Simian Virus 40 Host Range/Helper Function Mutations Cause Multiple Defects In Viral Late Gene Expression., Terryl Stacy, Michele Chamberlain, Charles N. Cole Dec 1989

Simian Virus 40 Host Range/Helper Function Mutations Cause Multiple Defects In Viral Late Gene Expression., Terryl Stacy, Michele Chamberlain, Charles N. Cole

Dartmouth Scholarship

Simian virus 40 (SV40) deletion mutants dlA2459 and dlA2475 express T antigens that lack the normal carboxy terminus. These mutants are called host range/helper function (hr/hf) mutants because they form plaques at 37 degrees C on BSC-1 and Vero monkey kidney cell lines but not on CV-1p monkey kidney cells. Wild-type SV40 can provide a helper function to permit growth of human adenoviruses in monkey kidney cells; the hr/hf mutants cannot. Progeny yields of hr/hf mutants are also cold sensitive in all cell lines tested. Patterns of viral macromolecular synthesis in three cell lines (Vero, BSC-1, and CV-1) at three …

Complex Motor Dynamics And Control In Multi-Looped Negative Feedback Systems, Anne Beuter, John Milton, Christiane Labrie, Leon Glass Nov 1989

Complex Motor Dynamics And Control In Multi-Looped Negative Feedback Systems, Anne Beuter, John Milton, Christiane Labrie, Leon Glass

WM Keck Science Faculty Papers

Experiments were performed in normal and Parkinsonian subjects who were asked to maintain a constant finger position using time-delayed visual feedback. The finger position showed complex dynamics, with characteristic differences between normal and Parkinosonian subjects. Here we discuss some of the theoretical issues that must be resolved in order to understand the mechanisms that underlie the generation of these complex signals.

Significance Of Premature Stop Codons In Env Of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus, Toshiaki Kodama, Dawn P. Wooley, Yathirajulu M. Naidu, Harry W. Kestler Iii, Muthiah D. Daniel, Yen Li, Ronald C. Desrosiers Nov 1989

Significance Of Premature Stop Codons In Env Of Simian Immunodeficiency Virus, Toshiaki Kodama, Dawn P. Wooley, Yathirajulu M. Naidu, Harry W. Kestler Iii, Muthiah D. Daniel, Yen Li, Ronald C. Desrosiers

Neuroscience, Cell Biology & Physiology Faculty Publications

The location of the translational termination codon for the transmembrane protein (TMP) varies in three infectious molecular clones of simian immunodeficiency virus from macaques (SIVmac). The SIVmac251 and SIVmac142 infectious clones have premature stop signals that differ in location by one codon; transfection of these DNAs into human HUT-78 cells yielded virus with a truncated TMP (28 to 30 kilodaltons [kDa]). The SIVmac239 infectious clone does not have a premature stop codon in its TMP-coding region. Transfection of HUT-78 cells with this clone initially yielded virus with a full-length TMP (41 kDa). …


Comparisons Of Cutoff And Regression-Based Definitions Of Reading Disabilities, J. M. Fletcher, K. A. Espy, D. J. Francis, K. C. Davidson, B. P. Rourke, S. A. Shaywitz Nov 1989

Comparisons Of Cutoff And Regression-Based Definitions Of Reading Disabilities, J. M. Fletcher, K. A. Espy, D. J. Francis, K. C. Davidson, B. P. Rourke, S. A. Shaywitz

Developmental Cognitive Neuroscience Laboratory: Faculty Publications

Investigated specificity in reading disability by comparing 2 approaches to defining and selecting children with reading disabilities. One approach defined reading disability according to cutoff scores representing appropriate levels of intelligence and reading deficiency, whereas the other approach adjusted these scores for their intercorrelation through regression procedures. Results reveal differences in which of 1,069 children (aged 9-14 yrs) were identified as reading disabled, depending on the definition used. However, differences in neuropsychological performance between Ss whose reading scores were discrepant or not discrepant with their IQ scores were small and nonspecific for both definitions.

Linker Insertion Mutants Of Simian Virus 40 Large T Antigen That Show Trans-Dominant Interference With Wild-Type Large T Antigen Map To Multiple Sites Within The T-Antigen Gene., Jiyue Y. Zhu, Charles N. Cole Nov 1989

Linker Insertion Mutants Of Simian Virus 40 Large T Antigen That Show Trans-Dominant Interference With Wild-Type Large T Antigen Map To Multiple Sites Within The T-Antigen Gene., Jiyue Y. Zhu, Charles N. Cole

