Identification of a single nucleotide change in a mutant gene for hypoxanthine-guanine phosphoribosyltransferase (HPRT Ann Arbor)
(Springer-Verlag, 1988-05)
HPRT Ann Arbor is a variant of hypoxanthine (guanine) phosphoribosyl-transferase (HPRT: EC 2.4.2.8), which was identified in two brothers with hyperuricemia and nephrolithiasis. In previous studies, this mutant enzyme was ...
Thermal adjustments in cardiac and skeletal muscles of lizards
(Springer-Verlag, 1969-03)
1. Isometric twitch tension development was measured over a wide range of temperatures in skeletal and cardiac (ventricular) muscles from diverse Australian lizards representing several families and including both diurnal ...
A VIP-like peptide co-occurs with substance P and enkephalin in cholinergic preganglionic terminals of the avian ciliary ganglion
(Elsevier, 1987-07-09)
Using single-label and double-label immunohistochemical techniques, many of the substance P-enkephalin containing preganglionic terminals of the avian ciliary ganglion were found to also contain a VIP-like peptide. Since ...
Hormonal regulation of plasminogen activator in rat hepatoma cells
(Kluwer Academic Publishers; Martinus Nijhoff Publishers ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1983-03)
Plasminogen activators are membrane-associated, arginine-specific serine proteases which convert the inactive plasma zymogen plasminogen to plasmin, an active, broad-spectrum serine protease. Plasmin, the major fibrinolytic ...
Cysteine 265 Is in the Active Site of, But Is Not Essential for Catalysis by tRNA-Guanine Transglycosylase (TGT) from Escherichia coli
(Kluwer Academic Publishers-Plenum Publishers; Plenum Publishing Corporation ; Springer Science+Business Media, 1997-01)
Site-directed mutagenesis and X-ray absorption spectroscopy studies have previously shown that the tRNA-guanine transglycosylase (TGT) from Escherichia coli is a zinc metalloprotein and identified the enzymic ligands to ...
Interaction of linear manno-oligosaccharides with three mannose-specific bulb lectins. Comparison with mannose/glucose-binding lectins
(Elsevier, 1992-05-22)
Three new mannose-binding lectins, isolated from daffodil (NPA), amaryllis (HHA), and snowdrop (GNA) bulbs, are capable of precipitating with a linear mannopentaose (Man[alpha]1-3Man[alpha]1-3Man[alpha]1-3Man[alpha]1-2Man). ...
Optimal foraging and fitness in Columbian ground squirrels
(Springer-Verlag, 1990-01)
Optimal diets were determined for each of 109 individual Columbian ground squirrels ( Spermophilus columbianus ) at two sites in northwestern Montana. Body mass, daily activity time, and vegetation consumption rates for ...
