There is a continual influx of heavy metal contaminants and pollutants into the biosphere from both natural and anthropogenic sources. A complex variety of abiotic and biotic processes affects their s
Tyr-SV40E transgenic mice are specifically susceptible to melanoma due to expression of the oncogene in pigment cells. Mice of the more susceptible lines die young of early-onset eye melanomas, when s
The herpesvirus entry mediator C (HveC), previously known as poliovirus receptor-related protein 1 (PRR1), and the herpesvirus Ig-like receptor (HIgR) are the bona fide receptors employed by herpes si
We have recorded electrical activity from two identified synaptically coupled mechanosensory interneurons in the abdominal nervous system of the crayfish Orconectes limosus and have studied their resp
The adenovirus major late transcription unit accounts for most virus-specific transcription late after infection. All mRNAs expressed from this unit carry a short spliced leader, the so-called tripart
