Limits of dark energy measurements from CMB lensing-ISW-galaxy count correlations (2004)

Gold, Benjamin

I discuss several issues that arise when trying to constrain the dark energy equation of state using correlations of the integrated Sachs-Wolfe effect with galaxy counts and lensing of the cosmic...

Real-time measurement of in vitro transcription (2004)

Marras, Salvatore A. E., Gold, Benjamin, Kramer, Fred Russell, Smith, Issar, Tyagi, Sanjay

We have developed a simple method to measure RNA synthesis in real time. In this technique, transcription reactions are performed in the presence of molecular beacons that possess a...

Next-generation test of cosmic inflation (2003)

Gold, Benjamin, Albrecht, Andreas

The increasing precision of cosmological datasets is opening up new opportunities to test predictions from cosmic inflation. Here we study the impact of high precision constraints on the primordial...

Transcriptional Control of the Iron-Responsive fxbA Gene by the Mycobacterial Regulator IdeR†

Dussurget, Olivier, Timm, Juliano, Gomez, Manuel, Gold, Benjamin, Yu, Shengwei, Sabol, Sue Z., ...

Exochelin is the primary extracellular siderophore of Mycobacterium smegmatis, and the iron-regulated fxbA gene encodes a putative formyltransferase, an essential enzyme in the exochelin biosynthetic...

ideR, an Essential Gene in Mycobacterium tuberculosis: Role of IdeR in Iron-Dependent Gene Expression, Iron Metabolism, and Oxidative Stress Response†

Rodriguez, G. Marcela, Voskuil, Martin I., Gold, Benjamin, Schoolnik, Gary K., Smith, Issar

The mycobacterial IdeR protein is a metal-dependent regulator of the DtxR (diphtheria toxin repressor) family. In the presence of iron, it binds to a specific DNA sequence in the promoter regions of...

Differential expression of iron-, carbon-, and oxygen-responsive mycobacterial genes in the lungs of chronically infected mice and tuberculosis patients

Timm, Juliano, Post, Frank A., Bekker, Linda-Gail, Walther, Gabriele B., Wainwright, Helen C., Manganelli, Riccardo, ...

Pathogenetic processes that facilitate the entry, replication, and persistence of Mycobacterium tuberculosis (MTB) in the mammalian host likely include the regulated expression of specific sets of...
