Analysis of the Late Steps of Exocytosis: Biochemical and Total Internal Reflection Fluorescence Microscopy (TIRFM) Studies
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 2006-04-20)
1. Time with Julie in his laboratory at the NIH in the early 1970s is remembered. The experience led to a life-long interest in the regulation of catecholamine secretion. Here are summarized aspects of this work.
Letter to the Editor: The C-terminal Domain of Viral IAP Associated Factor (cVIAF) is a Structural Homologue of Phosducin: Resonance Assignments and Secondary Structure of the C-Terminal Domain of VIAF
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 2004-02)
Generation of Phenylpropanoid Pathway-Derived Volatiles in Transgenic Plants: Rose Alcohol Acetyltransferase Produces Phenylethyl Acetate and Benzyl Acetate in Petunia Flowers
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer, 2006-03)
Esters are important contributors to the aroma of numerous flowers and fruits. Acetate esters such as geranyl acetate, phenylethyl acetate and benzyl acetate are generated as a result of the action of alcohol acetyltransferases ...
Fungal community composition and metabolism under elevated CO 2 and O 3
(Springer-Verlag, 2006-02)
Atmospheric CO 2 and O 3 concentrations are increasing due to human activity and both trace gases have the potential to alter C cycling in forest ecosystems. Because soil microorganisms depend on plant litter as a source ...
Peptide F (pro-enkephalin fragment) : Radioimmunoassay, and stress-induced changes in adrenal
(Elsevier, 2006-04-07)
Utilizing a nine amino-acid (Asp-Glu-Leu-Tyr-Pro-Leu-Glu-Val-Glu) non-enkephalin containing fragment of Peptide F from the pro-enkephalin molecule, a radioimmunoassay was developed. Extraction of bovine, rat, and guinea ...
Coastal eutrophication assessment in the United States
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, Inc., 2006-04-21)
Recent national assessments document that nitrogen-driven coastal eutrophication is widespread and increasing in the United States. This significant coastal pollution problem includes impacts including increased areas and ...
Evolution of N-terminal sequences of the vertebrate HOXA13 protein
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York Inc., 2000-02)
While the the role of the homeodomain in HOX function has been evaluated extensively, little attention has been given to the non-homeodomain portions of the HOX proteins. To investigate the evolution of the HOXA13 protein ...
Testing a simple stochastic model for the dynamics of waterfowl aggregations
(Springer-Verlag, 2001-08)
We consider a simple stochastic model for the dynamics of mixed-species waterfowl aggregations and describe two methods for assessing the fit of this model to field data. The model does not incorporate species-specific ...
Sensory responses of descending brain neurons in the walking cricket Gryllus bimaculatus
(Springer-Verlag, 2001-02)
Sensory responses of various descending brain neurons, their modulation during standing or walking, and the correlation of such modulations with stimulus category were investigated. Stimuli involving (1) static or moving ...
Plasma beta-endorphin-like immunoreactivity, self reported pain perception and anxiety levels in women during pregnancy and labor
(Elsevier, 2006-04-07)
Plasma Beta-endorphin (B-END) immunoreactivity was measured in 19 men, 16 women at midcycle, and ten pregnant women at various points in their pregnancies. There is a significant difference between the levels measured in ...
