This action funds an NSF Minority Postdoctoral Research Fellowship for 1999.The research and training plan is in the area of developmental biology and is entitled "Early steps in the development of the metazoan C. elegans." The goal of this research is to increase understanding of the uniquely metazoan mechanisms of pre-mRNA processing during early stages of development. This is being accomplished by characterizing two temperature sensitive Caenorhabditis elegans mutants that exhibit a mis-localization of trimethylguanosine capped RNAs, embryo lethality, and a defect inchromosome segregation.

这项行动资助了 1999 年 NSF 少数博士后研究奖学金。该研究和培训计划属于发育生物学领域，题为“后生动物秀丽隐杆线虫发育的早期步骤”。 本研究的目的是加深对后生动物在发育早期阶段前 mRNA 加工的独特机制的了解。 这是通过表征两种温度敏感的秀丽隐杆线虫突变体来实现的，这些突变体表现出三甲基鸟苷加帽 RNA 的错误定位、胚胎致死性和染色体分离缺陷。
