…, JC Fisher, K Hornik, R Ihaka, CD McWhite… - arXiv preprint arXiv …, 2019 - arxiv.org
The R package colorspace provides a flexible toolbox for selecting individual colors or color
palettes, manipulating these colors, and employing them in statistical graphics and data …

[PDF][PDF] A chloroplast protein atlas reveals punctate structures and spatial organization of biosynthetic pathways

…, AT Wilson, M Onishi, J Hu, DJ Schnell, CD McWhite… - Cell, 2023 - cell.com
Chloroplasts are eukaryotic photosynthetic organelles that drive the global carbon cycle.
Despite their importance, our understanding of their protein composition, function, and spatial …

Achaete-scute homologue-1 (ASH1) stimulates migration of lung cancer cells through Cdk5/p35 pathway

…, HC Pant, X Wang, ND Amin, CD McWhite… - Molecular biology of …, 2012 - Am Soc Cell Biol
Our previous data suggested that the human basic helix–loop–helix transcription factor
