  • Patent number: 11112527
    Abstract: The present application provides a method and a system for determining a saturation exponent of a heterogeneous carbonate reservoir. The method comprises: dividing a target reservoir into at least two reservoir types in accordance with a predetermined rule; obtaining a correspondence relationship between a saturation exponent and a bound water saturation in each of the reservoir types; determining the reservoir type to which a to-be-measured core belongs in accordance with the predetermined rule; obtaining a bound water saturation of the to-be-measured core; and calculating the saturation exponent of the to-be-measured core according to the bound water saturation of the to-be-measured core on the basis of the correspondence relationship of the reservoir type to which the to-be-measured core belongs.
    Type: Grant

  • Publication number: 20130210888
    Abstract: LSD1, a homolog of nuclear amine oxidases, functions as a histone demethylase and transcriptional co-repressor. LSD1 specifically demethylates histone H3 lysine 4, which is linked to active transcription. Lysine demethylation occurs via an oxidation reaction that generates formaldehyde. Importantly, RNAi inhibition of LSD1 causes an increase in H3 lysine 4 methylation and concomitant de-repression of target genes, suggesting that LSD1 represses transcription via histone demethylation. The results thus identify a histone demethylase conserved from S. pombe to human and reveal dynamic regulation of histone methylation by both histone methylases and demethylases.
