    Notes: Abstract Fresh whole leaves and solvent–water leaf extracts of the hedgerow plant panax, Polyscias guilfoylei (Bull), were tested for their attractiveness to male and female Oriental fruit flies, Bactrocera dorsalis, in laboratory flight tunnel and cage olfactometer bioassays. Fresh mature whole panax leaves were found to be attractive to mated female oriental fruit flies in the flight tunnel. Response of males and virgin females was low and in most instances not significantly different from controls. Attraction of mated female flies to the layers resulting from a methylene chloride–water partition or a hexane–water partition of freshly ground leaves using small McPhail traps was greatest in the methylene chloride fraction. When methylene chloride and water layers were tested competitively in a multiple-choice rotating olfactometer, the methylene chloride fraction was more attractive. Tests involving the methylene chloride–water interface (an emulsion of the two partitioned layers) with and without a standard attractant NuLure, showed the emulsion layer to be significantly more attractive than the other fractions or NuLure. In outdoor cage olfactometer assays of methylene chloride and water fractions, activity was greatest in the methylene chloride fraction. The results suggests that volatile semiochemicals from this nonhost plant are attractive to mated female Oriental fruit flies. The results are discussed in relation to the chemical ecology of B. dorsalis and the potential use of this nonhost plant for detection and control of female Oriental fruit flies in the field.

    Notes: High quality nanoscale, phase-pure hexagonal gallium nitride (GaN) crystallites have been synthesized by the thermal induced detonation of molecular precursors of the type (R3N)Ga(N3)3 (R=CH3, C2H5, etc.). The method allows the control of the particle size regime from 2 to about 1000 nm. X-ray diffraction and Rietveld simulations revealed an anisotropic platelet-like shape of the particles. The obtained GaN material was as well characterized by transmission electron microscopy and electron diffraction, photoluminescence spectroscopy, SEM, IR, RAMAN, thermal gas effusion/mass spectrometry, thermal analysis, elemental analysis. Gas absorption measurements (BET method) showed a specific surface area of about 90 m2 · g-1. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Possible role of variant RNA transcripts in the regulation of epidermal growth factor receptor expression in human placenta (1995)
    New York, NY [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) plays an important role in growth and differentiation. The human placenta expresses high levels of the receptor. In the placenta, as in many other human tissues, EGFR is encoded by two RNA transcripts of 5.8 kb and 10.5 kb. The placenta also expresses a putative truncated EGFR transcript of 1.8 kb, which encodes only the ligand binding domain of the receptor. The etiology and role of these variant EGFR transcripts is unknown. Using the human placenta as a model to study this area, we report (1) the relationships among these transcripts suggest that the induction of alternate pathways of EGFR RNA processing is involved in their etiologies; (2) the 10.5 kb transcript may be the principal transcript involved in determining the level of the protein receptor; and (3) the isolation of a soluble protein with characteristics consistent with a translational product corresponding to the 1.8 kb transcript, which may act in regulating the activity of EGFR. Together these results suggest that alternate processing of EGFR RNA into variant transcripts may represent a novel mechanism involved in the regulation of the receptor protein. © 1995 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

    Role of cyclic plastic deformation in the wear of UHMWPE acetabular cups (1995)

    Notes: The mechanisms of wear in ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE) acetabular cups were investigated on both laboratory simulator-tested cups and a clinically retrieved component. Two different levels of wear process were identified: one characterized by the formation and detachment of platelet-like flakes from initial machining marks, and the other by the formation of fine ripples and fibrils by repeated passes of microscopic asperities on the femoral head. Both wear processes could be described by a criterion of critical plastic strain. A theoretical model was developed to account for the generation of the microscopic wear particles based on such a critical strain criterion. Its predictions of the dependence of the UHMWPE wear rate on surface roughness and applied load were in excellent agreement with previously published experimental correlations. © 1995 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

    Identification and characterization of the KlCMD1 gene encoding Kluyveromyces lactis calmodulin (1998)

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: The KlCMD1 gene was isolated from a Kluyveromyces lactis genomic library as a suppressor of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae temperature-sensitive mutant spc110-124, an allele previously shown to be suppressed by elevated copy number of the S. cerevisiae calmodulin gene CMD1. The KlCMD1 gene encodes a polypeptide which is 95% identical to S. cerevisiae calmodulin and 55% identical to calmodulin from Schizosaccharomyces pombe.Complementation of a S. cerevisiae cmd1 deletion mutant by KlCMD1 demonstrates that this gene encodes a functional calmodulin homologue. Multiple sequence alignment of calmodulins from yeast and multicellular eukaryotes shows that the K. lactis and S. cerevisiae calmodulins are considerably more closely related to each other than to other calmodulins, most of which have four functional Ca2+-binding EF hand domains. Thus like its S. cerevisiae counterpart Cmd1p, the KlCMD1 product is predicted to form only three Ca2+-binding motifs. The KlCMD1 sequence has been assigned Accession Number AJ002021 in the EMBL/GenBank database. © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.

