality from solid tumors is due to metastasis of malignant cells to the distant vital organs. It is now well established that a plethora of stromal cells are present within the tumor, and contribute ... -
Identification of Atomic Propositions in English Instructions for Flexible Translation to Robot Planning Representations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2023-09)Creating human-interactive problem-solving robots involves interfacing natural-language instructions into formal representations. This formal representation should contain all the verifiable constituent units (ideally ... -
Identification of best practices in supplier selection and supplier quality management
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1992) -
Identification of branch-point restrictions in microbial metabolism through metabolic flux analysis and local network perturbations
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1991) -
Identification of cell surface assembly mutants in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1999) -
The identification of chemical compounds that decrease cellular levels of toxic Huntington's disease protein through a novel cell-based assay
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)Huntington's disease (HD) is a progressive degenerative neurological disorder. Individuals who inherit the IT15 gene with an expansion of the CAG repeat region inevitably succumb to increasingly sever motor, psychological, ... -
Identification of chemoautotrophic microorganisms from a diffuse flow hydrothermal vent at EPR 9° north using ¹³C DNA stable isotope probing and catalyzed activated reporter deposition-fluorescence in situ hybridization
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)At deep-sea hydrothermal vents chemolithoautotrophic microbes mediate the transfer of geothermal chemical energy to higher trophic levels. To better understand these underlying processes and the organisms catalyzing them, ... -
Identification of civil structural parameters using the extended Kalman filter
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)In the context of civil and industrial structures, structural control and damage detection have recently become an area of great interest. The safety of a structure is always the most important issue for structural engineers, ... -
Identification of clinical characteristics of large patient cohorts through analysis of free text physician notes
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)Background A number of important applications in medicine and biomedical research, including quality of care surveillance and identification of prospective study subjects, require identification of large cohorts of patients ... -
Identification of communication and coordination issues in the U.S. air traffic control system
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2001) -
Identification of conserved chromatin-regulatory complexes among the class B synthetic multivulva proteins
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)The class A, B, and C synthetic Multivulva (synMuv) genes act redundantly to antagonize Ras-mediated vulval induction in C. elegans. Many of these genes encode proteins that are likely to function in transcriptional ... -
Identification of critical locations across multiple infrastructures for terrorist actions
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)This paper discusses a possible approach to ranking geographic regions that can influence multiple infrastructures. Once ranked, decision makers can determine whether these regions are critical locations based on their ... -
Identification of design requirements for a high-performance, low-cost, passive prosthetic knee through user analysis and dynamic simulation
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2013)In January 2012, a partnership was initiated between the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Bhagwan Mahaveer Viklang Sahayata Samiti (BMVSS, a.k.a., Jaipur Foot) to design a high-performance, low-cost, passive ... -
Identification of DNA polymorphisms
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1982) -
Identification of electrolytic cell parameters using a self-tuning predictor.
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1978) -
Identification of factors responsible for successes or failures in the supply chain based on real-world case studies
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The decision of firms from industrialized nations to outsource part or all of their supply chain activities to offshore countries, like in China, carries with it two major issues. The first is related to the costs and ... -
Identification of features contributing to binding promiscuity of small-molecule inhibitors for rapidly mutating targets
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)HIV infection has become a persistent worldwide epidemic despite the continuous development of novel inhibitors. A key challenge in combating HIV and other pandemic viral infections is the ability of the virus to mutate ...
