Quantum Mechanics for the Swimming of Micro-Organism in Two Dimensions
, 1994 In two dimensional fluid, there are only two classes of swimming ways of micro-organisms, {\it i.e.}, ciliated and flagellated motions. Towards understanding of this fact, we analyze the swimming problem by using $w_{1+\infty}$ and/or $W_{1+\infty ...

Structural basis of template-boundary definition in Tetrahymena telomerase. [PDF]
, 2015 Telomerase is required to maintain repetitive G-rich telomeric DNA sequences at chromosome ends. To do so, the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) subunit reiteratively uses a small region of the integral telomerase RNA (TER) as a template.

Integrating functional diversity, food web processes, and biogeochemical carbon fluxes into a conceptual approach for modeling the upper ocean in a high-CO2 world [PDF]
, 2005 Marine food webs influence climate by channeling carbon below the permanent pycnocline, where it can be sequestered. Because most of the organic matter exported from the euphotic zone is remineralized within the "upper ocean" (i.e., the water column ...
