The Journal of Cell Biology instituted electronic submission of manuscripts in December, 2001. Our brief experience in handling the review process electronically has raised an important issue regarding the manipulation of digital images that I would like to bring to the attention of the members of the cell biology community, who are our authors and reviewers. Our concern is not that the manipul...

The overall purpose of Benzer’s work was to measure map distances between very closely spaced point mutations. To add strength to his conclusions he chose to examine point mutations within a single gene. The ultimate results of this work appear in Figure 7.21(c) in your textbook. The purpose of Figure 7.21 and parts (a) and (b) of Figure 7.20 is to provide the experimental background so that th...

We report the high frequency performance of GaAs/AlGaAs multiple quantum well (MQW) based AsymmetricFabry Perot (ASFP) reflection modulator. The measured frequency response bandwidth of the modulator was ~600 MHz at an applied voltage of only 5 V at a wavelength of ~ 854 nm. The differential contrast of the modula-tor was 4.0 at an applied voltage of 12.5 at a wavelength of 863 nm.

1. Geometry of the geodesic curvature vector. 2. Geometry of the constant velocity projection. 3. A simple planar example. The nal geodesic curve is as straight line as expected. (a) Top view (the ^ C curve) of the process. (b) The nal geodesic curve is presented on the 3D surface. 4. Example with an \egg" box surface. The initial curve (^ C 0) is given by a sin function on the (x; y){plane. 5....
