Journal ArticleDOI
Transcriptome profiling of developmental and xenobiotic responses in a keystone soil animal, the oligochaete annelid Lumbricus rubellus
Jennifer Owen,B Ann Hedley,Claus Svendsen,Jodie F Wren,Martijs J. Jonker,Peter K. Hankard,Linsey J Lister,Stephen R. Stürzenbaum,A. John Morgan,David J. Spurgeon,Mark Blaxter,Peter Kille +11 more
TL;DR: L. rubellus has a complex response to contaminant exposure, but this can be efficiently analysed using molecular methods, revealing unique response profiles for different classes of effector.
Journal ArticleDOI
Induction of expression of a 14-3-3 gene in response to copper exposure in the marine alga, Fucus vesiculosus
TL;DR: Interestingly, the threshold exposure profile may be associated with a decrease in the organism’s ability to control copper influx so that it perceives copper as a toxic response, and preliminary evidence to link the induction of this 14-3-3 gene to copper exposure in this alga is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Holding on to childhood things: storage, emotion and curation of children's material biographies
Jennifer Owen,Kate Boyer +1 more
TL;DR: This paper explored how parents engage with and manage their children's material biographies as they move into adulthood and away, spatially and emotionally, from their parents and the family home, arguing that these practices serve as a form of material-emotional grounding, or effort to generate a sense of security, in the face of uncertainty about what the future may hold in the context of unaffordable housing markets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Intracellular localization and induction of a dynamic RNA-editing event of macro-algal V-ATPase subunit A (VHA-A) in response to copper.
TL;DR: RNA editing is proposed as a novel molecular process underpinning VHA trafficking and intracellular sequestration of heavy metals under stress by exploiting laboratory exposures and samples from an environmental copper gradient to show that total VHA-A transcript and protein were induced by copper.
Journal ArticleDOI
Distancing material effects to reconcile loss: Sorting memories and emotion in self-storage
TL;DR: In this article, the authors demonstrate how self-storage affects practices of mourning and remembrance, in particular by distancing and delaying engagement with memories and emotions during the process of divesting the effects of the deceased.
