Normann, Richard A. | Oscillations in rod and horizontal cell membrane potential: evidence for feed-back to rods in the vertebrate retina | 1. Rods and horizontal cells were studied with intracellular recordings in the retina of the toad, Bufo marinus; 161 cells were from the eyecup preparation and thirty were from the isolated perfused retina. 2. Of these cells, 39% exhibited either transient or sustained oscillations of membrane poten... | Retina; Photoreceptors; Toads; Adaptation, Ocular | 1976 |

Normann, Richard A. | Control of retinal sensitivity. I. Light and dark adaptation of vertebrate rods and cones | Rods and cones in Necturus respond with graded hyperpolarization to test flashes spanning about 3.5 log units of intensity. Steady background levels hyperpolarize the rods, and the rod responses become progressively smaller as background level is increased. In cones, higher background levels reduce... | Retina;Light and Dark Adaptation; Recepters; Bipolars; Ganglion Cells | 1974 |

Gesteland, Raymond F.; Weiss, Robert B. | Efficient shine- Dalgarno sequence but not translation is necessary for LacZ mRNA stability in Escherichia coli | The 5' ends of many bacterial transcripts are important in determining mRNA stability. A series of Shine-Dalgarno (SD) sequence changes showed that the complementarity of the SD sequence to the anti-SD sequence of 16S rRNA correlates with lacZ mRNA stability in Escherichia coli.

Normann, Richard A. | Functional reorganization of primary visual cortex induced by electrical stimulation in the cat. | Compared to the high degree of plasticity observed in a juvenile, mature sensory cortices have long been held to be immutable but, recently, researchers have suggested some plasticity persists in the mature cortex.
