Corrigendum: ER network dynamics are differentially controlled by myosins XI-K, XI-C, XI-E, XI-I, XI-1, and XI-2

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of higher plants is a complex network of tubules and cisternae. Some of the tubules and cisternae are relatively persistent, while others are dynamically moving and remodeling through growth and shrinkage, cycles of tubule elongation and retraction, and cisternal expansion and diminution. Previous work showed that transient expression in tobacco leaves of the moto...

Factor XI activity and factor XI antigen in homozygous and heterozygous factor XI deficiency.

A relatively potent antiserum against highly purified, unactivated human factor XI antigen was raised in a rabbit. This antiserum, after concentration, neutralized 50% of the factor XI clotting activity of a standard normal plasma at an antiserum dilution of 1/900. The antiserum was used in a neutralization-inhibition assay to study the relation between factor XI clotting activity and factor XI...

NITROIMIDAZOLES XI [I]. SYNTHESES OF DISUBSTITUTED NITROIMIDAZOLYLQUINOLINES

Reaction of substituted-aniline (8) with ethyl (l-methyl-5-nitroimidazole-2- carbonyl) acetate (9) gave 4-hydroxy-2-(l-methyl-5-nitro-2-imidazolyl)- substituted-quinolines (lo), which were converted to compound 11 with phosphorus oxychloride. Substituted-2-(l-methyl-5-nitro-2-imidazo1yl)-4.- methyl-(or phenyl-) quinolines (14) were prepared through the reaction of 2- acetyl-5-nitro-1-methy...
