Great Pacific Garbage Patch in August 2015 (model) The patch is created in the gyre of the North Pacific Subtropical Convergence Zone. The Great Pacific Garbage Patch (also Pacific trash vortex and North Pacific Garbage Patch [1]) is a garbage patch, a gyre of marine debris particles, in the central North Pacific Ocean.
The GPGP was first discovered in the early 1990s, and researchers have conventionally used single, fine-meshed nets, typically less than a meter in size, in an attempt to quantify the problem ...
GPGP may refer to: Great Pacific Garbage Patch , or Pacific Trash Vortex, a rotating ocean current containing marine litter Generalized Partial Global Planning (computer science), see Task analysis environment modeling simulation (TAEMS)
The first mimivirus (BV-PW1) was described in 1995, [15] but was not recognized as such until its sequenced genome was released as Cafeteria roenbergensis virus (CroV) in 2010. [16] Subsequently, the Giant Virus Acanthamoeba polyphaga Mimivirus was characterized [17] (which had been mistaken as a bacterium in 1993), [18] and then sequenced. [19]
Glucosyl-3-phosphoglycerate phosphatase (EC 3.1.3.85, GpgP protein) is an enzyme with systematic name α-D-glucosyl-3-phospho-D-glycerate phosphohydrolase. [ 1 ] [ 2 ] This enzyme catalyses the following chemical reaction
The mimivirus is the fourth-largest virus, after the Megavirus chilensis, Pandoravirus and Pithovirus. Mimivirus has a capsid diameter of 400 nm . Protein filaments measuring 100 nm project from the surface of the capsid, bringing the total length of the virus up to 600 nm.
Megavirus [2] is a viral genus, phylogenetically related to Acanthamoeba polyphaga mimivirus (APMV). [3] In colloquial speech, Megavirus chilense is more commonly referred to as just "Megavirus".
