The Carrington Solar Flares of 1859: Consequences on Life
The beginning of September 1859 was the occasion of the first and unique observation of a giant solar white light flare, auroral displays were observed at low latitudes and geomagnetic observatories recorded e...

Diversity and linkage disequilibrium features in a composite public/private dent maize panel: consequences for association genetics as evaluated from a case study using flowering time
Recent progress in genoty** and resequencing techniques have opened new opportunities for deciphering quantitative trait variation by looking for associations between traits of interest and polymorphisms in ...

BSA adsorption on titanium: ToF-SIMS investigation of the surface coverage as a function of protein concentration and pH-value
The adsorption properties of bovine serum albumin (BSA) on pure titanium (99.99%+) were studied by time-of-flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (ToF-SIMS) and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). For this...

HDLs inhibit endoplasmic reticulum stress and autophagic response induced by oxidized LDLs
The apoptotic effect of oxidized LDLs (oxLDLs) is mediated through a complex sequence of signaling events involving a deregulation of the cytosolic Ca2+ homeostasis. OxLDLs also trigger ER stress that may lead to...

The cyo operon of Pseudomonas putida is involved in carbon catabolite repression of phenol degradation
A bicistronic reporter consisting of the promoterless genes aacC1 (conferring gentamycin resistance) and lacZ fused to the catabolic promoter of the phenol degradation genes was used to identify and analyse muta...

Article
The inverted repeats of IS1384, a newly described insertion sequence from Pseudomonas putida strain H, represent the specific target for integration of IS1383
Analysis of a region on plasmid pPGH1 from Pseudomonas putida strain H that is flanked by two copies of IS1383 has revealed an additional element with the typical features of a bacterial insertion sequence. This...

Article
The transposable elements resident on the plasmids of Pseudomonas putida strain H, Tn5501 and Tn5502, are cryptic transposons of the Tn3 family
Genes for (methyl)phenol degradation in Pseudomonas putida strain H (phl genes) are located on the plasmid pPGH1. Adjacent to the phl catabolic operon we identified a cryptic transposon, Tn5501, of the Tn3 famil...

Clinical Markers of Alcohol Abuse
The term “marker”, which was originally introduced in molecular genetics and is now also established in research on psychoses and alcoholism, has the same meaning as “indicator”, at least as long as no true ge...

Glycoprotein-Lectin-Immunosorbent Assay (GLIA)
Much reported work in recent years points to the essential physiological and pathobiochemical importance of the regulated expression of the variable glycosylation of proteins and lipids. (Schachter 1984; Marti...

Perforin and its role in T lymphocyte-mediated cytolysis
The killing mediated by cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL) represents an important mechanism in the immune defence against tumors and virus infections. The lytic mechanism has been proposed to consist of a polarize...

RFLP Standardization Report for 210H/MspI
The 210H/MspI system identified six standard fragments in the core cell lines as shown in Table 1 and Figure 1. Much of the data received for this system was difficult to interpret because all the fragments we...

RFLP Standardization Report for C4/MspI
The panel of core cell lines cut with restriction enzyme MspI and hybridized with the C4 probe revealed a very simple pattern (Fig. 1). Two fragments were identified, of which only the first was polymorphic (1...

Chapter and Conference Paper
RFLP Standardization Report for Class I/MspI
The class I/MspI system showed extensive polymorphism, identifying 21 fragments on the core cell lines (Table 1 and Fig. 1). However, the large number of bands made interpretation of the data difficult despite...

Chapter and Conference Paper
RFLP Standardization Report for DP Alpha/MspI
The DP alpha/MspI system was found to be relatively polymorphic, identifying 11 standard fragments in the core cell lines as shown in Figure 1 (band number 11 not shown). Fragment number 9 (1.02 kb) was the on...

Chapter and Conference Paper
RFLP Standardization Report for BF/MspI
The Bf/MspI system identified a simple pattern of three fragments (Table 1). Standard fragments 1 and 2 were constant throughout the core cell lines. Fragment 3 was found to be polymorphic, but of low molecula...

RFLP Standardization Report for DR Alpha/MspI
Three standard bands were recognized in the DR alpha/MspI system (Table 1 and Fig. 1). The resolution of fragments 1 and 2 on some autoradiographs was not good enough to allow easy interpretation producing dis...

Chapter and Conference Paper
RFLP Standardization Report for C2/MspI
The C2/MspI system identified three standard fragments in the core cell lines (Fig. 1 and Table 1). Fragments 1 (2.30 kb) and 2 (1.79 kb) were found to be polymorphic, while fragment 3 (1.53 kb) was constant. ...

RFLP Standardization Report For DQ Alpha/MspI
The core cell lines revealed 11 standard fragments in the DQ alpha/Msp1 system as shown in Figure 1. A fragment between standard bands 4 and 5 (at approximately 5.19 kb) has been reported by some laboratories,...

Antigen Society #15 Report (Bw4 and Bw6)
During the Tenth Workshop, 27 anti-sera in the Antigen Society and 22 anti-sera in the Core serology serum set were provided for the serologic analysis of the supertypic HLA-B locus specificities Bw4 and Bw6. ...

RFLP Standardization Report for DR Beta/MsPI
DRbeta/MspI blots were received from four laboratories. In spite of the standardized technique, the overall intensity of the blots and the number of fragments detected were somewhat variable. Marker bands were...
