STABLE ISOTOPE ANALYSES OF MULTIPLE TISSUES OF GREAT SHEARWATERS (ARDENNA GRAVIS) REVEALS LONG-TERM DIETARY STABILITY, SHORT-TERM CHANGES IN DIET, AND CAN BE USED AS A TOOL TO MONITOR FOOD WEBS

Stable Isotope Analyses of Multiple Tissues of Great Shearwaters (Ardenna Gravis) Reveals Long-Term Dietary Stability, Short-Term Changes in Diet, and Can be Used as a Tool to Monitor Food Webs

The great shearwater (Ardenna gravis) is a common pelagic bird with a distribution that spans almost the entire Atlantic basin, which in conjunction with its relatively high abundance, makes great shearwaters an effective bio indicator.We compared δ13C and δ15N values from the feathers, red blood cells (RBCs), and plasma of great orly ely

Misfolding of a Single Disulfide Bonded Globular Protein into a Low-Solubility Species Conformationally and Biophysically Distinct from the Native One

In practice and despite Anfinsen’s dogma, the refolding of recombinant multiple SS-bonded proteins is famously difficult because misfolded species with non-native SS-bonds appear upon the oxidization of their cysteine residues.On the other hand, single SS-bond proteins are thought to be simple to refold because their cysteines have only one S
