(1989)
This study investigates the circumstances under which people use a holistic (overall similarity) or an analytic (feature representation) mode of processing in a concept learning task. Three experiments were performed on ...
The Effects of Mutations Introduced In Vitro into trbA and trbB on Conjugation in Escherichia coli K12
(1987)
I used an in vitro mutagenisis technique to introduce antibiotic gene inserts into two different F plasmid transfer (tra) operon genes. The transfer functions of these genes, trbA and trbB, had not been previously characterized ...
Renal Cell Carcinoma Neoplastic Antigens
(1987)
A renal cell carcinoma neoplastic antigen was purified from a freeze-thaw extract of cultured tumor cells using immunoaffinity chromatography. In addition, renal cell carcinoma immune complexes were also isolated from the ...
The F Plasmid Transfer Operon and Conjugation in Escherichia coli K12: The Effects of Transposon Mutagenesis of the traF-traH Region on DNA Transfer
(1987)
In this investigation, transposon mutagenesis was employed to introduce mutations into a cloned 2.65 kb F tra operon fragment. I attempted to mutagenize suspected genes within the region identified only through DNA sequencing ...
