Isolation and characteristics of the DNA from nuclear polyhedrosis virus

Creator:: Carnegie, John William
Abstract:: The genome of the nuclear polyhedrosis virus which infects the larvae of the tussock moth, the lepidopteran, Hemerocampa pseudotsugata, was isolated, identified as deoxyribonucleic acid, and characterized in terms of its physical and biological properties. An isolation procedure for the viral DNA was established which consisted of the following steps:...

Materials associated with the DNA fraction of Bacillus subtilis W168

Creator:: Laudermilk, Patricia Joan
Abstract:: The purpose of this research was to determine if a basic protein was associated with the DNA of Bacillus subtilis W168, and to determine if there was a difference in the amount and type of protein associated with the DNA at different times during the growth cycle of the organism....

Host cell nuclear involvement in vaccinia virus replication

Creator:: Villarreal, Elcira C.
Abstract:: It was previously shown that vaccinia virus is unable to complete its replicative cycle in cells that have been subjected to cytochalasin-B mediated enucleation prior to infection. Likewise, in the presence of the drug α-amanitin, a potent inhibitor of host RNA polymerase II but not of viral transcription, the replication...

The association of DNA with other cellular materials in Escherichia coli lysates

Creator:: Porter, Bruce Wallace
Abstract:: The association of other materials with DNA has been studied extensively in higher organisms and more recently in bacteria. However, investigation of these complexes in bacteria have for the most part been restricted to the study of a specific function this association may serve, or a specific kind of association....

Development of a Bioluminescent Sensor of Isothiocyanates through Genetic Modification of Pseudomonas fluorescens and Validation on Crude Plant Materials

Creator:: Hogaboam, Octavia L.
Abstract:: Isothiocyanates (ITCs) are produced by roots in a variety of agricultural plants, such as those within the Brassicaceae family. ITCs act as fumigants, and are used to control microbial plant pathogens by adding brassica-origin seed meal to soil prior to replanting. However, there is suggestion that the presence of residual...

Significance of pigments in radiation resistance of Micrococcus radiodurans

Creator:: Krabbenhoft, Kenneth Louis
Abstract:: An ecological study of a microorganism similar to that isolated in 1956 and designated as Micrococcus radiodurans indicated that the organism could be isolated from several different environments. By taking advantage of its radio-resistivity, high levels of gamma radiation were used in the isolation procedures to inactivate most of the...

Photosynthetic Energy Allocation Strategies of Thalassiosira pseudonana During Light Limited Growth

Creator:: Fisher, Nerissa L.
Abstract:: Photosynthetic energy allocation strategies were investigated in the marine diatom, Thalassiosira pseudonana, grown under a wide range of light limitation. Steady-state, continuous cultures were established at three light-limited growth rates. Simultaneous measurements of photosynthetic activity were made that targeted different points in photosynthetic energy flow from gross to net photosynthesis....

Novel Experimental Designs and Mathematical Models to Study Fecal Indicator Bacteria Persistence in Surface Water

Creator:: Brooks, Lauren
Abstract:: High counts of fecal indicators, used to signal the potential presence of pathogens associated with untreated waste, result in the classification of water bodies throughout the United States as impaired. Nonpoint sources of unknown origin that contribute to fecal contamination make management of impaired waters challenging, as they are difficult...

Characterization of the Oregon sockeye salmon virus

Creator:: Wingfield, William Harry
Abstract:: Characterization of a virus requires that its physical, biochemical and biological properties be determined. In this study the Oregon sockeye salmon virus was characterized. It was isolated in the fall of 1958 from juvenile sockeye salmon, Oncorhynchus nerka, being reared at the Oregon Fish Commission's Willamette River Hatchery. When inoculated...

A comparison of radiation induced lipid changes in Micrococcus radiodurans, Sarcina lutea, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa

Creator:: Ley, Ronald Douglas
Abstract:: Quantity variations in pigments and lipid classes were determined following γ-irradiation of Micrococcus radiodurans, Sarcina lutea, and Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Pigmentation was determined by extraction with organic solvents and measured as optical density at 475 mμ for M. radiodurans and S. lutea, and 410 mμ for Ps. E aetuginosa. Pigments of...
