Influence of diet on the distribution of nitrogen isotopes in animals

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of diet on the distribution of nitrogen isotopes in animals was investigated by analyzing animals grown in the laboratory on diets of constant nitrogen isotopic composition and found that the variability of the relationship between the δ(15)N values of animals and their diets is greater for different individuals raised on the same diet than for the same species raised on different diets.

Influence of Diet On the Distribtion of Nitrogen Isotopes in Animals

TL;DR: In this article, the influence of diet on the distribution of nitrogen isotopes in animals was investigated by analyzing animals grown in the laboratory on diets of constant nitrogen isotopic composition and found that the variability of the relationship between the δ^(15)N values of animals and their diets is greater for different individuals raised on the same diet than for the same species raised on different diets.

An integrated procedure for the extraction of bacterial isoprenoid quinones and polar lipids

TL;DR: A simple small-scale procedure for the sequential extraction of isoprenoid quinones and polar lipids from bacterial cells was developed and the extracted organisms were analyzed to give a polar lipid extract.

Direct activation of calcium-activated, phospholipid-dependent protein kinase by tumor-promoting phorbol esters

TL;DR: Kinetic analysis indicates that TPA can substitute for diacylglycerol and greatly increases the affinity of the enzyme for Ca2+ as well as for phospholipid, and various phorbol derivatives which have been shown to be active in tumor promotion are also capable of activating this protein kinase in in vitro systems.

4 Lipid and Cell-Wall Analysis in Bacterial Systematics

TL;DR: Progress in the biochemistry of microorganisms have revealed that cell-component analysis can be effectively applied to bacterial systematics, providing the basis of chemotaxonomy, and DNA homology data contribute to the clarification, not only of the relatedness of two organisms, but also of the evaluation of phenotypic characteristics.
