Aiming at the limitation of energy and communication distance for nodes in wireless sensor networks and the characteristics of Missouri Star Souvenirs premature death due to ignoring the energy balance for traditional beamforming schemes,an energy efficient beamforming scheme was proposed.First the impact of the number of nodes,the transmission coe
Abstract Background The Drosophila melanogaster genome contains 29 serpin genes, 12 as single transcripts and 17 within 6 gene clusters.Many of these serpins have a conserved "hinge" motif characteristic of active proteinase inhibitors.However, a substantial proportion (42%) lacks this motif and represents non-inhibitory serpin-fold proteins of unk
