• Estimated Annual Net Change in Soil Carbon per US County, 1990-2004

  Carbon Dioxide Information Analysis Center (CDIAC) Datasets · 2008-01-01

  datasetOpen access

  These data represent the estimated net change (Megagram per year) in soil carbon due to changes in the crop type and tillage intensity. Estimated accumulation of soil carbon under Conservation Reserve Program (CRP)lands is included in these estimates. Negative values represent a net flux from the atmosphere to the soil; positive values represent a net flux from the soil to the atmosphere. As such, soil carbon sequestration is represented here as a negative value.

• Patent Invalidity and the Seventh Amendment: Is the Jury Out?

  Digital USD (University of San Diego) · 1997-01-01 · 3 citations

  articleOpen access1st authorCorresponding

  Patent invalidity is a defense commonly raised in actions for patent infringement when the defending alleged infringing party asserts the patent either is invalid or he or she is not liable for infringement. Today, a jury hears more than 50 percent of patent cases. This comment examines the constitutional issues related to the Seventh Amendment right to a jury trial, in the context of patent invalidity. The author argues that patent invalidity cases should not be afforded a jury trial because the action is arguably equitable rather than legal in nature, and the question of patent invalidity should be considered a pure matter of law reserved solely for the court.

• Increased protein expression through improved ribosome-binding sites obtained by library mutagenesis.

  PubMed · 1994-11-01 · 13 citations

  article1st authorCorresponding

  This report describes a method whereby library mutagenesis combined with drug selection was used to generate unique and efficient ribosome-binding sites (RBS) for expressing recombinant proteins in Escherichia coli. The RBS was deleted from a vector expressing beta-lactamase and replaced with a 16-base sequence containing a library of mutations. Selection of the library with ampicillin yielded several unique RBS sequences that were more efficient than ompA RBS for expressing a bacterial (beta-lactamase) and a mammalian protein (single-chain Fv antibody). The described approach provides a practical means to improve recombinant protein expression and, also, provides new sequences to further evaluate the complex regulatory mechanism underlying translation initiation.
