Open AccessMolecular basis for the production of cyclic peptides by plant asparaginyl endopeptidases
Asparaginyl endopeptidases (AEPs) are proteases that have crucial roles in plant defense and seed storage protein maturation. Select plant AEPs, however, do not function as proteases but as transpeptidases (li...

The inner membrane protein YhiM is necessary for Escherichia coli growth at high temperatures and low osmolarity
To survive, Escherichia coli must be able to survive in rapidly changing environmental conditions including changes in temperature and osmolarity. We have studied the role of the inner membrane protein YhiM in ch...

Both leukaemic and normal peripheral B lymphoid cells are highly sensitive to the selective pharmacological inhibition of prosurvival Bcl-2 with ABT-199
Overexpression of the prosurvival protein Bcl-2 marks many B-lymphoid malignancies and contributes to resistance to many commonly used chemotherapeutic agents. The first effective BH3 mimetic inhibitors of Bcl...

Open AccessA Holocene record of Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO)-related hydrologic variability in Southern California (Lake Elsinore, CA)
High-resolution terrestrial records of Holocene climate from Southern California are scarce. Moreover, there are no records of Pacific Decadal Oscillation (PDO) variability, a major driver of decadal to multi-...

Mitigation of Leachates in Blast Furnace Slag Aggregates by Application of Nanoporous Thin Films
The reutilization of slag materials as aggregates is seriously limited by the production of contaminant leachates rich in heavy metals and sulfur when these materials are contacted by water. A unique type of t...

Laboratory studies on the coprecipitation of phosphate with calcium carbonate in the Salton Sea, California
The Salton Sea is a hypereutrophic, saline lake in the desert of southern California. Like many lakes, the primary productivity of the Sea is limited by phosphorus. However, unlike most lakes, the release of P...

Reducing dissolved phosphorus loading to the Salton Sea with aluminum sulfate
The primary productivity of the Salton Sea, California is excessively high, leading to low-oxygen conditions, low clarity, and odors associated with algal decomposition. Treating the inflow water with aluminum...

Properties and distribution of sediment in the Salton Sea, California: an assessment of predictive models
The Salton Sea is the largest lake, on a surface area basis, in California (939 km2). Although saline (>44 g/l) and shallow (mean depth approximately 9.7 m), it provides valuable habitat for a number of endangere...
