Our model system is fission yeast, Schizzosaccharomyces pombe, because this haploid eukaryot has the same core molecular machinery for clathrin-mediated endocytosis as mammals.
In order to improve overall neutron economy of the system, the fission blanket is designed with two types of modules, i.e. the natural uranium modules (U-modules) and thorium modules (Th-modules), which are alternately arranged in the toroidal and poloidal directions of the blanket.
Combined with other advantages as a model system, the fission yeast is one of the best systems to study the molecular mechanisms of cell-size control.
Here we have shown how a modular system involving fission yeast Mto1 allows its association with diverse prospective MTOC sites to convert them into active MTOCs.
The main application fields of the fast neutrons are accelerator-driven subcritical systems (ADS) and fusion fission (hybrid) reactor systems for fission energy production.
Each center aims to advance research on solutions in a specific technology area: solar energy; energy storage; materials for energy and extreme environments; carbon capture, utilization, and storage; advanced nuclear energy systems; nuclear fission; energy bioscience; and electric power systems.
Our lab uses two primary experimental systems: the fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, and tissue culture cell/mouse models.
In many systems including fission yeast, Mad2p overexpression is sufficient for Cdc20p inhibition and metaphase arrest [39].
We conducted experiments that are designed to reliably and consistently test the ability of this fully automated counting system to recognize fission tracks in apatite and a muscovite external detector.
NASA launched a nuclear fission system called SNAP-10A in 1965, and Russia launched over 30 fission-powered spacecraft during the Cold War.
