The percent cover of alder in catchments drives dissolved inorganic nitrogen availability in southcentral Alaska headwater streams. I manipulated the availability of N and P to leaf packs of bluejoint grass litter using ...
Edge effects are the responses of organisms to ecological boundaries. I studied edge responses by small mammals in two prairie communities to test two models: 1) edge responses reflect and map to simple habitat associations, ...
Bats are diverse and ubiquitous mammals with a worldwide distribution. In the U.S., especially the southwest, Brazilian free-tails (Tadarida brasiliensis: I. Geoffroy Saint-Hilaire, 1824) are arguably the most abundant bat ...
The nonsense-mediated mRNA decay (NMD) pathway recognizes and degrades mRNA with premature termination codon and some natural mRNA as well. CTR2 is a natural mRNA degraded by NMD in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. The goals of ...
Cell polarity is a common feature of most eukaryotic cells. Recent studies revealed that two heterotrimeric protein complexes, Crumbs (Crb)- Stardust (Sdt)-Patj (Crb complex) and Par-6-aPKC-Bazooka (Baz, Par-3) (Par complex), ...
