Example Sentences:
(1) Amazon reef map Its discovery came as a complete surprise, says co-author Patricia Yager, a professor of oceanography and climate change at the University of Georgia.
(2) Previously, we demonstrated that the synthetic estrogens mestranol and ethinyl estradiol (EE) were strong promoters of hepatocarcinogenesis initiated in intact female rats by prior treatment with diethylnitrosamine (J. D. Yager, H. A. Campbell, D. S. Longnecker, B. D. Roebuck, and M. C. Benoit, Cancer Res.
(3) Under approximately physiological conditions, the transcription termination factor rho from Escherichia coli is a hexamer of planar hexagonal geometry [Geiselmann, J., Yager, T. D., Gill, S. C., Calmettes, P., & von Hippel, P. H. (1992) Biochemistry (preceding paper in this issue)].
(4) This "breakage" of symmetry has implications for the molecular mechanism of rho, because an asymmetric structure can lead to directional helicase activity by invoking directionally distinct RNA binding and release reactions (see Geiselmann, J., Yager, T.D., & von Hippel, P.H., 1992c, Protein Sci.
(5) Hepatocytes, which have been shown to demonstrate a pattern of inhibition and subsequent recovery of DNA synthesis following UV irradiation similar to that seen in vivo upon treatment with N-OH-AAF (Zurlo and Yager, 1984), were cultured under conditions that promote replicative DNA synthesis.
(6) In subsequent studies designed to elucidate possible mechanisms of promotion by EE, we investigated whether the antiestrogen tamoxifen was antagonistic to the effects of EE (J. D. Yager, B. D. Roebuck, T. L. Paluszcyk, and V. A. Memoli, Carcinogenesis 1986; 7:2007-2014).
(7) In the following paper in this issue [Geiselmann, J., Seifried, S. E., Yager, T. D., Liang, C., & von Hippel, P. H. (1992)], these results are combined with information on symmetry, subunit interactions, and packing geometry to obtain a model of the quaternary structure of the functional rho hexamer.
(8) These findings are consistent with the proposed role of ICP0 in reactivation of herpes simplex virus from latency (D. A. Leib, D. M. Coen, C. L. Bogard, K. A. Hicks, D. R. Yager, D. M. Knipe, K. L. Tyler, and P. A. Schaffer, J. Virol.
(9) It was found that the new methods, the method of Kleiner and Brounet-Yager, and that of Usategui-Gomez et al., show a high correlation with respect to the Tuppy and Nesvadba method (modified by Klimek) the usefulness of which has already been proved.
