Influenza A virus reservoirs in animals have provided novel genetic elements leading to the
emergence of global pandemics in humans. Most influenza A viruses circulate in waterfowl, …

Based on the map location of the aniridia (AN) locus in human chromosomal band 11p13,
we have cloned a candidate AN cDNA (D11S812E) that is completely or partially deleted in …

Human red blood cell membranes were used as a model system to determine if the systematic
evolution of ligands by exponential enrichment (SELEX) methodology, an in vitro protocol …

Transition nuclear proteins (TPs), the major proteins found in chromatin of condensing
spermatids, are believed to be important for histone displacement and chromatin condensation …

During mammalian spermiogenesis, major restructuring of chromatin takes place. In the
mouse, the histones are replaced by the transition proteins, TP1 and TP2, which are in turn …

Of all terrestrial ecosystems, peatlands store carbon most effectively in long-term scales of
millennia. However, many peatlands have been drained for peat extraction or agricultural use. …

Estimates of cancer risks posed to space-flight crews by exposure to high atomic number,
high-energy (HZE) ions are subject to considerable uncertainty because epidemiological data …

Female BALB/c mice are unusually radiosensitive and more susceptible than C57BL/6 and
other tested inbred mice to ionizing radiation (IR)-induced mammary tumors. This breast …

Estimates of cancer risks posed to space-flight crews by exposure to high atomic number,
high-energy (HZE) ions are subject to considerable uncertainty because epidemiological data …

Drained peatlands are significant sources of the greenhouse gas (GHG) carbon dioxide.
Rewetting is a proven strategy used to protect carbon stocks; however, it can lead to increased …
