(1) Adenosine deaminase (ADA) activity was localized at the surface membrane of the mouse C-1300 neuroblastoma by incubation of a confluent tissue culture monolayer grown on Lux-Permanox cultureware with 6-chloropurine ribonucleoside (CPR).
(2) Strains with transposon-generated lux::lacZ gene fusions were used to analyze control of the transcription of these regions.
(3) For 1-4 weeks after surgery they were exposed to either 1000 lux for 24 hr or 80 lux for 48 hr.
(4) Flash stimuli with the maximum illuminance, 30,000 lux, were given at increasing levels of illuminance in 0.6 log U steps for 13 levels of intensity.
(5) The lux genes required for expression of luminescence have been cloned from a terrestrial bacterium, Xenorhabdus luminescens, and the nucleotide sequences of the luxA and luxB genes coding for the alpha and beta subunits of luciferase determined.
(6) To assess whether developmental state, as opposed to species, was a factor determining the differences in vulnerability to injury, hearts from immature rats and adult rabbits were perfused with various concentrations of rose bengal (250-2500 nmol.litre-1) with the intensity of illumination (1400-6600 Lux) adjusted to account for the size of the heart.
(7) A simple method based upon the use of a Tn5 derivative, Tn5-Lux, has been devised for the introduction and stable expression of the character of bioluminescence in a variety of gram-negative bacteria.
(8) In humans, the light intensity must probably exceed 2000 lux to be optimal.
(9) Ethylenediamine-di(o-hydroxyphenyl acetic acid) did not affect luciferase induction in E. coli strains with wild-type iron assimilation (ED8654) or impaired iron assimilation (RW193) bearing pJE202 (a plasmid with functional V. fischeri lux genes), suggesting that the genes responsible for the iron effect are missing or substituted in these clones.
(10) Bromohydrins (12, 13, and 14), which were oxidatively damaged products of thymidine nucleotides, were repaired by the action of sunlight (2700 lux) or heat via a radical mechanism to regenerate the original nucleotides (8,9, and 10).
(11) In humans only bright light (2500 lux) appears to be an effective circadian zeitgeber.
(12) In the second part, caries was simulated by grooves of increasing depth in aluminum blocks of a thickness equivalent in radiopacity to enamel and the detectability assessed beneath differing thicknesses of three representative composite resins, P-30, Brilliant Lux and Occlusin.
(13) The rightward operon contains luxI, which together with luxR and the 218 base pairs separating the two operons comprises the primary regulatory circuit, and the five structural genes, luxC, luxD, luxA, luxB and luxE, which are required for the bioluminescence activity.
(14) The genes required for bioluminescence (the lux genes) are organized in two divergently transcribed operons (luxR-luxICDABEG).
(15) The tests were performed between 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m., with light (700-1400 lux) and in the dark (1.4-2.8 lux) and behavior was recorded by the time sampling technique.
(16) The protocol consisted of a baseline control night (customary sleep schedule) followed by three shortened nights with a rising at 05.00 and a 2 h exposure to either dim light (50 lux; one week) or bright light (2000 lux; other week).
(17) Up to 12-14 weeks of age, the .11 lux intensity was superior to the other treatments.
(18) Under LD 20:4, the intensity of L was decreased to 1 lux for 1 hr (D pulse).
(19) At low levels of illumination (30 lux), this effect was similar to that seen in anesthetized animals but was diminished under higher ambient lighting conditions.
(20) The transcription of the V. fischeri lux genes also requires a regulatory protein, (luxR), cAMP and CRP.
Mux
Definition:
(n.) Dirt; filth; muck.
(v. t.) To mix in an unitidy and offensive way; to make a mess of.
Example Sentences:
(1) Sequential passage of MSV(MuX) virus complex in SC=I cells resulted in a loss of infectious sarcoma and helper viruses, but transformed, MSV rescuable cells were retained.
(2) Detection of MSV(MuX) foci with appropriate helper virus was as sensitive in SC-I cells as in the cells of several other species.
(3) MuX activity was demonstrated by electron microscopy, complement fixation, indirect fluorescent antibody, infectivity, and genome rescue.
(4) MSV(MuX) was not able to achieve that intracellular state from which it could be rescued by mouse leukaemia virus (MuLV) in any mouse cell tested with the exception of SC-I cells.
(5) A xenotropic murine type C virus (MuX) was isolated from the cultured lymphoma cells after cocultivation with a permissive dog line.
(6) Murine xenotropic helper virus (MuX) and its pseudo-type of Moloney murine sarcoma virus (MSV(MuX)) were grown in cat cells to high titre.
(7) MuX alone did not replicate in any mouse cell tested including normal or transformed outbred Swis 3T3 cells or SC-I cells, but did grow in a variety of other mammalian cells.
