A new member of the CAB gene family: structure, expression and chromosomal location of Cab -8, the tomato gene encoding the Type III chlorophyll a/b-binding polypeptide of photosystem I
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1989-03)
We have previously reported the isolation and characterization of tomato nuclear genes encoding two types of chlorophyll a/b-binding (CAB) polypeptides localized in photosystem (PS) I and two types of CAB polypeptides ...
Regulating leukotriene synthesis: The role of nuclear 5-lipoxygenase
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 2005-12-15)
Leukotrienes are lipid messengers involved in autocrine and paracrine cellular signaling. They are synthesized from arachidonic acid by the 5-lipoxygenase pathway. Current models of this enzymatic pathway recognize that a ...

The Structure of Critical Care Transfer Networks
(Medical Care, 2009-07)
Rationale: Moving patients from low-performing hospitals to high-performing hospitals may improve patient outcomes. These transfers may be particularly important in critical care, where small relative improvements can yield ...
CXC chemokines mechanism of action in regulating tumor angiogenesis
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1998-03)
The CXC chemokines have recently been identified as a family of molecules which can regulate angiogenesis. Members of this family which contain the amino acid motif Glu–Leu–Arg in their amino terminus (ELR + ) act as ...
Current and Emerging Strategies for the Management of Sarcoidosis
(Informa Healthcare USA (NY), 2007)
Modeling degranulation with liposomes: Effect of lipid composition on membrane fusion
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 1994-08)
Degranulation involves the regulated fusion of granule membrane with plasma membrane. To study the role of lipid composition in degranulation, large unilamellar vesicles (LUVs) of increasing complexity in lipid compositions ...
The role of calcium in growth induced by indole-3-acetic acid and gravity in the leaf-sheath pulvinus of oat ( Avena sativa )
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 1992-03)
Leaf-sheath pulvini of excised segments from oat ( Avena sativa L.) were induced to grow by treatment with 10 μM indole-3-acetic acid (IAA), gravistimulation, or both, and the effects of calcium, EGTA, and calcium channel ...
Uncharted Paths: Hospital Networks in Critical Care
(Chest, 2009-03)
Wide variation between hospitals in the quality of critical care lead to many potentially avoidable
deaths. Regionalization of critical care is a possible solution; regionalization has been implemented
for trauma and ...
The lack of effect of market structure on hospice use.
(Health Services Research, 2002-12)
OBJECTIVE: To describe the relative importance of health care market structure and county-level demographics in determining rates of hospice use. DATA SOURCES: Medicare claims data for a cohort of elderly patients newly ...
