Chapter and Conference Paper
The structure of the scientific information in Marine Chemistry or Chemical Oceanography has been examined, using sample data obtained from Chemical Abstracts. It appears clearly, that these two fields are too...
Chapter
Our overall aim is to identify and characterize basic mechanisms responsible for defective growth control of cancer cells. Much evidence now supports our earlier hypothesis1 that normal cell proliferation is cont...
Article
It has been shown that legume green manures have great potential for replacing a substantial amount of the N fertilizer required for corn (Zea mays L.) production. An experiment was conducted in central Pennsylva...
Article
A chimeric transport protein was made by expression of a fusion of thearsB genes fromEscherichia coli plasmid R773 andStaphylococcus aureus plasmid pI258. The two genes were fused to encode a functional protein w...
Article
The objective of this study was to determine if a re-calibrated version of the computer model NCSWAP (version 36) could accurately predict corn growth and soil N dynamics in conventionally tilled (CT) and no-t...
Article
This paper described studies on the distribution, vector and multiplication of the pathogen of ovine anaplasmosis and a complement fixation test (CFT) for the disease.Anaplasma ovis was found to be widely distrib...
Article
Two experiments were carried out to determine ifBabesia major could be transmitted byBoophilus microplus. In experiment 1, aBabesia-free batch of laboratory rearedBo. microplus larvae were applied to an intact ca...
Article
Understanding the fate of different forms of nitrogen (N) fertilizers applied to soils is an important step in enhancing N use efficiency and minimizing N losses. The growth and N uptake of two citrus rootsto...
Article
The rheological behavior of RBCs treated with WGA of different concentrations was measured by the recently developed new Ektacytometry method in suspending medium of low viscosity. The biophysical meanings of ...
Article
C4 photosynthesis depends upon the strict compartmentalization of the CO2-assimilatory enzymes of the C4 and Calvin cycle in two different cell types, mesophyll and bundle-sheath cells. A differential accumulatio...
Article
It has been suggested that overexpression of the Bcl-2 oncoprotein in human cancer cells contributes to their resistance to apoptosis induced by chemotherapy. We report here that a novel dipeptidyl proteasome ...
Article
Antibacterial peptides have received increasing attention as a new pharmaceutical substance. But the molecular mechanism of lysis is still poorly understood. CMIV gene and mutant CMIV gene in GST fusion system...
Article
Improving the precision in estimating the nitrogen (N) requirement for citrus trees on sandy soils is important for increasing N efficiency by the trees and minimizing potential losses of N in commercial citr...
Article
In this paper, the node movement analysis of the levers of band saw tightening system is developed. A group of theoretical displacement and distortion equations of levers are presented using the Lagrange’s equ...
Article
During mitosis, the parent cell distributes its genetic materials equally into two daughter cells through chromosome segregation, a complex movements orchestrated by mitotic kinases and its effector proteins. ...
Article
Glass eels of the temperate anguillid species, Anguilla japonica, clearly showed a nocturnal activity rhythm under laboratory conditions. Light–dark cycle was a determinant factor affecting their photonegative be...
Article
Entry into mitosis is driven by signaling cascades of mitotic kinases. Our recent studies show that TTK, a kinetochore-associated protein kinase, interacts with CENP-E, a mitotic kinesin located to corona fibe...
Article
We previously mapped the DFNB17 locus to a 3-4 cM interval on human chromosome 7q31 in a large consanguineous Indian family with congenital profound sensorineural hearing loss. To further refine this interval,...
Article
An alkaline β-mannanase was purified to homogeneity from a culture broth of alkaliphilic Bacillus sp. N16-5. The enzyme had optimum activity at pH 9.5 and 70°C. It was composed of a single polypeptide chain with ...
