(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2012)Despite widespread concerns about the effects of anthropogenic noise on baleen whales (suborder Mysticeti), we lack basic information about their auditory physiology for comprehensive risk assessments. Hearing ranges and ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)A number of mammalian genes are expressed from only one of two alleles in either an imprinted or random manner. Those belonging to the random class include X-linked genes subject to X inactivation, as well as a number of ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Marine viruses shape the diversity and biogeochemical role of their microbial hosts. Cyanophages that infect the cyanobacteria Prochlorococcus and Synechococcus often carry metabolic genes not found in other bacteriophages. ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2011)Organs are primarily formed from epithelia, polarized sheets of cells with an apical surface facing a lumen and basal surface resting on the underlying extracellular matrix. Cells within a sheet are joined by junctions, ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)BEACH proteins comprise an evolutionarily conserved family characterized by the presence of a BEACH (Beige and Chediak-Higashi) domain of unknown function. They have been shown to play a role in a number of important ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2002)A method was developed to isolate and purify primary murine endothelial cells from lung tissue (MLEC). The cells generated by this method were characterized by immuno-fluorescence detection and FACS analysis and expressed ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)Severe stress results in global changes in the bacterial proteome. To respond effectively, new proteins must be synthesized, others destroyed. Coordinated changes in protein synthesis often result from the engagement of ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Predatory bacteria are ubiquitous in aquatic environments and may be important players in the ecology and biogeochemistry of microbial communities. Three novel strains belonging to two genera of marine flavobacteria, Olleya ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2007)The North Atlantic right whale, Eubalaena glacialis, one of the most critically endangered whales in the world, is subject to high anthropogenic mortality. Vessel-whale collisions and entanglement in fishing gear were ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2010)Formation of an endomembrane system in the eukaryotic cell is a hallmark of biological evolution. One such system is the nuclear envelope (NE), composed of an inner and outer membrane, used to form a nucleus and enclose ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2005)The goals of this thesis were to quantify the behavior of gastropod larvae (mud snails Ilyanassa obsoleta) in turbulence, and to investigate how that behavior affects larval supply in a turbulent coastal inlet. Gastropod ...

(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1988)
-
Biotic and abiotic interactions of deep-sea hydrothermal vent-endemic fish on the East Pacific Rise (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2009)A study of the ecology of fish endemic to hydrothermal vents on the East Pacific Rise was undertaken utilizing a variety of techniques, focusing on the bythitid Thermichthys hollisi. Stable isotope and gut content analyses ...
-
(Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2006)A collection of over 500 lines of zebrafish (Danio rerio), each heterozygous for a recessive embryonic lethal mutation caused by a retroviral insertion, was screened for lines that displayed early mortality and externally ...
