Differential Expression Of Gap Junction Mrnas And Proteins In The Developing Murine Kidney And In Experimentally Induced Nephric Mesenchymes, K. Sainio, Scott F. Gilbert, E. Lehtonen, M. Nishi, N. M. Kumar, N. B. Gilula, L. Saxen Jul 1992

Differential Expression Of Gap Junction Mrnas And Proteins In The Developing Murine Kidney And In Experimentally Induced Nephric Mesenchymes, K. Sainio, Scott F. Gilbert, E. Lehtonen, M. Nishi, N. M. Kumar, N. B. Gilula, L. Saxen

Biology Faculty Works

The expression of three gap junction (GJ) proteins, alpha-1 (Cx43), beta-1 (Cx32), and beta-2 (Cx26), and their transcripts were examined during the ontogeny of the mouse and rat kidney. These proteins were expressed in two non-overlapping patterns. The alpha-1 GJ protein was first observed in mesenchymal cells in the 12-day mouse kidney. By day 14 and thereafter, the ai protein was detected in the transient S-shaped bodies, but not in the podocytes of the maturing glomeruli. After birth the antigen was retained in a small subset of secretory tubules.The beta-1 and beta-2 GJ proteins were similar in their developmental patterns. …

Circadian Fluctuations Of Period Protein Immunoreactivity In The Cns And Visual System Of Drosophila, D. M. Zerr, J. C. Hall, M. Rosbash, Kathleen King Siwicki Aug 1990

Circadian Fluctuations Of Period Protein Immunoreactivity In The Cns And Visual System Of Drosophila, D. M. Zerr, J. C. Hall, M. Rosbash, Kathleen King Siwicki

Biology Faculty Works

When the protein encoded by the period (per) gene, which influences circadian rhythms in Drosophila melanogaster, was labeled with an anti- per antibody in adult flies sectioned at different times of day, regular fluctuations in the intensity of immunoreactivity were observed in cells of the visual system and central brain. These fluctuations persisted in constant darkness. Time courses of the changing levels of staining were altered in the per-short mutant: in light/dark cycles, the phase was earlier than in wild-type, and in constant darkness the period was shorter. In a per-long mutant and in behaviorally subnormal germline transformants (involving transduced …

Radar And Visual Observations Of Autumnal (Southward) Shorebird Migration On Guam, Timothy C. Williams , '64, J. M. Williams Jul 1988

Radar And Visual Observations Of Autumnal (Southward) Shorebird Migration On Guam, Timothy C. Williams , '64, J. M. Williams

Biology Faculty Works

Several species of shorebirds migrate between eastern Asia and the southern Pacific islands, Australia, and New Zealand. Observations made from Guam (13°25′N, 144°45′E) during autumn 1983 indicate that a significant number of birds take a direct route over the western Pacific Ocean. Radar observations and ground counts of migrants on Guam showed two periods of autumnal migratory activity. The first, largely adult birds, was in August and September. The second, largely juveniles, was in late September and October. Radar indicated that large numbers of birds passed over the island to the south with no evidence of compensation for drift by …

Radiotelemetry Of Heart Rates From Free-Ranging Gulls, J. W. Kanwisher, Timothy C. Williams , '64, J. M. Teal, K. O. Lawson Apr 1978

Radiotelemetry Of Heart Rates From Free-Ranging Gulls, J. W. Kanwisher, Timothy C. Williams , '64, J. M. Teal, K. O. Lawson

Biology Faculty Works

A lightweight radiotelemetry system with a range of 80 km was used to monitor heart rate from free-ranging Herring Gulls on flights of up to 20 km. Heart rate varied from 130 beats/min in a resting bird to 625 beats/min for sustained flight. Soaring birds showed rates similar to those of birds sitting quietly on the ground. Simultaneous records of telemetered heart rate and intraspecific conflict on the nesting island revealed that cardiac acceleration preceded overt visual communication. Intensely aggressive behavior was accompanied by heart rates approaching those of sustained flight. Heart rate as a measure of metabolic cost indicates …
