Acid-base properties of cyanobacterial surfaces I: Influences of growth phase and nitrogen metabolism on cell surface reactivity
Download2008
Konhauser, K.O., Owttrim, G.W., Smith, D.S., Lalonde, S.V.
Significant efforts have been made to elucidate the chemical properties of bacterial surfaces for the purposes of refining surface complexation models that can account for their metal sorptive behavior under diverse conditions. However, the influence of culturing conditions on surface chemical...

Acid-base properties of cyanobacterial surfaces II: Silica as a chemical stressor influencing cell surface reactivity
Download2008
Owttrim, G.W., Lalonde, S.V., Smith, D.S., Konhauser, K.O.
Bacteria grow in complex solutions where the adsorption of aqueous species and nucleation of mineral phases on the cell surface may interfere with membrane-dependent homeostatic functions. While previous investigations have provided evidence that bacteria may alter their surface chemical...

Identification and expression analysis of WRKY transcription factor genes in canola (Brassica napus L.) in response to fungal pathogens and hormone treatments
Download2009
Kav, N.N., Rahman, M.H., Yang, B., Deyholos, M.K., Jiang, Y.
Background: Members of plant WRKY transcription factor families are widely implicated in defense responses and various other physiological processes. For canola (Brassica napus L.), no WRKY genes have been described in detail. Because of the economic importance of this crop, and its evolutionary...

RNA helicases function as molecular motors that rearrange RNA secondary structure, potentially performing roles in any cellular process involving RNA metabolism. Although RNA helicase association with a range of cellular functions is well documented, their importance in response to abiotic stress...
