A timeslot selection method is provided. The timeslot selection method includes the steps of: obtaining a propagation loss; receiving an occupation state and an interference amount of an uplink timeslot; obtaining a desired wave power from the propagation loss; obtaining a ratio between the desired wave power and the propagation loss for the uplink timeslot in which the occupation state is idle; and selecting the transmitting timeslot by using the ratio. In addition, a timeslot assignment method...

We have now discovered that eukaryotes, including mammals, have a gene that encodes a multifunctional protein having helicase activity, DNA repair activity, p53 sequestering activity and oncogenetic transformation potential. Enhanced transcripts and expression of this gene in non-testicular cells have a high correlation to disease state in a number of cancers, such as colorectal carcinomas, hereditary cancers resulting from defects in DNA repair pathways, breast cancers, etc. Accordingly, discov...
