Optical phased arrays represent an enabling new technology that makes possible simple
affordable, lightweight, optical sensors offering very precise stabilization, random-access …

The family interactions of 27 intact families with clinically depressed mothers were compared
with those of 25 normal families. Each family had at least one child between the ages of 3–…

Based on behavioral theory, it has been hypothesized that spouse solicitous responses to
the pain behaviors of chronic pain patients may contribute to the maintenance of pain …

The problem-solving interactions of normal marital dyads were compared with those of two
groups of couples in which the wife was clinically depressed. One group was experiencing …

The spliceosome is the complex macromolecular machine responsible for removing introns
from precursors to messenger RNAs (pre-mRNAs). We combined yeast genetic engineering, …

Social reinforcers such as spouse behaviors have been hypothesized to be important in
maintaining chronic pain behavior. This study used direct observation to test whether solicitous …

Loading of the ring-shaped Mcm2–7 replicative helicase around DNA licenses eukaryotic
origins of replication. During loading, Cdc6, Cdt1, and the origin-recognition complex (ORC) …

Complexes of macromolecules that transiently self-assemble, perform a particular function,
and then dissociate are a recurring theme in biology. Such systems often have a large …

This study attempted to identify factors associated with smoking onset among teens. It was
hypothesized that initial cigarette smoking is largely prompted by peers, and that these …

Understanding the pathway and kinetic mechanisms of transcription initiation is essential for
quantitative understanding of gene regulation, but initiation is a multistep process, the …
