Creator:: Jonko, Alexandra K., Shell, Karen M., Sanderson, Benjamin M., and Danabasoglu, Gokhan
Abstract:: Climate feedbacks vary strongly among climate models and continue to represent a major source of uncertainty in estimates of the response of climate to anthropogenic forcings. One method to evaluate feedbacks in global climate models is the radiative kernel technique, which is well suited for model intercomparison studies because of...

Abstract:: BACKGROUND: Simple and effective cryopreservation of human oocytes would have an enormous impact on the financial and ethical constraints of human assisted reproduction. Recently, studies have demonstrated the potential for cryopreservation in an ice-free glassy state by equilibrating oocytes with high concentrations of cryoprotectants (CPAs) and rapidly cooling to liquid...

The effects of taurolidine alone and in combination with doxorubicin or carboplatin in canine osteosarcoma in vitro

Creator:: Marley, Kevin, Helfand, Stuart C., Edris, Wade A., Mata, John E., Gitelman, Alix I., Medlock, Jan, and Seguin, Bernard
Abstract:: Background: Osteosarcoma (OS) affects over 8000 dogs/year in the United States. The disease usually arises in the appendicular skeleton and metastasizes to the lung. Dogs with localized appendicular disease benefit from limb amputation and chemotherapy but most die within 6–12 months despite these treatments. Taurolidine, a derivative of taurine, has...

Abstract:: BACKGROUND: Few studies have examined the broad health effects of occupational exposures in flight attendants apart from disease-specific morbidity and mortality studies. We describe the health status of flight attendants and compare it to the U.S. population. In addition, we explore whether the prevalence of major health conditions in flight...

Unraveling Ultrafast Photoinduced Proton Transfer Dynamics in a Fluorescent Protein Biosensor for Ca²⁺ Imaging

Creator:: Tang, Longteng, Liu, Weimin, Wang, Yanli, Zhao, Yongxin, Oscar, Breland G., Campbell, Robert E., and Fang, Chong
Abstract:: Imaging Ca²⁺ dynamics in living systems holds great potential to advance neuroscience and cellular biology. G-GECO1.1 is an intensiometric fluorescent protein Ca²⁺-biosensor with a Thr-Tyr-Gly chromophore. The protonated chromophore emits green upon photoexcitation via excited-state proton transfer (ESPT). Upon Ca²⁺ binding, a significant population of the chromophores becomes deprotonated. It...

Development of a next-generation NIL library in Arabidopsis thaliana for dissecting complex traits

Creator:: Fletcher, Richard S., Mullen, Jack L., Yoder, Seth, Bauerle, William L., Reuning, Gretchen, Sen, Saunak, Meyer, Eli, Juenger, Thomas E., and McKay, John K.
Abstract:: Background: The identification of the loci and specific alleles underlying variation in quantitative traits is an important goal for evolutionary biologists and breeders. Despite major advancements in genomics technology, moving from QTL to causal alleles remains a major challenge in genetics research. Near-isogenic lines are the ideal raw material for...

Altered precipitation regime affects the function and composition of soil microbial communities on multiple time scales

Creator:: Zeglin, L. H., Bottomley, Peter J., Jumpponen, A., Rice, C. W., Arango, M., Lindsley, A., McGowan, A., Mfombep, P., and Myrold, D. D.
Abstract:: Climate change models predict that future precipitation patterns will entail lower-frequency but larger rainfall events, increasing the duration of dry soil conditions. Resulting shifts in microbial C cycling activity could affect soil C storage. Further, microbial response to rainfall events may be constrained by the physiological or nutrient limitation stress...

Assessing De Novo transcriptome assembly metrics for consistency and utility

Creator:: O’Neil, Shawn T. and Emrich, Scott J.
Abstract:: Background: Transcriptome sequencing and assembly represent a great resource for the study of non-model species, and many metrics have been used to evaluate and compare these assemblies. Unfortunately, it is still unclear which of these metrics accurately reflect assembly quality. Results: We simulated sequencing transcripts of Drosophila melanogaster. By assembling...