    Notes: Since the isolation of the first yeast protein phosphatase genes in 1989, much progress has been made in understanding this important group of proteins. Yeast contain genes encoding all the major types of protein phosphatase found in higher eukaryotes and the ability to use powerful genetic approaches will complement the wealth of biochemical information available from other systems. This review will summarize recent progress in understanding the structure, function and regulation of the PPP family of protein serine-threonine phosphatases, concentrating on the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

    A regulated MET3-GLC7 gene fusion provides evidence of a mitotic role for Saccharomyces cerevisiae protein phosphatase 1 (1995)
    New York, NY [u.a.] : Wiley-Blackwell

    Keywords: Saccharomyces cerevisiae ; GLC7 ; protein phosphatase ; mitosis ; MET3 promoter ; Life and Medical Sciences ; Genetics

    Topics: Biology
    Notes: Saccharomyces cerevisiae possesses a single essential gene (GLC7) encoding protein phosphatase 1 (PP1). Elevated expression of this gene from the GAL1 promoter is highly detrimental to the cell, causing a growth defect and aberrant bud morphology, which leads to cells exhibiting long, extended buds. By comparison, expression of GLC7 from the weaker MET3 promoter was without significant effect on either growth or morphology. However, repression of GLC7 expression from the MET3 promoter in cells where the MET3-GLC7 fusion was the sole source of PP1 resulted in a mitotic delay. Such cultures showed a massive decrease in the rate of proliferation in conjunction with a significant increase in the proportion of large, budded cells. 4′,6-diamidino-2-phenylindole dihydrochloride (DAPI) staining and anti-tubulin immunofluorescence analysis of these cells revealed that many were blocked in mitosis, with a short spindle and DAPI-stained material stretched between the mother and daughter cell within the bud neck. These results support a role for PP1 in the completion of mitosis in S. cerevisiae.

    Notes: Permittivity ∊′ and dielectric loss ∊″ of novolac have been determined in the temperature interval from  - 150 to 150°C and in the frequency interval from 102.5 to 106 Hz. Novolac exhibits a main and a secondary relaxation process. For the main relaxation a master curve of ∊″ was calculated, the shape of which was described by the Havriliak - Negami function (HN). The parameters of the HN fit were interpreted by a model that relates the values to the polymer structure. Furthermore, the temperature dependence of the dielectric relaxation times was analyzed by a WLF approach for the main relaxation and an Arrhenius approach for the secondary relaxation. The dielectric relaxation times of the main relaxation were correlated with the electrical conductivity and the melt viscosity.

    Alfven wave resonances and flow induced by non-linear Alfven waves in a stratified atmosphere (1995)
    In:  Other Sources
    Details
    Publication Date: 2011-08-24
    Description: A nonlinear, time-dependent, ideal MHD code has been developed and used to compute the flow induced by nonlinear Alfven waves propagating in an isothermal, stratified, plane-parallel atmosphere. The code is based on characteristic equations solved in a Lagrangian frame and is highly accurate. Results show that resonance behavior of Alfven waves exists in the presence of a continuous density gradient and that the waves with periods corresponding to resonant peaks exert considerably more force on the medium than off-resonance periods; this leads to enhanced flow. If only off-peak periods are considered, the relationship between the wave period and induced longitudinal velocity shows that short period WKB waves push more on the background medium than longer period, non-WKB, waves. The results also show the development of the longitudinal waves produced by the finite amplitude of the Alfven waves. The longitudinal wave becomes strong as the Alfven wave relative amplitude grows above 10 percent and will lead to strong damping of the Alfven waves.

    A Search for Vector Magnetic Field Variations Associated with the M-Class Flares of 1991 June 10 in AR 6659 (1998)
    In:  CASI
    Details
    Publication Date: 2013-08-29
    Description: A careful analysis of a 6-hour time sequence of vector magnetograms of AR 6659, observed on 1991 June 10 with the MSFC vector magnetograph, has revealed only minor changes in the vector magnetic field azimuths in the vicinity of two M-class flares, and the association of these changes with the flares is not unambiguous. In this paper we present our analysis of the data which includes comparison of vector magnetograms prior to and during the flares, calculation of distributions of the rms variation of the azimuth at each pixel in the field of view of the active region, and examination of the variation with time of the azimuths at every pixel covered by the main flare emissions as observed with the H-alpha telescope coaligned with the vector magnetograph. We also present results of an analysis of evolutionary changes in the azimuth over the field of view of the active region.
