REF Select, expert system software, has been developed to assist in the selection of optimal restriction endonucleases for restriction endonuclease fingerprinting (REF), a method for rapid and sensitive mutation screening of long DNA segments (1-2 kb). The REF method typically involves six separate digestions with up to two restriction endnonucleases used in each digestion. If done manually, pe...

We investigated how leaf hydraulic conductance (K(leaf)) of loblolly pine trees is influenced by soil nitrogen amendment (N) in stands subjected to ambient or elevated CO(2) concentrations (CO(2)(a) and CO(2)(e), respectively). We also examined how K(leaf) varies with changes in reference leaf water potential (Psi(leaf-ref)) and stomatal conductance (g(s-ref)) calculated at vapour pressure defi...

OBJECTIVE The aim of this project was to test the hypothesis that redox factor 1 (Ref-1) was a critical upstream determinant of NF-kappaB-dependent survival signaling pathways in the vessel wall. METHODS AND RESULTS Aortas from hemizygous transgenic mice harboring a single allele of Ref-1 exhibited a significant loss in NF-kappaB DNA binding activity. The NF-kappaB-dependent survival gene A20...

The following Standard ML code can be used for solving constraint systems. The code assumes that phase 1 described earlier has been performed during constraint generation. The imperative aspects of Standard ML have been used a lot and we believe that this must be done for the complexity analysis to hold. For readability we have used standard list notation for the dependency lists although our c...

As you will see from the reports, all referees express interest in the findings reported in your manuscript, although they also raise a number of concerns that will have to be addressed in full before they can support publication. In particular, ref #1 (who also saw the earlier submission of this study) finds that the data supporting the model for translational repression as the main role for N...

P62 has been proposed to mark ubiquitinated protein bodies for autophagic degradation. We report that the Drosophila melanogaster p62 orthologue, Ref(2)P, is a regulator of protein aggregation in the adult brain. We demonstrate that Ref(2)P localizes to age-induced protein aggregates as well as to aggregates caused by reduced autophagic or proteasomal activity. A similar localization to protein...
