(+)-Larreatricin hydroxylase, an enantio-specific polyphenol oxidase from the creosote bush (Larrea tridentata). [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2003 An enantio-specific polyphenol oxidase (PPO) was purified ≈1,700-fold to apparent homogeneity from the creosote bush ( Larrea tridentata ), and its encoding gene was cloned. The posttranslationally processed PPO (≈43 kDa) has a central role in the biosynthesis of the creosote bush 8–8′ linked lignans, whose ...

Dynamic Risk From Mexican Wolves and Mountain Lions Influences Elk Foraging Behavior. [PDF]
Ecol EvolWe observed elk foraging across a wolf risk gradient throughout all seasons and diel periods to quantify proportions of foraging, intense vigilance, and multitasking at the individual and herd levels. We quantified encounter and kill risk from Mexican wolves and mountain lions using habitat selection functions and utilization distributions.
