Beckerle, Mary C. | Adhesion plaque protein, talin, is phosphorylated in vivo in chicken embryo fibroblasts exposed to the tumor-promoting phorbol ester | Talin is a high molecular weight phosphoprotein that is localized at adhesion plaques. We have found that talin phosphorylation increases 3.0-fold upon exposure of chicken embryo fibroblasts to the tumor-promoting phorbol ester, phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate. | Talin; Vinculin; Chicken embryo fibroblasts | 1990 |

Olivera, Baldomero M.; Parks, Thomas N. | Conantokin-T: a γ-carboxyglutamate containing peptide with N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist activity | Conantokin-T, a 21-amino acid peptide which induces sleep-like symptoms in young mice was purified from the venom of the fish-hunting cone snail, Conus tulipa. The amino acid sequence of the peptide was determined and verified by chemical synthesis. The peptide has 4 residues of the modified amino ... | Conotoxins; Conantokin-T; N-methyl-D-aspartate antagonist; Conus tulipa | 1990 |

Olivera, Baldomero M. | DNA-topoisomerase modification | The first reports of topoisomerase modification were published in 1982 and 1983 (Mills et al. 1982; Durban et al. 1983; Ferro et al. 1983; Jongstra-Bilen et al. 1983). Although a wide variety of posttranslational modifications of DNA topoisomerases may occur, this chapter focuses only on phosphoryl... | Poly(ADP-ribosylation); Serine residues | 1990 |

Blair, David F. | MotA protein of E. coli is a proton-conducting component of the flagellar motor | A number of mutants of motA, a gene necessary for flagellar rotation in E. coli, were isolated and characterized. Many mutations were dominant, owing to competition between functional and nonfunctional MotA for a limited number of sites on the flagellar motor. A new class of mutant was discovered... | MotA protein; MotA gene; Flagellar motor; Proton-conducting | 1990 |

Potts, Wayne K. | Surprisingly uneven distribution of the T cell receptor Vβ repertoire in wild mice | Heterodimeric TCRa/Bs are made up of combinations of V D, J, and C elements. The majority of laboratory inbred mouse strains are of the VBh haplotype and have at least 20 VB genes from which to construct TCRs (1, 2); however, a number of strains have been reported to have deletions of large portion... | | 1990 |

Bohs, Lynn A. | Systematics of Solanum section Allophyllum (Solanaceae) | Three species of Solarium are included in a new section, Solarium sect. Allophyllum. Two of the species, S. allophyllum and S. mapiriense, have been previously known; the third, S. morellifolium Bohs, is described as new. The combination of characters exhibited by members of this section, such as un... | Solanum section Allophyllum; Solanum allophyllum; Solanum morellifolium; Solanum mapiriense | 1990 |
