Nitrate dynamics of grass-legume pastures
(2010-12-20)In response to environmental concerns about NO3- leaching research has shifted toward the increased incorporation of nitrogen-fixing legumes, such as red clover, into agroecosystems to promote tighter cycling of nitrogen ... -
NITRIC OXIDE NEUROMODULATION OF VERTEBRATE GAP JUNCTION-COUPLED RETINAL HORIZONTAL CELLS
(2022-08-18)Horizontal cells (HCs) are second-order neurons of the vertebrate retina that are thought to contribute to the generation of the surround component of center-surround receptive fields of bipolar and ganglion cells that are ... -
THE NITRIC OXIDE SYNTHASE ADAPTOR PROTEIN (NOS1AP) ASSOCIATES WITH SCRIBBLE AND REGULATES DENDRITIC SPINE DEVELOPMENT
(2010-05-25)In a targeted proteomic screen to identify polarity protein complexes, a number of Scribble (Scrib) -associating proteins were identified; of particular interest was the Nitric Oxide Synthase 1 Adaptor Protein (NOS1AP). ... -
Nitrogen and Oxygen Isotope Effects of Nitrite Oxidation in Various Species of Nitrite-oxidizing Bacteria
(2020-12-18)Bioavailable nitrogen is a limiting nutrient in many parts of the ocean. Nitrite oxidation produces biologically available nitrate, which in turn can help regulate primary production and the absorption of carbon dioxide ... -
