Genomic Analysis Of Homotypic Vacuole Fusion, E Scott Seeley, Masashi Kato, Nathan Margolis, William Wickner, Gary Eitzen Feb 2002

Genomic Analysis Of Homotypic Vacuole Fusion, E Scott Seeley, Masashi Kato, Nathan Margolis, William Wickner, Gary Eitzen

Dartmouth Scholarship

Yeast vacuoles undergo fission and homotypic fusion, yielding one to three vacuoles per cell at steady state. Defects in vacuole fusion result in vacuole fragmentation. We have screened 4828 yeast strains, each with a deletion of a nonessential gene, for vacuole morphology defects. Fragmented vacuoles were found in strains deleted for genes encoding known fusion catalysts as well as 19 enzymes of lipid metabolism, 4 SNAREs, 12 GTPases and GTPase effectors, 9 additional known vacuole protein-sorting genes, 16 protein kinases, 2 phosphatases, 11 cytoskeletal proteins, and 28 genes of unknown function. Vacuole fusion and vacuole protein sorting are catalyzed by …

Erv14p Directs A Transmembrane Secretory Protein Into Copii-Coated Transport Vesicles, Jacqueline Powers, Charles Barlowe Feb 2002

Erv14p Directs A Transmembrane Secretory Protein Into Copii-Coated Transport Vesicles, Jacqueline Powers, Charles Barlowe

Dartmouth Scholarship

Erv14p is a conserved integral membrane protein that traffics in COPII-coated vesicles and localizes to the early secretory pathway in yeast. Deletion of ERV14 causes a defect in polarized growth because Axl2p, a transmembrane secretory protein, accumulates in the endoplasmic reticulum and is not delivered to its site of function on the cell surface. Herein, we show that Erv14p is required for selection of Axl2p into COPII vesicles and for efficient formation of these vesicles. Erv14p binds to subunits of the COPII coat and binding depends on conserved residues in a cytoplasmically exposed loop domain of Erv14p. When mutations are …

Population Increases Of Large Bird Species In Relation To Impact Standards For Aircraft Engines And Airframes, Richard A. Dolbeer Feb 2002

Population Increases Of Large Bird Species In Relation To Impact Standards For Aircraft Engines And Airframes, Richard A. Dolbeer

United States Department of Agriculture Wildlife Services: Staff Publications

Bird-aircraft collisions (bird strikes) are an increasing safety and economic concern to the USA civil aviation industry, costing over $400 million each year. One approach to reducing risks associated with strikes is to require commercial aircraft components to meet certain standards of safe performance in the event of a bird strike. The Federal Aviation Administration has developed airworthiness standards for airframes, windshields and engines using a single 4-lb (1.82-kg) bird mass as the maximum that must be tested (with the exception of a single 8-lb bird for the empennage, 6-lb bird for certain mid-sized engines that may be developed in …

Site-Selection Model For Optimal Transplantation Of Eelgrass Zostera Marina In The Northeastern Us, Frederick T. Short, Ryan C. Davis, B. S. Kopp, Catherine A. Short, David M. Burdick Feb 2002

Site-Selection Model For Optimal Transplantation Of Eelgrass Zostera Marina In The Northeastern Us, Frederick T. Short, Ryan C. Davis, B. S. Kopp, Catherine A. Short, David M. Burdick

Jackson Estuarine Laboratory

A site-selection model for eelgrass Zostera marina L. ecosystem restoration was developed in the northeastern US to select optimal areas for transplanting eelgrass. The site-selection model synthesizes available historic and literature-based information, reference data, and simple field measurements to identify and prioritize locations for large-scale eelgrass transplantation. Model development was based on the physical and biological characteristics associated with the most successful transplant sites in a mitigation project for the New Hampshire Port Authority. The site-selection process is divided into 3 phases: (1) the first phase uses available environmental information to formulate a preliminary transplant suitability index (PTSI) for pre-screening …


Nuclear Receptor Coactivators Modulate Hormone-Dependent Gene Expression In Brain And Female Reproductive Behavior In Rats, Heather A. Molenda, Adreana L. Griffin, Anthony P. Auger, Margaret M. Mccarthy, Marc J. Tetel Feb 2002

