The history of entomopathogenic nematology is briefly reviewed. Topic selections include early descriptions of members
of Steinernema and Heterorhabditis, how only morphology was originally used to distinguish between the species; descriptions of the
symbiotic bacteria and elucidating their role in the nematode- insect complex, including antibiotic properties, phase variants, and...
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...
