Lateral Gene Transfer And Ancient Paralogy Of Operons Containing Redundant Copies Of Tryptophan-Pathway Genes In Xylella Species And In Heterocystous Cyanobacteria, Gary Xie, Carol A. Bonner, Tom Brettin, Raphael Gottardo, Nemat O. Keyhani, Roy A. Jensen Jan 2003

Lateral Gene Transfer And Ancient Paralogy Of Operons Containing Redundant Copies Of Tryptophan-Pathway Genes In Xylella Species And In Heterocystous Cyanobacteria, Gary Xie, Carol A. Bonner, Tom Brettin, Raphael Gottardo, Nemat O. Keyhani, Roy A. Jensen

Publications and Research

Tryptophan-pathway genes that exist within an apparent operon-like organization were evaluated. A seven-gene cluster in Xylella fastidiosa exhibits a sharply delineated low-GC content. This strongly implicates lateral gene transfer. In contrast, parametric studies and protein tree phylogenies did not support the origination of a gene block in the Anabaena/Nostoc lineage by lateral gene transfer.


Up-Regulation Of Neuronal Calcium Sensor-1 (Ncs-1) In The Prefrontal Cortex Of Schizophrenic And Bipolar Patients, Phil Ok Koh, Ashiwel S. Undieh, Robert Levenson, Patricia S. Goldman-Rakic, Michael S. Lidow Jan 2003

Up-Regulation Of Neuronal Calcium Sensor-1 (Ncs-1) In The Prefrontal Cortex Of Schizophrenic And Bipolar Patients, Phil Ok Koh, Ashiwel S. Undieh, Robert Levenson, Patricia S. Goldman-Rakic, Michael S. Lidow

Publications and Research

The delineation of dopamine dysfunction in the mentally ill has been a long-standing quest of biological psychiatry. The present study focuses on a recently recognized group of dopamine receptor- interacting proteins as possible novel sites of dysfunction in schizophrenic and bipolar patients. We demonstrate that the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex in schizophrenia and bipolar cases from the Stanley Foundation Neuropathology Consortium display significantly elevated levels of the D2 dopamine receptor desensitization regulatory protein, neuronal calcium sensor-1. These levels of neuronal calcium sensor-1 were not influenced by age, gender, hemisphere, cause of death, postmortem period, alcohol consumption, or antipsychotic and mood stabilizing …

No Woman Is An Object: Realizing The Feminist Collaborative Video, Alexandra Juhasz Jan 2003

No Woman Is An Object: Realizing The Feminist Collaborative Video, Alexandra Juhasz

Publications and Research

Feminist video does collectivity exceedingly well. Certainly other politicized cultural movements and individuals work through this method, and, of course, feminists also produce work in collaboration in film and other media (as Julia Lesage testifies above). However, I assert that there is a profound natural mechanics to women's work in video that makes the medium's method, theory, and theme the interactive and politicized subjectification of the female sex. Film and patriarchy share the project of women's objectification-they make victims. Video and feminism see women as complex, worthy selves-they produce subjects. In feminist collaboration: video, the medium (inexpensive, debased, nonprofessional), the …

Freshmen's Use Of Library Electronic Resources And Self-Efficacy, Michael Waldman Jan 2003

Freshmen's Use Of Library Electronic Resources And Self-Efficacy, Michael Waldman

Publications and Research

To encourage students' use of the library, and in particular of its electronic resources, we need to understand what factors encourage students to seek out information in the library setting. Research has shown that self-efficacy influences academic achievement. This paper looks at the role self-efficacy plays in their search for information and use of the library's electronic resources, by surveying a class of freshmen at Baruch College. Their library and computer use were analyzed and correlated with their self-efficacy scores. Through statistical analysis, we found that use of the library correlated to the students' use of the library's electronic resources. …

All three title compounds, prepared from bis(3,5-dimethyl-2- nitrophenyl)ditellurium, exhibit high degrees of intramolecular TeÐO coordination. Their TeÐO distances increase in the order C8H8BrNOTe < C8H8BrNO2Te < C8H8Br3NO2Te, with distances of 2.165 (3), 2.306 (1) and 2.423 (6) AÊ , respectively, indicating that C8H8BrNOTe may be more aptly described as 1-bromo-4,6-dimethyl-2,1,3-benzoxatellurazole.
