Two spectrally different species of holotryptophanase
were obtained from fluorescence and circular dichroism
measurements. One is predominant in solutions containing
certain enzyme activating monovalent cations while the
other predominates in solutions of various inhibiting monovalent
cations. Relative magnitudes of the cation sensitive
fluorescent intensity maxima or circular dichroism
maxima are...
Clashes of ideology are all around us, from our computer and television screens to our composition classrooms, and they merit attention within the composition classroom. This thesis examines the justifications and pedagogies that scholars in rhetoric and composition use to infuse issues of ideology and social ethics into writing instruction...

Climate change is impacting a wide range of global systems, with polar ecosystems experiencing the most rapid change. While climate impacts affect lower trophic level and short-lived species most directly, it is less clear how long-lived and mobile species will respond to rapid polar warming, as they may have the...
This plan will not be legally binding in any way; its role is to be viewed as a working document that serves as a planning tool for the fire and land managers of Baker County (see the Promulgation Statement on p. i and the Signature Page on p. ii of...
Quinolinate (QUIN) is an endogenous neurotoxic product of the kynurenine
pathway of tryptophan metabolism. Quinolinate is a selective agonist of the NMDA
family of glutamate receptors and, as such, may play a role in the pathology of a number
of major central nervous system (CNS) disorders. These include both chronic...
Circadian clocks are endogenous molecular mechanisms that coordinate daily rhythms in gene expression, cellular activities, and physiological functions with external day/night cycles. Breakdown of circadian rhythms such as sleep/wake cycles is associated with the onset of several neurological diseases; however, it is not clear whether disruption of rhythms is a...
