The Mi-2 Homolog Mit1 Actively Positions Nucleosomes Within Heterochromatin to Suppress Transcription
… These DNA and protein complexes form a dynamic structure known as chromatin. Nucleosomes are the repeating unit of chromatin, and consist of DNA wrapped around an octamer of histone proteins. Nucleosomes can then be modified and spatially arranged to facilitate processes such as …

Studies of Susceptibility of Broad-Headed Skinks (<em>Eumeces laticeps</em>) and Laboratory Mice (<em>Mus musculus</em>) to Strain MI-2 of <em>Borrelia burgdorferi</em> and Vector Competence of the Tick <em>Ixodes scapularis</em>
… Attempts to infect broad-headed skinks with MI-2 strain spirochetes were unsuccessful. Spirochetes could not be isolated from various tissues of seven lizards at least 30 days after they had been inoculated with 107 spirochetes. Also, none of the xenodiagnostic tick larvae (n = 70) acquired …

Investigating transcription factor dynamics and chromatin environment during Notch response
… pathways control patterning, cell fate determination and tissue assembly. Notch signalling is one such, highly conserved, pathway in multicellular animals that regulates a large diversity of developmental processes. Its function is crucial for normal development and its misregulation is …

CHD Chromatin Remodelers Promote Epigenetic Control of Development in Arabidopsis thaliana
… genomes into compact nuclei. The CHD3 family of chromatin remodelers play key roles as epigenetic modifiers and transcriptional regulators in both plants and animals. PKL is a CHD3 remodeler that represses expression of seed genes during germination in Arabidopsis. Unlike animal CHD3 …

Seasonal dietary composition of the eastern coyote (Canis latrans) on the berry college campus in Northwestern Georgia
… is potentially influencing community dynamics via competition and/or predation. Few studies have examined coyote food habits in the southeastern United States. Our objective was to determine prey items consumed by free-ranging coyotes living on Berry College lands in northwestern Georgia. …

Colocalization between Akirin, the NuRD Complex, and Histone Modifications
… Akirin interacts with subunits of the SWI/SNF family Brahma (BRM) chromatin remodeling complex during myogenesis and cardiogenesis. Interaction between Akirin and CHD family chromatin remodeling complexes has not been determined.</p> <p>Our study aimed to examine the colocalization of Akirin with …

A Vascular Flora of the Sacatar Trail Wilderness, Sierra Nevada, California
… southeastern Sierra Nevada. The ca. 233 km 2 (90 mi 2 ) study area, located 32 km (20 mi) northwest of the city of Ridgecrest, ranges from 930 to 2698 m (3051–8851 ft) in elevation. The highly diverse California Floristic Province, Great Basin, and Mojave Desert converge in the region including …

Relationships between chromatin features and genome regulation
… factors - HPL-2/HP1, LIN-13, LIN-61, LET-418/Mi-2, and H3K9me2 histone methyltransferase MET-2/SETDB1 - collaborates with piRNA and nuclear RNAi pathways to silence repetitive elements and protect the germline. I also found that the TACBGTA motif is particularly enriched on repeats and …

Designing Better Scaffolding in Teaching Complex Systems with Graphical Simulations
… as a system. The ideal gas law is an emergent chemical system that has three levels: (1) experiential macro level (EM)(e.g., an aerosol can explodes when it is thrown into the fire); (2) abstract macro level (AM) (i.e., the relationships among temperature, pressure and volume); (3) micro level …
