For the Cronobacter ICE, in addition to the conjugal transfer, integrase, and replication/partition genes, there is a 21 kb internal segment which carries unique genes among this class of ICEs.
This article identifies four classes of ice accretions: roughness, horn ice, streamwise ice, and spanwise-ridge ice.
Photographed by NASA's IceBridge polar plane last Tuesday, the oddly satisfying formation belongs to class of floating ice structures called tabular icebergs, named for their tabletop shapes.
Eight weeks into my sex-education class, that patch of ice had become my main concern as I walked to school.
Uranus, together with Neptune in our Solar System, belongs to a class of planets called ice giants, which have never been explored using a dedicated mission.
The study results are expected to provide an understanding of local ice pressures and thus be useful in the structural design of ice class ships.
One GEI-type, a class of highly conserved ICEs occurring in Beta- and Gammaproteobacteria will be particularly highlighted.
There was a booklet on the bridge, from the Central Marine Research and Design Institute, in St . Petersburg indicating the proper speed for an ice-class vessel through varying thicknesses of ice; the thicker the ice, the slower the ship should travel, so as not to damage its hull.
Its meditative, metafictional exploration of power, class and ice demands that viewers sit still long enough to realize that it is not just the strong-willed Sasha, but also they who are pulled toward, and apart, by the North Pole.
We hypothesize that these Dehalococcoides ssrA-GIs behave as integrative and mobilizable elements ("IMEs") because they do not appear to encode conjugation, although they share many other features of the broadly defined class of integrative and conjugative elements ("ICEs") [ 33].
