(2816) Proposal to conserve the name Echinocactus williamsii Lem. ex Salm‐Dyck ( Lophophora williamsii ) against E. williamsianus Lem. ( Cactaceae )

Rapid and sensitive detection of Lophophora williamsii by loop-mediated isothermal amplification.

We have developed a convenient method for the detection of Lophophora williamsii using loop-mediated isothermal amplification (LAMP). We designed six species-specific primers for L. williamsii, including two loop primers. This L. williamsii-specific primer set was used for LAMP of total DNA extracted from L. williamsii and from L. diffusa. Real-time monitoring of LAMP was achieved by measuring ...

Cam-lem Processing: Materials Flexibility

The cut-then-stack paradigm of computer-aided manufacturing of laminated engineering materials (CAM-LEM) offers choice of feedstock material, ease of handling finely divided (and therefore sinterable) powders, and the ability to mix materials. This combination of features was exploited to process fluidic devices. CAM-LEM processing was used to render the Part in aluminum oxide, silicon nitride,...

LEM-3 – A LEM Domain Containing Nuclease Involved in the DNA Damage Response in C. elegans

The small nematode Caenorhabditis elegans displays a spectrum of DNA damage responses similar to humans. In order to identify new DNA damage response genes, we isolated in a forward genetic screen 14 new mutations conferring hypersensitivity to ionizing radiation. We present here our characterization of lem-3, one of the genes identified in this screen. LEM-3 contains a LEM domain and a GIY nuc...
