The sequence of marine and marginal-marine silts and sands of the US Middle Atlantic Coastal
Plain preserves a relatively complete record of Pliocene sea-level highstands. A general …

… Minor growth increments occur sporadically throughout the shell in many Spisula specimens
(DS Jones and DE Krantz, pers. obs.). The accepted belief that these marks represent …

The model genetic organism Drosophila melanogaster, commonly known as the fruit fly,
uses many of the same neurotransmitters as mammals and very similar mechanisms of …

The exocytotic release of neurotransmitters requires active transport into synaptic vesicles
and other types of secretory vesicles. Members of the SLC18 family perform this function for …

… sion calculations, indicating that IPE measures only DA in the cell body (see Experimental
Procedures), that is, the number of DA storage vesicles in the soma might be insufficient to de…

… Blocks were sectioned in an RMC Ultra microtome at ∼70 nm thickness with a Delaware
diamond knife (Wilmington, DE) and poststained for 1 hr in Reynolds lead citrate and uranyl …

Cross sections of two Mercenaria mercenaria shells, one modern and one Pleistocene, and
one modern Spisula solidissima shell were analyzed for trace metals using laser ablation-…

While the transporters that accumulate classical neurotransmitters in synaptic vesicles have
been identified, little is known about how their expression regulates synaptic transmission. …

We have established a new simple behavioral paradigm in Drosophila melanogaster to
determine how genes and the environment influence the behavior of flies within a social group. …

Mutations in human parkin have been identified in familial Parkinson's disease and in some
sporadic cases. Here, we report that expression of mutant but not wild-type human parkin in …
