As the Leaves Turn Gold

Asian Americans and Experiences of Aging

As the Leaves Turn Gold examines the challenges and opportunities around aging for Asian American women and men in the United States. The book looks at a range of Asian Americans—affluent and poor, third-generation natives and recent immigrants, political exiles and recent migrants, people who immigrated early in life and those who immigrated late in life—and features interview excerpts that bring these issues to life. The book shows how the life courses of individuals, including discrimination they may have faced in earlier years, can shape their golden years. As they grow older, Asian Americans continue to struggle to fit into American society—this is true even of those who are highly educated, relatively affluent, and have lived and worked with non-Asian Americans for most of their lives. As the Leaves Turn Gold discusses not only the challenges older Asian Americans face, such as lack of adequate support services, but also local and transnational solutions. As the Leaves Turn Gold is an important examination of aging, immigration, and social inequality.

Hypoxia-induced Global Protein Relocalization in Yeast

Protein function and activity can be controlled by an effective mechanism of regulated protein localization. However, the contribution of protein localization in cellular signaling has not been examined systematically. Hypoxia is one of the common conditions experienced by higher eukaryotes under various physiological, pathological and disease conditions. The effect of hypoxia on protein localization may have broad implications in understanding hypoxia responses in eukaryotes ranging from yeast to human. The objective of this dissertation is to identify proteins on a genome-wide scale, that change their subcellular localization in response to hypoxia and to further study the dynamics of protein localization. Using fluorescent live-cell imaging and a previously generated yeast collection of over 4000 strains, each of which expresses a particular GFP-tagged protein, we systematically identified 203 proteins whose cellular localization patterns are altered under hypoxia. These proteins are involved in many essential regulatory/metabolic functions in various organelles.

Caribbean Trade and Integration

The efforts made by Caribbean policymakers to strengthen regional cooperation and integration have not yielded the envisioned level of economic transformation. This volume distinguishes itself by combining history with sound economic and policy analysis. Moreover, it reviews a survey of several key historical studies that have identified the urgent need for a change in policy action among Caribbean Community member states.
