Laboratory experimental evolution provides a window into the details of the evolutionary process. To investigate the consequences of long-term adaptation, we evolved 205 Saccharomyces cerevisiae populations (124 haploid and 81 diploid) for ~10,000,000 generations in three environments. We measured the
Respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is a major respiratory pathogen responsible for severe pulmonary disease. We have developed a parenterally administered vaccine, BBG2Na, which is currently in a phase III clinical trial. BBG2Na comprises residues 130--230 of RSV-A G protein (G2Na)

A new method for purifying human interferon-beta SER17 from E. coli-derived inclusion bodies has been developed. This procedure eliminates the need for strong denaturants, such as sodium dodecyl sulfate or chaotropes. The procedure makes use of a nondenaturing detergent and

Serologic responses to the newly introduced rough Brucella abortus vaccine strain RB51 have been determined in a dot-blot format using gamma-irradiated RB51 cells as the antigen. Because gamma-irradiated cells are not easily prepared and the signal from cells was not

PorB proteins constitute the vast majority of channels in neisserial outer membranes and can be subdivided within meningococcal strains into two distinct and mutually exclusive families that are designated as class 2 and class 3 proteins. We recently characterized the
