Comparative effectiveness of three adult mosquito sampling methods in habitats representative of four different biomes of California.

Abstract

An overview is hereby given of the physical and physicochemical alterations at the level of nuclear structures in rat liver cells, following a chemically-induced neoplastic transformation. These alterations refer to chromatin-DNA structure, from secondary (B- versus A- and Z-form) to tertiary-quanternary up to quinternary (in situ), and to the physical state of water. Possible molecular mechanisms-linking global chromatin changes to single gene expression in the control of neoplastic transformation-are discussed in terms of the degree of negative superhelicity of fibrosomes, recently identified single repeating structural subunits and hereby associated with single functional genes.
