Control of steroid receptor function and cytoplasmic-nuclear transport by heat shock proteins
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1992-12)
As targeted proteins that move within the cell, the steroid receptors have become very useful probes for understanding the linked phenomena of protein folding and transport. From the study of steroid receptor-associated ...
Specifying the target identity of motoneurons
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1995-05)
In the vertebrate spinal cord, motoneurons are clustered into longitudinal columns in agreement with the targets they innervate. Motoneurons within each column acquire properties early in development that ensure their axons ...
High-resolution genetic mapping of the hypodactyly ( Hd ) locus on mouse Chromosome 6
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 1996-01)
The Enterococcus faecalis Extracellular Metalloendopeptidase (EC 3.4.24.30; Coccolysin) Inactivates Human Endothelin at Bonds Involving Hydrophobic Amino Acid Residues
(Elsevier, 1994-04-30)
The extracellular metalloendopeptidase (EC 3.4.24.30; coccolysin) from Enterococcus faecalis (Strain OG1-10) inactivates human endothelin-1 by hydrolyzing the peptide primarily at the Ser5-Leu6 and the His16-Leu17 bonds ...
Metabolic Capabilities of Escherichia coli II. Optimal Growth Patterns
(Elsevier, 1993-12-21)
A modeling formalism has been developed recently, based on stoichiometry and linear optimization, that enables determination of the capabilities of metabolic networks. Both single and multiple simultaneous metabolic demands ...
Digestion of uncrushed leaf tissues by leaf-snipping larval Lepidoptera
(Springer-Verlag, 1992-02)
Cynodon dactylon (Poaceae) leaf pieces recovered from the frass of final-instar Paratrytone melane larvae (Lepidoptera: Hesperiidae) were composed of 14–22 percent crushed cells and 78–86 percent uncrushed cells, yet ...
A Possible Involvement of Tyrosine Kinase in TRH-Induced Prolactin Secretion in GH3 Cells
(Elsevier, 1994-03-31)
Thyrotropin-releasing hormone (TRH) is a well-known regulatory factor of prolactin (PRL) secretion and synthesis in lactotrophs. Recently we have found that TRH stimulates early tyrosine phosphorylation of MAP kinase in ...
Inhibitory effects of clonidine on serotonergic neuronal activity as measured by cerebrospinal fluid serotonin and its metabolite in anesthetized rats
(Elsevier, 1993)
Clonidine-induced changes in the serotonergic neuronal activity of the central nervous system were estimated by measuring the concentrations of serotonin (5-HT) and its major metabolite, 5-hydroxyindole-3-acetic acid ...
Proboscidean DNA from Museum and Fossil Specimens: An Assessment of Ancient DNA Extraction and Amplification Techniques
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-06)
Applications of reliable DNA extraction and amplification techniques to postmortem samples are critical to ancient DNA research. Commonly used methods for isolating DNA from ancient material were tested and compared using ...
A sequence that directs transcriptional initiation in yeast
(Springer-Verlag, 1990-08)
While RNA polymerase II of the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae initiates transcription at discrete sites, these sites are located over a wide range of distances from the TATA box for different genes. This variability has ...
