Temporal Alternation Between Light- And Nutrient-Limitation Of Phytoplankton Production In A Coastal Plain Estuary., Jonathan Pennock, Jonathan H. Sharp
Temporal Alternation Between Light- And Nutrient-Limitation Of Phytoplankton Production In A Coastal Plain Estuary., Jonathan Pennock, Jonathan H. Sharp
School of Marine Science and Ocean Engineering
ABSTRACT: The potential for Light- and nutrient-limitation of phytoplankton production was examined in the Delaware Estuary, USA, by combining a hierarchy of expenmental approaches including smallscale bioassay experiments, ecosystem-level analysis of nutrient concentration and stoichiometric ratios, and light-limitation modeling. Light was found to be the predominate regulator of phytoplankton growth throughout the estuary during the winter period as a result of high turbidity and a wellmixed water column. However, during late spring, phosphorus (P) was found to limit growth. This observation was confirmed at each of the experimental levels, and was related to several factors, including elevated input ratios (230:l) …

Cgmp Binding Sites On Photoreceptor Phosphodiesterase: Role In Feedback Regulation Of Visual Transduction., Rick H. Cote, M Deric Bownds, Vadim Y. Arshavsky
Cgmp Binding Sites On Photoreceptor Phosphodiesterase: Role In Feedback Regulation Of Visual Transduction., Rick H. Cote, M Deric Bownds, Vadim Y. Arshavsky
Molecular, Cellular & Biomedical Sciences
A central step in vertebrate visual transduction is the rapid drop in cGMP levels that causes cGMP-gated ion channels in the photoreceptor cell membrane to close. It has long been a puzzle that the cGMP phosphodiesterase (PDE) whose activation causes this decrease contains not only catalytic sites for cGMP hydrolysis but also noncatalytic cGMP binding sites. Recent work has shown that occupancy of these noncatalytic sites slows the rate of PDE inactivation. We report here that PDE activation induced by activated transducin lowers the cGMP binding afnit for noncatalytic sites on PDE and accelerates the disation of cGMP from these …

Technology Transfer And The Genome Project: Problems With Patenting Research Tools, Rebecca S. Eisenberg
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Professor Eisenberg argues against a system providing for federally-sponsored inventions to be patented if any associated person so desires. She believes that the system does not adequately weigh the possibility that the greatest social return from genome research will require some discoveries to be in the public domain.
Regulation Of Intracellular Cyclic Gmp Concentration By Light And Calcium In Electropermeabilized Rod Photoreceptors., V J. Coccia, Rick H. Cote
Regulation Of Intracellular Cyclic Gmp Concentration By Light And Calcium In Electropermeabilized Rod Photoreceptors., V J. Coccia, Rick H. Cote
Molecular, Cellular & Biomedical Sciences
Abstract
This study examines the regulation of cGMP by illumination and by calcium during signal transduction in vertebrate retinal photoreceptor cells. We employed an electropermeabilized rod outer segment (EP-ROS) preparation which permits perfusion of low molecular weight compounds into the cytosol while retaining many of the features of physiologically competent, intact rod outer segments (ROS). When nucleotide-depleted EP-ROS were incubated with MgGTP, time- and dose-dependent increases in intracellular cGMP levels were observed. The steady state cGMP concentration in EP-ROS (0.007 mol cGMP per mol rhodopsin) approached the cGMP concentration in intact ROS. Flash illumination of EP-ROS in a 250-nM free …

Coping With The Risk Of Cancer In Children Living Near Power Lines, Eileen N. Abt
RISK: Health, Safety & Environment (1990-2002)
Ms. Abt briefly summarizes evidence linking power lines with a possible increase in risk of childhood cancer. She also recounts how, although many experts remain skeptical of causality, public fears, whether or not warranted, have themselves created serious problems. Finally, she proposes ways to address those problems.

Comparative Mapping Of Arabidopsis Thaliana And Brassica Oleracea Chromosomes Reveals Islands Of Conserved Organization, Stanley P. Kowalski, Tien-Hung Lan, Kenneth A. Feldmann, Andrew H. Patterson
Law Faculty Scholarship
The chromosomes of Arabidopsis thaliana and Brassica oleracea have been extensively rearranged since the divergence of these species; however, conserved regions are evident. Eleven regions of conserved organization were detected, ranging from 3.7 to 49.6 cM in A. thaliana, spanning 158.2 cM (24.6%) of the A. thaliana genome, and 245 cM (29.9%) of the B. oleracea genome. At least 17 translocations and 9 inversions distinguish the genomes of A. thaliana and B. oleracea. In one case B. oleracea homoeologs show a common marker order, which is distinguished from the A. thaliana order by a rearrangement, indicating that the lineages of …
