Open AccessGlobal functional diversity of freshwater fish is concentrated in the Neotropics while functional vulnerability is widespread
Worldwide biodiversity assessments have mainly focused on species richness but little is known about the diversity of species roles, i.e. functional diversity, while this is a key facet to understanding the co...

Extreme, unilateral widening of Virchow-Robin spaces: case report
We report a case of extreme, largely unilateral dilatation of Virchow-Robin spaces. Fluid-attenuated inversion-recovery images revealed high-signal foci adjacent to the dilated spaces, possibly due to chronic...

A GntR-like negative regulator of the biphenyl degradation genes of the transposon Tn4371
Tn4371, a 55-kb catabolic transposon originally isolated from Ralstonia eutropha A5, carries genes for the degradation of biphenyl/4-chlorobiphenyl, which are clustered on a 13-kb DNA segment located in the midd...

Organisation of the bph gene cluster of transposon Tn4371, encoding enzymes for the degradation of biphenyl and 4-chlorobiphenyl compounds
Tn4371 is a 55 kb transposon which encodes enzymes for the degradation of biphenyl and 4-chlorobiphenyl compounds into benzoate and 4-chlorobenzo-ate derivatives. We constructed a cosmid library of Tn4371 DNA. ...

Phage Mu transposase: deletion of the carboxy-terminal end does not abolish DNA-binding activity
We demonstrate that a specific site on the transposase protein, pA, of bacteriophage Mu is highly susceptible to proteolytic cleavage. Cleavage is observed in a minicell system on solubilisation with the non-i...

Genetic analysis of Mu or mini-Mu containing F′ pro lac episomes after prophage induction
We have investigated the fate of different F pro lac episomes carrying a Mu or mini-Mu, after induction of the Mu or mini-Mu prophage, by looking at the frequencies of transfer of the episome and of one chromosom...

Mu-l promoted integration of a λ-Gal phage in the chromosome of E. coli
Phage Mu-1 is able to promote integration in the chromosome of an E. coli rec A, of the transducing phage λN-r 14 gal 8 which is neither able to replicate nor to integrate by itself. The exact origin of the integ...
