In the central nervous system pp60 s-src is preferentially expressed in regions characterized by a high content of grey matter and elevated density of nerve terminals. In this study we show for the first time a direct interaction between pp60 c-src and synaptophysin as a physiological target protein in neurons by demonstrating that endogenous pp60 c-src is able to phosphorylate synaptophysin (p38). p38 is a major constituent of the synaptic vesicle membrane protein and is thought to play a key role in the exocytosis of small synaptic vesicles and possibly small clear vesicles in neuroendocrine cells.}, subject = {Synaptophysin}, language = {en} } @article{SchartlNandaSchluppetal.1990, author = {Schartl, Manfred and Nanda, Indrajit and Schlupp, Ingo and Parzefall, Jakob and Schmid, Michael and Epplen, J{\"o}rg T.}, title = {Genetic variation in the clonal vertebrate Poecilia formosa is limited to few truly hypervariable loci}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-86359}, year = {1990}, abstract = {No abstract available.}, subject = {Amazon Molly}, language = {en} } @article{SchartlSchartl1990, author = {Schartl, Angelika and Schartl, Manfred}, title = {Genes and cancer: Molecular biology of the melanoma oncogene of Xiphophorus}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-72670}, year = {1990}, abstract = {No abstract available.}, subject = {Schwertk{\"a}rpfling}, language = {en} } @article{MerzFliednerLehrnbecheretal.1990, author = {Merz, H. and Fliedner, A. and Lehrnbecher, T. and Sebald, Walter and M{\"u}ller-Hermelink, H.

Same of these give rise to malignant melanoma following the appropriate crossings. For one of these pattern Iod from the platyfish Xiphophorus maculatus the melanoma-inducing gene has been doned and found to encode a novel receptor tyrosine kinase, designated Xmrk. Using molecular probes from this gene in Southern blot analyses on single fish DNA preparations from 600 specimens of different populations of various species of the genus Xiphophorus and their hybrids, either with or without melanomapredisposing pattern, it was shown that all individuals contain the Xmrk gene as a proto-oncogene. It is located on the sex chromosome. All fish that carry a melanoma-predisposing locus which has been identified by Mendelian genetics contain an additional copy of Xmrk, closely linked to a specific melanophore pattern locus on the sex chromosome. The melanoma-inducing loci of the different species and populations are homologous. The additional copy of Xmrk obviously arose by a geneduplication event, thereby acquiring the oncogenic potential. The homology of the melanomainducing Iod points to a similar mechanism of tumor suppression in all feral fish populations of the different species of the genus Xiphophorus.}, subject = {Physiologische Chemie}, language = {en} } @article{vanHeyningenBickmoreSeawrightetal.1990, author = {van Heyningen, V. and Bickmore, W.

In the field, lobserved aggregations of up to 15 individuals. In the laboratory, mixed age groups of related and also unrelated animals lived jointly in terraria rarely showing within-group aggression or cannibalism. Brood-caring behavior of the mother influenced growth rate and survival probability of the young. With birth, mothers became very aggressive. To study family cohesion in Pandinus, experiments with family groups were conducted. Siblings aggregated around their mother. In choice experiments with two family groups, mothers were placed in enclosures that only the young were able to enter or to leave. Second instars significantly preferred the enclosure containing their own mother. Aggression among unrelated young of the same age was not observed. Feeding experiments studied the possible advantages of long-Iasting group living with regard to enhanced success in prey capture and its effect on growth of the young. Even groups of second instars were unable to subdue large prey on their own. Sibling groups with their mother removed suffered high mortality due to starvation and cannibalism compared to groups with mothers present. Here, young grew significantly faster: they shared the prey that only the mother was able to kill and dismember.

The ants are adapted to the plants so dosely that they do not survive away from it. The only food they utilize is provided as food bodies by the plant and honeydew from specific scale insects kept inside the hollow internodes. The anatomy of the digestive tract is also adapted to life on the host plant: the crop is very sm all and can store only minute food quantities. C. borneensis exdusively colonizes certain Macaranga species. Queens as weIl as workers are able to recognize their host plant species, probably by chemical cues. Colony founding queens swarm throughout the year, mostly during darkness. There is strong competition among queens for host plants. Queens do not carry scale insects on their nuptial flight. Worker ants are active day and night. Most of them patrol and collect food bodies on the younger parts of the host plant. An important characteristic is their deaning behaviour, which results in removal of aIl foreign objects. Even though they are rather smalI, workers respond very aggressively to certain kinds of disturbance of the host plant. The ants attack most phytophagous insects and are especially effective in killing and removing smalI, softbodied herbivores (e.g. caterpillars). They do not possess a functional sting, but apply defensive secretion and-once biting an intruder-will not let go. Their effective alarm system results in a mass attack, which provides adequate defence for the colony and the host plant. A comparison with another Crematogaster species further illustrated the special adaptations of C. borneensis to its host plant.}, language = {en} } @article{DabauvalleLoosScheer1990, author = {Dabauvalle, Marie-Christine and Loos, Karin and Scheer, Ulrich}, title = {Identification of a soluble precursor complex essential for nuclear pore assembly in vitro}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-32801}, year = {1990}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {en} } @article{GesslerPoustkaCaveneeetal.1990, author = {Gessler, Manfred and Poustka, Annemarie and Cavenee, Webster and Neve, Rachael L. and Orkin, Stuart H. and Bruns, Gail A.}, title = {Homozygous deletion in Wilms tumours of a zinc-finger gene identified by chromosome jumping}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-30122}, year = {1990}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {en} } @article{DandekarSibbald1990, author = {Dandekar, Thomas and Sibbald, Peter R.}, title = {Trans-splicing of pre-mRNA is predicted to occur in a wide range of organisms including vertebrates}, url = {http://nbn-resolving.de/urn:nbn:de:bvb:20-opus-29798}, year = {1990}, abstract = {No abstract available}, language = {en} }
