832 Smith, Ken R.Biased estimation in policy research: an illustrative example of ridge regression in a health system modelThe paper develops an argument for the necessity of examining individual coefficients in policy models. As a result of this need, it is posited that something other than OLS estimators should be used since they are inflated and have extremely large variances when multicollinearity is present. Furthe...Policy models; Health systems; Ridge regression1980

835 Baehr, WolfgangBilateral retinal and brain tumors in transgenic mice expressing simian virus 40 large T antigen under control of the human interphotoreceptor retinoid-binding protein promoterWe have previously shown that postnatal expression of the viral oncoprotein SV40 T antigen in rod photoreceptors (transgene MOT1), at a time when retinal cells have withdrawn from the mitotic cycle, leads to photoreceptor cell death (Al-Ubaidi et al., 1992. Proc. Natl. Acad. Sci. USA. 89:1194-1198)....Simian virus 40; Retinol-Binding Proteins; Promoter Regions (Genetics)1992
836 Goller, FranzBilateral syringeal contributions to song in the zebra finchAlthough central control of song production has been investigated extensively in the zebra finch (Taeniopygia guttata), much less is known about peripheral vocal motor dynamics during song.Electromyographic activity; Sound souces; Unilateral2004
837 Bromley, Benjamin C.Binary disruption by massive black holes: hypervelocity stars, S stars, and tidal disruption eventsWe examine whether disrupted binary stars can fuel black hole growth. In this mechanism, tidal disruption produces a single hypervelocity star (HVS) ejected at high velocity and a former companion star bound to the black hole. After a cluster of bound stars forms, orbital diffusion allows the black ...2012-01-01
838 Hansen, Charles D.Binary-swap and shear-warp volume renderer on the T3DLarge parallel machines give today's scientists the ability to compute very large simulations which may generate equally large data. Not only does having visualization tools on the parallel system allow the scientist to take advantage of the large memory to visualize the data, the processing power a...Volume rendering; Binary-swap1995
839 Hansen, Charles D.Binary-swap volumetric rendering on the T3DThis paper presents a data distributed parallel raytraced volume rendering algorithm and its implementation on the CRI T3D. This algorithm distributes the data and the computational load to individual processing units to achieve fast and high-quality rendering of high-resolution data. The volume dat...Volume rendering; Binary-swap; Ray tracing; Parallel rendering1995
840 Hawkes, KristenBinumarien color categoriesThis paper has two aims. The first is to describe an ethnographically new system of color classification, Binumarien, a non-Austronesian or Papuan language of the Eastern Central Highlands of New Guinea2. In this connection we are particularly interested in relating our data to the Berlin and Kay (1...Binumarien; Binumariens1975
841 Minteer, Shelley D.Bio-solar cells incorporating catalase for stabilization of thylakoid bioelectrodes during direct photoelectrocatalysisThylakoid membranes have been proposed for electrochemical solar energy conversion, but they have been plagued with short term instability. In this paper, thylakoid membranes extracted from Spinacia oleracea were physically adsorbed onto Toray paper electrodes with and without catalase, followed by ...2012-01-01
842 Beckerle, Mary C.Biochemical and molecular characterization of the chicken cysteine-rich protein, a developmentally regulated LIM-domain protein that is associated with the actin cytoskeletonLIM domains are present in a number of proteins including transcription factors, a protooncogene product, and the adhesion plaque protein zyxin. The LIM domain exhibits a characteristic arrangement of cysteine and histidine residues and represents a novel zinc binding sequence (Michelsen et al., ...Zyxin; Cysteine-rich proteins; cCRP; Actin; LIM domains1994
843 Olivera, Baldomero M.Biochemical characterization of ?M-RIIIJ, a Kv1.2 channel blocker: evaluation of cardioprotective effects of ?M-conotoxinsConus snail (Conus) venoms are a valuable source of pharmacologically active compounds; some of the peptide toxin families from the snail venoms are known to interact with potassium channels.

846 Olivera, Baldomero M.Biochemical studies of ω-conotoxin GVIA; a peptide toxin inhibiting voltage-sensitive Ca++ channelsThe fish-hunting cone snails use their venom to quickly paralyze their more agile prey. In the last few years, our laboratories have carried out a program of analyzing biologically active components present in the fish-hunting cone snail venoms (Cruz et al. 1985; Olivera et al. 1985). We have concen...Conotoxins; Calcium channels; Conus geographus; Venom1987
847 Horvath, Martin P.Biochemistry of Cone Snail toxin activationCone snails use venom to capture prey for food and for defense against predators.
