Dosage-sensitive functions in embryonic development drove the survival of genes on sex-specific chromosomes in snakes, birds, and mammals
(Cold Spring Harbor Laboratory, 2021)© 2021 Bellott and Page. Different ancestral autosomes independently evolved into sex chromosomes in snakes, birds, and mammals. In snakes and birds, females are ZW and males are ZZ; in mammals, females are XX and males ... -

Dose rate effects in the radiation damage of the plastic scintillators of the CMS hadron endcap calorimeter
(IOP Publishing, 2016-10)We present measurements of the reduction of light output by plastic scintillators irradiated in the CMS detector during the 8 TeV run of the Large Hadron Collider and show that they indicate a strong dose rate effect. The ... -
Dose-dependence and small-scale variability in responses to ocean acidification during squid, Doryteuthis pealeii, development
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2019-04-19)Abstract Coastal squids lay their eggs on the benthos, leaving them to develop in a dynamic system that is undergoing rapid acidification due to human influence. Prior studies have broadly investigated the ... -
Dose-dependence and small-scale variability in responses to ocean acidification during squid, Doryteuthis pealeii, development

Dose-Dependent Regulation of Alternative Splicing by MBNL Proteins Reveals Biomarkers for Myotonic Dystrophy
(Public Library of Science, 2016-09)Alternative splicing is a regulated process that results in expression of specific mRNA and protein isoforms. Alternative splicing factors determine the relative abundance of each isoform. Here we focus on MBNL1, a splicing ... -
Dose-dependent regulation of microbial activity on sinking particles by polyunsaturated aldehydes: Implications for the carbon cycle
(National Academy of Sciences (U.S.), 2015-05)Diatoms and other phytoplankton play a crucial role in the global carbon cycle, fixing CO[subscript 2] into organic carbon, which may then be exported to depth via sinking particles. The molecular diversity of this organic ... -
Dose-Response Analysis of Chemotactic Signaling Response in Salmonella typhimurium LT2 upon Exposure to Cysteine / Cystine Redox Pair

Dosimeter-Type NO[subscript x] Sensing Properties of KMnO[subscript 4] and Its Electrical Conductivity during Temperature Programmed Desorption
(MDPI AG, 2013-04)An impedimetric NO[subscript x] dosimeter based on the NO[subscript x] sorption material KMnO[subscript 4] is proposed. In addition to its application as a low level NO[subscript x] dosimeter, KMnO[subscript 4] shows ... -
Dosimetry of N[superscript 6]-Formyllysine Adducts Following [[superscript 13]C[superscript 2]H[subscript 2]]-Formaldehyde Exposures in Rats
(American Chemical Society (ACS), 2013-10)With formaldehyde as the major source of endogenous N[superscript 6]-formyllysine protein adducts, we quantified endogenous and exogenous N[superscript 6]-formyllysine in the nasal epithelium of rats exposed by inhalation ... -
Double Affine Hecke Algebras and Their Applications
(American Mathematical Society (AMS), 2017-11)I am very excited to have been asked to deliver an invited address at the Fall 2017 meeting of the AMS Western Section (UC Riverside). I will talk about double affine Hecke algebras and their applications. -
Double benefit of limiting global warming for tropical cyclone exposure

The Double Chooz antineutrino detectors
(Springer Berlin Heidelberg, 2022-09-08)Abstract This article describes the setup and performance of the near and far detectors in the Double Chooz experiment. The electron antineutrinos of the Chooz nuclear power plant were measured in two ... -
Double Diffusion, Shear Instabilities, and Heat Impacts of a Pacific Summer Water Intrusion in the Beaufort Sea
(American Meteorological Society, 2022-02)Pacific Summer Water eddies and intrusions transport heat and salt from boundary regions into the western Arctic basin. Here we examine concurrent effects of lateral stirring and vertical mixing using microstructure data ... -
Double field theory
(IOP Publishing, 2009-09)The zero modes of closed strings on a torus — the torus coordinates plus dual coordinates conjugate to winding number — parameterize a doubled torus. In closed string field theory, the string field depends on all zero-modes ... -
Double field theory at order α′
(Springer-Verlag, 2014-11)We investigate α′ corrections of bosonic strings in the framework of double field theory. The previously introduced “doubled α′-geometry” gives α′-deformed gauge transformations arising in the Green-Schwarz anomaly ... -
Double field theory of type II strings
(Spring Berlin/Heidelberg, 2011-09)We use double field theory to give a unified description of the low energy limits of type IIA and type IIB superstrings. The Ramond-Ramond potentials fit into spinor representations of the duality group O(D, D) and ... -
Double Layer in Ionic Liquids: Overscreening versus Crowding
(American Physical Society, 2011-01)We develop a simple Landau-Ginzburg-type continuum theory of solvent-free ionic liquids and use it to predict the structure of the electrical double layer. The model captures overscreening from short-range correlations, ... -
Double metric, generalized metric, and α′-deformed double field theory
(American Physical Society, 2016-03)We relate the unconstrained “double metric” of the “α′-geometry” formulation of double field theory to the constrained generalized metric encoding the spacetime metric and b-field. This is achieved by integrating out ... -
Double Nicking by RNA-Guided CRISPR Cas9 for Enhanced Genome Editing Specificity
(Cell Press/Elsevier, 2013-09)Targeted genome editing technologies have enabled a broad range of research and medical applications. The Cas9 nuclease from the microbial CRISPR-Cas system is targeted to specific genomic loci by a 20 nt guide sequence, ...
