The Product Of The Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Rss1 Gene, Identified As A High-Copy Suppressor Of The Rat7-1 Temperature-Sensitive Allele Of The Rat7/Nup159 Nucleoporin, Is Required For Efficient Mrna Export, Veronica Del Priore, Christine A. Snay, Andre Bahr, Charles N. Cole Oct 1996

The Product Of The Saccharomyces Cerevisiae Rss1 Gene, Identified As A High-Copy Suppressor Of The Rat7-1 Temperature-Sensitive Allele Of The Rat7/Nup159 Nucleoporin, Is Required For Efficient Mrna Export, Veronica Del Priore, Christine A. Snay, Andre Bahr, Charles N. Cole

Dartmouth Scholarship

RAT7/NUP159 was identified previously in a screen for genes whose products are important for nucleocytoplasmic export of poly(A)+ RNA and encodes an essential nucleoporin. We report here the identification of RSS1 (Rat Seven Suppressor) as a high-copy extragenic suppressor of the rat7-1 temperature-sensitive allele. Rss1p encodes a novel essential protein of 538 amino acids, which contains an extended predicted coiled-coil domain and is located both at nuclear pore complexes (NPCs) and in the cytoplasm. RSS1 is the first reported high-copy extragenic suppressor of a mutant nucleoporin. Overexpression of Rss1p partially suppresses the defects in nucleocytoplasmic export of poly(A)+ RNA, rRNA …


Differential Expression Of The Toxr Regulon In Classical And E1 Tor Biotypes Of Vibrio Cholerae Is Due To Biotype-Specific Control Over Toxt Expression., Victor J. Dirita, Melody Neely, Ronald K. Taylor, Paul M. Bruss Jul 1996

Differential Expression Of The Toxr Regulon In Classical And E1 Tor Biotypes Of Vibrio Cholerae Is Due To Biotype-Specific Control Over Toxt Expression., Victor J. Dirita, Melody Neely, Ronald K. Taylor, Paul M. Bruss

Dartmouth Scholarship

The two major disease-causing biotypes of Vibrio cholerae, classical and El Tor, exhibit differences in their epidemic nature. Their behavior in the laboratory also differs in that El Tor strains produce two major virulence factors, cholera toxin (CT) and the toxin coregulated pilus (TCP), only under very restricted growth conditions, whereas classical strains do so in standard laboratory medium. Expression of toxin and TCP is controlled by two activator proteins, ToxR and ToxT, that operate in cascade fashion with ToxR controlling the synthesis of ToxT. Both biotypes express equivalent levels of ToxR, but only classical strains appear to express ToxT …


The Journey From Nonexerciser To Exerciser: A Grounded Theory Study, Keri Kuniyoshi Medina Dnsc, Ms, Rn May 1996

The Journey From Nonexerciser To Exerciser: A Grounded Theory Study, Keri Kuniyoshi Medina Dnsc, Ms, Rn

The physiological and psychological health benefits of regular physical exercise are well-documented; however, drop-out rates from both supervised and unsupervised exercise remain high. Many potential influences on exercise behavior have been studied, but with largely inconsistent results, making it difficult to identify key targets for intervention. The purpose of this study was to explore the process through which nonexercisers become exercisers, and the contextual factors which affect movement through this process, in order to enable nurses to more successfully assist clients to incorporate exercise into their lifestyles. The exercise experiences of 22 individuals who had successfully made the transition from …
