Topological gravity in genus 2 with two primary fields

We calculate the genus 2 correlation functions of two-dimensional topological gravity, in a background with two primary fields, using the genus 2 topological recursion relations

Remark on Quantum Nambu Bracket

We give an explicit realization of quantum Nambu bracket via matrix of multi-index, which reduces in the continunm limit to the classical Nambu bracket.Comment: Latex, 5page

Potential Application of the CRISPR/Cas9 System against Herpesvirus Infections.

The CRISPR/Cas9 system has been applied in the genome editing and disruption of latent infections for herpesviruses such as the herpes simplex virus, Epstein⁻Barr virus, cytomegalovirus, and Kaposi's sarcoma-associated herpesvirus. CRISPR/Cas9-directed mutagenesis can introduce similar types of mutations to the viral genome as can bacterial artificial chromosome recombination engineering, which maintains and reconstitutes the viral genome successfully. The cleavage mediated by CRISPR/Cas9 enables the manipulation of disease-associated viral strains with unprecedented efficiency and precision. Additionally, current therapies for herpesvirus productive and latent infections are limited in efficacy and cannot eradicate viruses. CRISPR/Cas9 is potentially adapted for antiviral treatment by specifically targeting viral genomes during latent infections. This review, which focuses on recently published progress, suggests that the CRISPR/Cas9 system is not only a useful tool for basic virology research, but also a promising strategy for the control and prevention of herpesvirus latent infections
