126 Jorgensen, ErikWormwholes: a commentary on K. F. Schaffner's "Genes, behavior, and developmental emergentismAlthough Caenorhabditis elegans was chosen and modified to be an organism that would facilitate a reductionist program for neurogenetics, recent research has provided evidence for properties that are emergent from the neurons. While neurogenetic advances have been made using C elegans which may be u...Organism; Neurons; Genotype1998
127 Olivera, Baldomero M.; Hillyard, David R.; Gray, William Robertĸ-Conotoxin PVIIA is a peptide inhibiting the Shaker K+ channelĸ-Conotoxin PVIIA (k-PVIIA), a 27-amino acid toxin from Conus purpurascens venom that inhibits the Shaker potassium channel, was chemically synthesized in a biologically active form. The disulfide connectivity of the peptide was determined. ĸ-Conotoxin PVIIA has the following structure.Conotoxins; k-Conotoxin PVIIA; Conus purpurascens1998
128 Olivera, Baldomero M.; ; McIntosh, J. Michaelα-Conotoxin AuIB selective blocks α3ß4 nicotinic acetylcholine receptors and nicotine-evoked norepinephrine releaseNeuronal nicotinic acetylcholine receptors (nAChRs) with putative α3ß4-subunits have been implicated in the mediation of signaling in various systems, including ganglionic transmission peripherally and nicotine-evoked neurotransmitter release centrally. However, progress in the characterization of...Conotoxins; a-Conotoxin AuIB; Norepinephrine release1998
129 Olivera, Baldomero M.; Gray, William Robert; Hillyard, David R.μ-Conotoxin PIIIA, a new peptide for discriminating among tetrodotoxin-sensitive Na channel subtypesWe report the characterization of a new sodium channel blocker, m-conotoxin PIIIA (m-PIIIA). The peptide has been synthesized chemically and its disulfide bridging pattern determined.Conotoxins; m-Conotoxin PIIIA; Sodium channel blockers1998
