UNDER THE BAY: An Augmented Reality Project
(2021)“Under the Bay” tells the story of a world beneath the surface of the Chesapeake Bay and really all estuaries and oceans. In this augmented reality project a user can point their cell phone at the water — or anywhere in ... -
Use of the beta-lactamase inhibitor clavulanic acid in the isolation of auxotrophic mutants of Bacillus licheniformis
(American Society for Microbiology, 1984-08)The isolation of auxotrophic mutants of Bacillus licheniformis, a microbe containing constitutive ,β-lactamase activity, was found to be facilitated by the addition of clavulanic acid and cefotaxime during enrichment. -
Vasoactive intestinal peptide indirectly elicits pituitary LH secretion independent of GnRH in female zebrafish
(Oxford University Press, 2022-01-03)Vasoactive intestinal peptide (Vip) regulates luteinizing hormone (LH) release through the direct regulation of gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) neurons at the level of the brain in female rodents. However, little ... -

Whole transcriptome analysis reveals changes in expression of immune-related genes during and after bleaching in a reef-building coral
(The Royal Society, 2015-04-01)Climate change is negatively affecting the stability of natural ecosystems, especially coral reefs. The dissociation of the symbiosis between reef-building corals and their algal symbiont, or coral bleaching, has been ... -
β-Glutamate as a Substrate for Glutamine Synthetase
(American Society for Microbiology, 2001-10)The conversion of β-glutamate to β-glutamine by archaeal and bacterial glutamine synthetase (GS) enzymes has been examined. The GS from Methanohalophilus portucalensis (which was partially purified) is capable of catalyzing ...
