Feeding evoked by electrical stimulation in collared lizards

Sugerman, Richard A. (Elsevier, 1988)

Feeding was evoked in collared lizards, Crotaphytus collaris, using electrical stimulation of the brain (ESB). Stimulation sites were tested in the forebrain and midbrain of 39 animals. Six stimulation loci were localized ...
Gene expression profiling of Macrophomina phaseolina infected Medicago truncatula roots reveals a role for auxin in plant tolerance against the charcoal rot pathogen

Mah, Kar Men; Uppalapati, Srinivasa Rao; Tang, Yuhong; Allen, Stacy; Shuai, Bin (Elsevier, 2012-03-31)

The soil-borne necrotrophic fungal pathogen Macrophomina phaseolina causes charcoal rot disease in a wide range of plant species. There are no effective control methods for this disease and no genetic resistance for M. ...
Genetic destabilization of Candida albicans by hydroxyurea

Sarachek, Alvin; Henderson, Lori A.; Eddy, K. B. (University of Cambridge * Faculty Press, 1991)

Candida albicans is a commensal component of the normal human microflora, but frequently causes infections in persons undergoing treatment for malignancies. The cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of the antineoplastic agent ...
GlycomicsDB - A data integration platform for glycans and their strucutres

Visvanathan, Mahesh; Siddam, Sasidhar R.; Lee, In-Hee; Lushington, Gerald H.; Bousfield, George R. (Bentham Open, 2011-04-19)

Glycomics is a discipline of biology that deals with the structure and function of glycans (or carbohydrates). Analytical techniques such as mass spectrometry (MS) and nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) are having a significant ...
Glycosylated equine prolactin and its carbohydrate moiety

Butnev, Vladimir Y.; Gotschall, R. Russell; Baker, Vanda L.; Moore, William T.; Gout, Peter W.; Bousfield, George R. (Springer New YorkSpringer New York, 1996-07)

Glycosylated equine prolactin (G-ePRL) and nonglycosylated ePRL were purified to homogeneity from side fractions obtained during isolation of LH/FSH from horse pituitaries. Both PRL forms were isolated together in high ...
Halotolerant aerobic heterotrophic bacteria from the Great Salt Plains of Oklahoma

Caton, Todd M.; Witte, Lisa R.; Ngyuen, H. D.; Buchheim, J. A.; Buchheim, M. A.; Schneegurt, Mark A. (Springer New York, 2004-11)

The Salt Plains National Wildlife Refuge (SPNWR) near Cherokee, Oklahoma, contains a barren salt flat where Permian brine rises to the surface and evaporates under dry conditions to leave a crust of white salt. Rainfall ...
A heteroallelic mutant mouse model: A new orthologue for human hyperphenylalaninemia

Sarkissian, Christineh N.; Boulais, D. M.; McDonald, J. David; Scriver, C. R. (Elsevier, 2000-03)

Hyperphenylalaninemias (HPA) are Mendelian disorders resulting from deficiencies in the conversion of phenylalanine to tyrosine. The vast majority are explained by a primary deficiency of phenylalanine hydroxylase (PAH) ...
High levels of orexin A in the brain of the mouse model for phenylketonuria: possible role of orexin A in hyperactivity seen in children with PKU

Surendran, S.; Campbell, G. A.; Tyring, S. K.; Matalon, K.; McDonald, J. David; Matalon, R. (PubMed, 2003-12)

Phenylketonuria (PKU) is a metabolic disorder caused by phenylalanine hydroxylase deficiency leading to increased levels of phenylalanine in the brain. Hyperactivity is reportedly induced by a high level of orexin A, and ...
Hormone-specific inhibitory influence of alpha-subunit Asn56 oligosaccharide on in vitro subunit association and follicle-stimulating hormone receptor binding of equine gonadotropins

Butnev, Viktor Y.; Gotschall, R. Russell; Butnev, Vladimir Y.; Baker, Vanda L.; Moore, William T.; Bousfield, George R. (Society for the Study of Reproduction, 1998-02-01)

Hybrid hormones were created using combinations of equine (e) LH, eFSH, and eCG alpha- and beta-subunit preparations. The efficiency of eFSH beta association was highest with eLH alpha (64-72%) and was lowest with eCG alpha ...
Hph-1: A mouse mutant with hereditary hyperphenylalaninemia induced by ethylnitrosourea mutagenesis

Bode, V. C.; McDonald, J. David; Guenet, J. L.; Simon, D. (PubMed, 1988-02)

Ethylnitrosourea mutagenesis of spermatogonial stem cells and a three-generation breeding scheme were used to screen for recessive mutations that cause defects in phenylalanine metabolism leading to elevated serum levels ...
Hyperphenylalaninemia in the hph-1 mouse mutant

McDonald, J. David; Bode, Vernon C. (International Pediatrics Research Foundation, 1988-01)

A mutation, resulting in a deficiency of liver GTP-cyclohydrolase activity, has been induced in the laboratory mouse. Mice homozygous for this mutation exhibit hyperphenylalaninemia under the following conditions: 1) early ...
Identification of twelve O-glycosylation sites in equine chorionic gonadotropin beta and equine luteinizing hormone ss by solid-phase Edman degradation

Bousfield, George R.; Butnev, Vladimir Y.; Butnev, Viktor Y. (Society for the Study of Reproduction, 2001-01)

The O-glycosylation sites for equine LHss (eLHss) and eCGss were identified by solid-phase Edman degradation of four glycopeptides derived from the C-terminal region. Both subunits were O-glycosylated at the same 12 ...
Identifying multiple origins of polyploid taxa: A multilocus study of the hybrid cloak fern (Astrolepis integerrima; Pteridaceae).

Beck, James B.; Allison, James R.; Pryer, Kathleen M.; Windham, Michael D. (BOTANICAL SOC AMER INC, 2012-11)

Premise of the study: Molecular studies have shown that multiple origins of polyploid taxa are the rule rather than the exception. To understand the distribution and ecology of polyploid species and the evolutionary ...
