Tn5 mutagenesis of apdA (for antibiotic production) and deletion of
gacA (for global antibiotic and cyanide) resulted in the same pleiotropic phenotype in
Pseudomonas fluorescens (i.e. production of an array of secondary metabolites
including the antibiotics pyrrolnitrin, pyoluteorin, and 2,4-diacetylphloroglucinol as
well as a tryptophan-side-chain oxidase, hydrogen cyanide, and an...
Summer Youth Employment Programs (SYEPs) provide disadvantaged youth
jobs and employment experiences. These federally funded programs meet a practical
need to help adolescents earn money and have positive summer activities. In addition,
federal administrators have implemented program requirements designed to give youth
relevant training for future employment.
One federal requirement...
In order to better characterize linker histone interactions with DNA, avian erythrocyte-specific linker H5 and the trypsin-resistant globular domain of H5 (GH5) were used in DNA binding studies. To begin, H5 displayed a considerably higher binding
affinity for DNA than the isolated globular domain (GH5), supporting the importance of the...

The effects of 2,3,7,8-tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) exposure on hepatic
pyruvate carboxylase (PC) gene expression were investigated in C57BL/6J Ah[superscipt b/b male
mice. A dose-dependent reduction of PC levels and activity occurred in animals given a
single intraperitoneal dose of TCDD in a corn oil carrier. The dose ranged from 1 to...
A novel protocol for the study of protein-nucleic acid interactions is presented and demonstrated
to be feasible. The protocol combines photochemical crosslinking techniques and mass
spectrometric methods into a new strategy for identifying protein domains or amino acid residues
that are in close contact with nucleic acid in protein-nucleic acid...