Nuclear Receptor Coactivators Modulate Hormone-Dependent Gene Expression In Brain And Female Reproductive Behavior In Rats, Heather A. Molenda, Adreana L. Griffin, Anthony P. Auger, Margaret M. Mccarthy, Marc J. Tetel

Faculty Research and Scholarship

Gonadal steroid hormones act in the brain to elicit changes in gene expression that result in profound effects on behavior and physiology. A variety of in vitro studies indicate that nuclear receptor coactivators are required for efficient transcriptional activity of steroid receptors. Two nuclear receptor coactivators, steroid receptor coactivator-1 (SRC-1) and cAMP response element binding protein-binding protein (CBP), have been shown to act in concert to enhance ER activity in vitro. In the present study, we investigated the function of these important nuclear receptor coactivators in estrogen action in rodent brain. Reduction of SRC-1 and CBP protein in brain …


Modulation Of Swimming In The Gastropod Melibe Leonina By Nitric Oxide, Winsor H. Watson Iii, James M. Newcomb Feb 2002

Modulation Of Swimming In The Gastropod Melibe Leonina By Nitric Oxide, Winsor H. Watson Iii, James M. Newcomb

Jackson Estuarine Laboratory

Nitric oxide (NO) is a gaseous intercellular messenger produced by the enzyme nitric oxide synthase. It has been implicated as a neuromodulator in several groups of animals, including gastropods, crustaceans and mammals. In this study, we investigated the effects of NO on the swim motor program produced by isolated brains and by semi-intact preparations of the nudibranch Melibe leonina. The NO donors sodium nitroprusside (SNP, 1 mmol l–1) and S-nitroso-N-acetylpenicillamine (SNAP, 1 mmol l–1) both had a marked effect on the swim motor program expressed in isolated brains, causing an increase in the period of the swim cycle and a …

A New Partitioning Around Medoids Algorithm, Mark J. Van Der Laan, Katherine S. Pollard, Jennifer Bryan Feb 2002

A New Partitioning Around Medoids Algorithm, Mark J. Van Der Laan, Katherine S. Pollard, Jennifer Bryan

U.C. Berkeley Division of Biostatistics Working Paper Series

Kaufman & Rousseeuw (1990) proposed a clustering algorithm Partitioning Around Medoids (PAM) which maps a distance matrix into a specified number of clusters. A particularly nice property is that PAM allows clustering with respect to any specified distance metric. In addition, the medoids are robust representations of the cluster centers, which is particularly important in the common context that many elements do not belong well to any cluster. Based on our experience in clustering gene expression data, we have noticed that PAM does have problems recognizing relatively small clusters in situations where good partitions around medoids clearly exist. In this …

MUSC Faculty Journal Articles

Prostasin is a serine protease present in mammalian urine that increases the activity of the epithelial sodium channel (ENaC) when the two are coexpressed in Xenopus oocytes. To determine if aldosterone, one of the principal regulators of urinary Na reabsorption by the distal nephron, affects prostasin expression, we examined prostasin mRNA and protein in a cultured mouse cortical collecting duct cell line (M-1), whole rats, and patients with primary aldosteronism. Aldosterone treatment of M-1 cells substantially increased prostasin expression and stimulated 22Na uptake. Urinary excretion of prostasin in rats that were infused with aldosterone likwise increased by ~4-fold when compared …


Universal Sequence Map (Usm) Of Arbitrary Discrete Sequences, Jonas S. Almeida, Susana Vinga Feb 2002

Universal Sequence Map (Usm) Of Arbitrary Discrete Sequences, Jonas S. Almeida, Susana Vinga

MUSC Faculty Journal Articles

Background: For over a decade the idea of representing biological sequences in a continuous coordinate space has maintained its appeal but not been fully realized. The basic idea is that any sequence of symbols may define trajectories in the continuous space conserving all its statistical properties. Ideally, such a representation would allow scale independent sequence analysis--without the context of fixed memory length. A simple example would consist on being able to infer the homology between two sequences solely by comparing the coordinates of any two homologous units. Results: We have successfully identified such an iterative function for bijective mappingψ of …