Dartmouth Scholarship

Linker insertion mutants affecting the simian virus 40 (SV40) large tumor (T) antigen were constructed by inserting a 12-base-pair oligonucleotide linker into restriction endonuclease cleavage sites located within the early region of SV40. One mutant, with the insertion at amino acid 5, was viable in CV-1p and BSC-1 cells, indicating that sequences very close to the amino terminus of large T could be altered without affecting the lytic infection cycle of SV40. All other mutants affecting large T were not viable. In complementation assays between the linker insertion mutants and either a late-gene mutant, dlBC865, or a host range/helper function …


Occupational Therapy In Early Intervention: A Family-Centered Approach., Roseann C. Schaaf, L L. Mulrooney Nov 1989

Occupational Therapy In Early Intervention: A Family-Centered Approach., Roseann C. Schaaf, L L. Mulrooney

Department of Occupational Therapy Faculty Papers

This article describes a framework for occupational therapy service provision in early intervention settings and presents pilot data aimed at examining the framework's effectiveness. The Family-Centered Framework for Early Intervention is a synthesis of concepts from the Model of Human Occupation (Kielhofner & Burke, 1980) and from the literature on play. It encompasses a systematic, holistic approach that considers the child and the family within the context of their life environments. In this framework, play is used both as an evaluative tool and as an intervention modality that addresses the volition, habituation, and performance of the child and family as …

Starman, David Eyre, Harry Charbonneau, Maria Harrylock, Mary Ann Weis, Lester Weiss, John M. Graham Jr., Peter H. Byers

Dartmouth Scholarship

Skin fibroblasts grown from three individuals with osteogenesis imperfecta (OI) each synthesized a population of normal type I collagen molecules and additional molecules that had one or two alpha 1(I) chains that contained a cysteine residue within the triple-helical domain, a region from which cysteine normally is excluded. The patients had very different phenotypes. One patient with OI type I had a population of alpha 1(I) chains in which glycine at position 94 of the triple helix was substituted by cysteine; a patient with OI type III had a population of alpha 1(I) chains in which glycine at position 526 …


The Safety Of Maximal Exercise Testing, Larry W. Gibbons, Steven N. Blair, Harold W. Kohl Iii, Kenneth H. Cooper Oct 1989

The Safety Of Maximal Exercise Testing, Larry W. Gibbons, Steven N. Blair, Harold W. Kohl Iii, Kenneth H. Cooper

Faculty Publications

Previous reports on the safety of exercise testing have been based on surveys from different testing facilities with a variety of testing protocols and patient types. From 1971 through 1987, 71,914 maximal exercise tests conducted in a population with a low prevalence of known coronary heart disease under uniform conditions at a single medical facility resulted in six major cardiac complications including one death. No complications have occurred in the past 10 years in 45,000 maximal tests. The overall cardiac complication rate in men and women is 0.8 complications per 10,000 tests with 95% confidence intervals of 0.3-1.9 complications per …


Embryonic Chicken Fibroblast Collagen Binding Proteins: Distribution, Role In Substratum Adhesion, And Relationship To Integrins, Roy C. Ogle, A. Jeannette Potts, Marchall Yacoe, Charles D. Little Oct 1989

Embryonic Chicken Fibroblast Collagen Binding Proteins: Distribution, Role In Substratum Adhesion, And Relationship To Integrins, Roy C. Ogle, A. Jeannette Potts, Marchall Yacoe, Charles D. Little

School of Medical Diagnostics & Translational Sciences Publications

Collagen binding proteins (CBP) are hydrophobic, cell surface polypeptides, isolated by collagen affinity chromatography. Antibodies to CBPs inhibit the attachment of embryonic chicken heart fibroblasts to native type I collagen fibrils in a dose-dependent manner. The CBP antibodies also induce rounding and detachment of cells adherent to a planar substratum. This process of antibody-mediated substratum detachment resulted in a clustering of CBP and cell-associated extracellular matrix at the cell surface, and the rearrangement of filamentous actin. Other functional studies showed that cells grown within a three-dimensional gel of type I collagen cannot be immunostained at the cell surface with CBP …

Self-Esteem, Spiritual Well-Being, And Intimacy: A Comparison Among Couples Using Nfp And Oral Contraceptives, Richard J. Fehring, Donna M. Lawrence, Catherine M. Sauvage

College of Nursing Faculty Research and Publications

The purpose of this study was to compare the intimacy, spiritual well being (SWB), and self-esteem of couples using natural family planning (NFP) with those couples using oral contraceptives (OCs). 22 couples who were using the Creighton Model Ovulation Method of NFP for 1 year to avoid pregnancy were matched with 22 couples who were using OCs for a least a 1-year period and administered a SWB, self-esteem, and intimacy inventory. Student t-tests were calculated to determine differences in the mean scores of the 3 inventories between the 2 groups. The results showed that the NFP couples had statistically higher …
