Scope and Contents This a notebook within a series involving Grieder's course work at UC Berkley. The notebook begins with a guest lecture by J. Thorner. The course professor gave the class a question on containing cells in a plasmid. The notebook also contains a letter from Bruce Stillman to Grieder. Grieder apologized for slow response to her letters regarding grant proposals. Stillman reponds and tells Grieder that he will telephone Grieder in a couple of days. The notebook also contains a course diagram of...

Scope and Contents This is a notebook within a series regarding Greider's lecture notes. The notebook begins with an essay Grieder wrote for a course, entitled Zoology: Gene Expression in Development, on examples of biological regulation in development. The course instructor was Frederick Wilt. Essentially the essay was a literature review on regulation in different organisms like slime molds. Also contained a bibliographic list for those researchers Greider mentioned or quoted.The notebook also...

Scope and Contents This is a notebook within a series on Greider's course notes. The notebook begins wth course notes, entitled Molecular Biology of Eukaryotic Microorganisms.The course instructor was Elizabeth Blackburn. The class had weekly discussion sections on key papers. The documents also contained a syllabus with necessary books and journal papers for the students. The notebook also contained diagrams of vegetative and mated cells fissioning. Greider noted that Tetrahymena cells mate simple cycle and...

Scope and Contents This is a notebook within a series on Greider's course notes. The notebook begins with diagrams of RNA sequence with oligonucleotides labeled in certain sections. The notebook continued with a document on how telomerase, or as it was known at the time telomere transferase, recognizes telomeres. Greider also analyzed specificity of the telomere and co-purification as well as involvement of RNA, using MNase and RNase sensitivity. Greider discussed ideas, worries, and things to try. The...

Scope and Contents From the Series:

The series includes several class notes written by Grieder as well as her notes and lectures from specifc courses that helped Grieder in her pursuit of the telomerase enzyme and telomeric repeats in the DNA. Such courses include the Yeast genome, which at the time was one of the more popular model organisms in the late twentieth century. It also includes experiments that Grieder conducted in the Blackburn lab and correspondence between Grieder and Blackburn.

Scope and Contents This is a notebook within a series on Grieder's work and articles pertaining to her work. Begins with a letter Grieder sent to Elizabeth Blackburn. In the letter Grieder told Blackburn that she was able to obtain an active prep column and that Grieder has an idea and wants to run the idea by Blackburn. The notebook also contains an article entitled Identification of a Specific Telomere Terminal Transferase Activity in Tetrahymena Extracts. The article was essentially a discussion revolving...
