An alternative physiological role for the EmhABC efflux pump in Pseudomonas fluorescens cLP6a
Download2011
Background Efflux pumps belonging to the resistance-nodulation-division (RND) superfamily in bacteria are involved in antibiotic resistance and solvent tolerance but have an unknown physiological role. EmhABC, a RND-type efflux pump in Pseudomonas fluorescens strain cLP6a, extrudes hydrophobic...

Effect of Pollination Success on Floral Longevity in the Orchid Calypso bulbosa (Orchidaceae)
Download1995
The lifespan of an individual flower is often affected by pollination success. Species differ regarding whether male function (pollen removal), female function (pollen deposition), or both trigger floral senescence. We studied senescence in the single- flowered, deceptive orchid Calypso bulbosa...

The goal of this group project has been to coordinate and bring up-to-date information on all genes of Escherichia coli K-12. Annotation of the genome of an organism entails identification of genes, the boundaries of genes in terms of precise start and end sites, and description of the gene...

Generation of a restriction minus enteropathogenic Escherichia coli E2348/69 strain that is efficiently transformed with large, low copy plasmids
Download2008
Raivio, T.L., Price, N.L., Ward, J.D., Hobson, N.
Background Many microbes possess restriction-modification systems that protect them from parasitic DNA molecules. Unfortunately, the presence of a restriction-modification system in a given microbe also hampers genetic analysis. Although plasmids can be successfully conjugated into the...

Background Comparative whole genome analysis of Mammalia can benefit from the addition of more species. The pig is an obvious choice due to its economic and medical importance as well as its evolutionary position in the artiodactyls. Results We have generated ~3.84 million shotgun sequences...

Specific detection of Campylobacter jejuni using the bacteriophage NCTC 12673 receptor binding protein as a probe
Download2011
Szymanski, Christine M., Arutyunov, Denis, McDermott, Mark T., Evoy, Stephane, Singh, Amit
Campylobacter jejuni is found in the intestines of poultry, cattle, swine, wild birds and pet animals and is the major cause of foodborne gastroenteritis in developed countries. We report the use of the receptor binding protein (RBP) of Campylobacter bacteriophage NCTC 12673 for the specific...

Crowell, P.A., Reppy, J.D., Wong, G.K.S., Cho, H.
Measurements of the superfluid density and heat capacity in porous aerogel glasses that are completely filled with liquid helium are presented as examples of critical behavior in the presence of a dilute correlated impurity. Longstanding doubts about the existence of critical behavior in...

The procambium specification gene Oshox1 promotes polar auxin transport capacity and reduces its sensitivity toward inhibition
Download2002
Meijer, A. H., Reub, S., Boot, K. J. M., Scarpella, E.
The auxin-inducible homeobox gene Oshox1 of rice (Oryza sativa) is a positive regulator of procambial cell fate commitment, and its overexpression reduces the sensitivity of polar auxin transport (PAT) to the PAT inhibitor 1-N-naphthylphthalamic acid (NPA). Here, we show that wild-type rice...
