Stereochemistry of a curare alkaloid: O,O',N-trimethyl-d-tubocurarine.

Abstract:

:The three-dimensional structure of O,O',N-trimethyl-d-tubocurarine, a neuromuscular blocking agent, has been determined by x-ray crystallography. This may help to provide insight into its pharmacologic action.

  • Comparing sequenced segments of the tomato and Arabidopsis genomes: large-scale duplication followed by selective gene loss creates a network of synteny.

    abstract::A 105-kilobase bacterial artificial chromosome (BAC) clone from the ovate-containing region of tomato chromosome 2 was sequenced and annotated. The tomato BAC sequence was then compared, gene by gene, with the sequenced portions of the Arabidopsis thaliana genome. Rather than matching a single portion of the Arabidops...
