176 Ehleringer, James R.Population- and family-level variation of brittlebush (Encelia farinosa, Asteraceae) pubescence: its relation to drought and implications for selection in variable environmentsBecause leaf pubescence of the desert shrub Encelia farinosa increases in response to drought and influences photosynthesis and transpiration, we hypothesized that differences in water availability across the range of this species may result in genetic differentiation for pubescence and associated p...Encelia farinose; Absorptance; Adaptation; Asteraceae; Desert; Drought acclimation; Leaf pubescence; maternal family variance; spatiotemporal heterogeneity2003
177 Gesteland, Raymond F.; Atkins, John F.; Baranov, Pavel V.P-site tRNA is a crucial initiator of ribosomal frameshiftingThe expression of some genes requires a high proportion of ribosomes to shift at a specific site into one of the two alternative frames. This utilized frameshifting provides a unique tool for studying reading frame control. Peptidyl-tRNA slippage has been invoked to explain many cases of programmed ...Translation; Recoding; Kinetic Model; Frameshifting; Ribosome2004

179 Smith, Grant D.; Bedrov, Dmitro; Borodin, OlegStructural relaxation and dynamic hetrogeneity in a polymer melt at attractive surfacesMolecular dynamics simulations of polymer melts at flat and structured surfaces reveal that, for the former, slow dynamics and increased dynamic heterogeneity for an adsorbed polymer is due to densification of the polymer in a surface layer, while, for the latter, the energy topography of the sur...Polymer melts; Structural relaxation; Dynamic heterogeneity; Attractive surfaces; Surface energy topography; Polymer densification2003-06
180 Stringfellow, Gerald B.Simulation of self-assembled compositional core-shell structures in In xGa 1-xN nanowiresWe report the simulation of compositional core-shell structure formation in epitaxial InGaN nanowires (NWs) and its dependence on kinetic growth mode and epitaxial relation to substrate, based on atomistic-strain-model Monte Carlo simulations. On a lattice mismatched substrate, the layer-by-layer gr...2012-01-01
181 Yu, ZhouHeterogeneity and dynamics in China's emerging housing marketChina's emerging housing market, as a critical element of ongoing economic reforms, has drawn increasing attention. The complete abandonment of the socialist housing allocation system in the late 1990s has led to profound changes in housing distribution and consumption in urban China.

183 Eisenman, Patricia A.; Symons, John David; White, Andrea T.Eccentric strain at long muscle length evokes the repeated bout effect.The repeated bout effect (RBE) is a phenomenon characterized by less delayed onset muscle soreness (DOMS) and torque deficit after the second of 2 separate eccentric exercise bouts. Previous investigators have reported that shifting of optimum angle after an initial bout of eccentric exercise mediat...Delayed Onset; Muscle Soreness; Popped Sarcomere; Exercise; Optimum Angle2005-11-19
184 Henderson, Thomas C.Monte Carlo sensor networksBiswas et al. [1] introduced a probabilistic approach to inference with limited information in sensor networks. They represented the sensor network as a Bayesian network and performed approximate inference using Markov Chain Monte Carlo (MCMC). The goal is to robustly answer queries even under no...Monte Carlo sensor networks; Markov Chain Monte Carlo; MCMC2005-01-20
185 Beckerle, Mary C.Two muscle-specific LIM proteins in DrosophilaThe LIM domain defines a zinc-binding motif found in a growing number of eukaryotic proteins that regulate cell growth and differentiation during development. Members of the cysteine-rich protein (CRP) family of LIM proteins have been implicated in muscle differentiation in vertebrates. Here we r...LIM domains; Mlp60A; Mlp84B; Cysteine-rich proteins1996
186 Poulter, Charles DaleIsopentenyl diphosphate:dimethylallyl diphosphate isomerase. An improved purification of the enzyme and isolation of the gene from Saccharomyces cerevisiae.Isopentenyl diphosphate:dimethylallyl diphosphate isomerase (IPP isomerase) is an enzyme in the isoprenoid biosynthetic pathway which catalyzes the interconversion of the primary five-carbon homoallylic and allylic diphosphate building blocks. We report a substantially improved procedure for purific...Amino Acid Sequence; Base Sequence; Chromatography, Gel; Chromatography, Ion Exchange1989-11-15
187 Poulter, Charles DaleLethal mutations in the isoprenoid pathway of salmonella entericaEssential isoprenoid compounds are synthesized using the 2-C-methyl-D-erythritol 4-phosphate (MEP) pathway in many gram-negative bacteria, some gram-positive bacteria, some apicomplexan parasites, and plant chloroplasts. The alternative mevalonate pathway is found in archaea and eukaryotes, includin...Isoprenoids; Mutation; Bacteria; Antimicrobials2006
188 Ehleringer, James R.Responses of boreal conifers to climate fluctuations: indications from tree-ring widths and carbon isotope analysesSpatial distribution and species composition of the boreal forest are expected to change under predicted climate change scenarios. Current research indicates that water limitations control the southern boundary of the central Canadian boreal forest and temperature limitations control the northern b...Boreal forests; Carbon budget; Picea mariana; Pinus banksiana; Carbon isotopes1998
189 Chapman, David S.Techniques, analysis, and noise in a Salt Lake Valley 4D gravity experimentRepeated high-precision gravity measurements using an automated gravimeter and analysis of time series of 1-Hz samples allowed gravity measurements to be made with an accuracy of 5 μGal or better. Nonlinear instrument drift was removed using a new empirical staircase function built from multiple ...Gravity measurements2008
190 Blackwelder, Eliot; Hubbs, Carl L.; Miller, Robert R.; Antevs, ErnstThe Great Basin with emphasis on glacial and postglacial timesThe Great Basin is a physiographic province the boundaries o f which are somewhat indefinite. Roughly it lies between the Sierra Nevada on the west and the Wasatch Mountains on the east, but its tributary valleys extend over into Wyoming. To the north it grades into the Columbia lava plateau, and to...1948-06-30
191 Christensen, Douglas A.; Horch, Kenneth W.Accelerated dual-degree BS/MS program - experience with the first three yearsWe have initiated a pilot program that accelerates the studies of a small group of highly qualified students early in their college careers and allows them to earn both a bachelor's degree and a master's degree in about four years after starting college. It does this by introducing them early to res...Accelerated dual-degree program2004
