Mammalian cysteine dioxygenase (CDO) is a mononuclear non-heme iron protein that catalyzes 2 the conversion of cysteine (Cys) to cysteine sulfinic acid (CSA) by an unclarified mechanism. 3 One structural study revealed a Cys-persulfenate (or Cys-persulfenic acid) formed in the active 4 site, but quantum mechanical calculations have been used...

Spreadsheet created to provide Horticulture Department faculty at Oregon State University with cost comparison information for the journals in which they most often published in 2003-2005. Includes journal titles, cost, impact factor (2004), and publisher information.
Spreadsheet represents the journals in which faculty in the Botany and Plant Pathology Department most often published from 1999-2004. Includes journal title, cost, impact factor, publisher, information about whether the journal is published by a non-profit or commercial publisher, average number of pages over a 5 year period, and cost...
During AY 2009/10 OSU Libraries’ Research and Innovative Services Department (RIS) conducted a pilot project on “environmental scanning.” One of our goals for the year is to develop a process to investigate emerging trends based on a topic and disseminate our findings. Initially we each scanned a segment of the...

Coral reefs form vast ecosystems in tropical oceans that are hotspots for biodiversity and are economically valuable. The ecological success of coral reefs is made possible by the symbiotic relationship between corals and dinoflagellate algae from the family Symbiodiniaceae. In this symbiosis, the algae are found within host gastrodermal cells...
Eukaryotic ribosome biogenesis involves ~200 assembly
factors, but how these contribute to ribosome
maturation is poorly understood. Here, we
identify a network of factors on the nascent 60S subunit
that actively remodels preribosome structure. At its hub is
Rsa4, a direct substrate of the force-generating ATPase
Rea1. We show that...

Canine Transitional Cell Carcinoma (TCC) makes up 2% of all canine cancers and is the most common cancer of the bladder for dogs. Usually diagnosed in its later stages, TCC is difficult to treat, with low survival times. Current diagnosis involves invasive techniques, and mainstream screening tests are often ineffective....

The study related the density of herbivores to the length and density of Prionitis spp. in Oregon’s coastal tidepools. Oregon’s coastal rocky intertidal tidepools contain a variety of species interactions, including algal grazing by herbivores. The red branched algae Prionitis spp. is found throughout the rocky intertidal in the low...
