Amylin increases cyclic AMP formation in L6 myocytes through calcitonin gene-related peptide receptors
(Elsevier, 1991-06-14)
The cellular function of amylin is investigated in L6 myocytes, a rat skeletal muscle cell line. Both rat amylin and human amylin-amide acutely cause a dose-dependent increase in cyclic AMP formation in L6 myocytes. 100 ...
Characterization of radish mitochondrial atpA: influence of nuclear background on transcription of atpA -associated sequences and relationship with male sterility
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1990-11)
We have previously shown that the mitochondrial gene atpA , encoding the α subunit of F 1 ATP synthase, is associated with DNA rearrangements and nuclear-specific transcript patterns in the male-sterile cytoplasm of Ogura ...
Nitric Oxide Synthase Activity in Genetic Hypertension
(Elsevier, 1993-07-30)
A porphyrinic sensor was used to monitor nitric oxide released from cultured endothelial and vascular smooth muscle cells obtained from genetically hypertensive rats and from a normotensive reference strain of rats. ...
Localization of sequences related to the human RAD6 DNA repair gene on mouse Chromosomes 11 and 13
(Springer-Verlag, 1995-04)
Localization of thyrotropin-releasing hormone receptor and thyrotroph embryonic factor on mouse Chromosome 15
(Springer-Verlag; Springer-Verlag New York, Inc., 1993-10)
Significance of Root-Mean-Square Deviation in Comparing Three-dimensional Structures of Globular Proteins
(Elsevier, 1994-01-13)
In the study of globular protein conformations, one customarily measures the similarity in three-dimensional structure by the root-mean-square deviation (RMSD) of the C[alpha] atomic coordinates after optimal rigid body ...
Structure-function analysis in nuclear RNase P RNA
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Springer Science+Business Media, 1995-06)
Eukaryotic ribonuclease P (RNase P) enzymes require both RNA and protein subunits for activity in vivo and in vitro . We have undertaken an analysis of the complex RNA subunit of the nuclear holoenzyme in an effort to ...
Evolution of microstructure and magnetic properties in magnetron-sputtered CoCr thin films
(Elsevier, 1992-12)
The microstructure and magnetic-structure development in magnetron-sputtered Co-22at%Cr thin films deposited on amorphous substrates has been examined systematically and in detail. It has been found that the initial deposit ...
Selective extraction using preferential transport through adsorptive membranes
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1996-12-05)
Selective extraction of a protein from a mixture can be accomplished using an adsorptive membrane and low displacement recuperative parametric pumping. Low displacement recuperative parametric pumping can lead to the ...
The effect of dietary nicotine on the allocation of assimilated food to energy metabolism and growth in fourth-instar larvae of the southern armyworm, Spodoptera eridania (Lepidoptera: Noctuidae)
(Springer-Verlag, 1992-03)
Dietary nicotine (0.5%), which is a substrate of the PSMO (polysubstrate monooxygenase) detoxification system in the southern armyworm Spodoptera eridania , has significant negative effects on the weight of food ingested, ...
