Martin N, Hulbert A, Mitchell T, Else P
J Insect Physiol . 2021 Sep; 136:104310. PMID: 34530044
Two female castes that are genetically identical are found in honey bees: workers and queens. Adult female honey bees differ in their morphology and behaviors, but the most intriguing difference...

Martin N, Hulbert A, Bicudo J, Mitchell T, Else P
Mech Ageing Dev . 2021 Aug; 199:111562. PMID: 34425137
Female honey bees can be queens or workers and although genetically identical, workers have an adult lifespan of weeks while queens can live for years. The mechanisms underlying this extraordinary...

Seebacher F, Murray S, Else P
Physiol Biochem Zool . 2009 Sep; 82(6):766-75. PMID: 19732017
Energy metabolism is fundamental for animal fitness because it fuels locomotion, growth, and reproduction. Mitochondrial capacities often acclimate to compensate for negative thermodynamic effects. Our aim was to determine the...

Berner N, Else P, Hulbert A, Mantle B, Cramp R, Franklin C
J Comp Physiol B . 2009 May; 179(7):857-66. PMID: 19466430
Changes in membrane lipid composition (membrane remodelling) have been associated with metabolic depression in some aestivating snails but has not been studied in aestivating frogs. This study examined the membrane...

Hulbert A, Else P
J Exp Biol . 2005 Apr; 208(Pt 9):1593-9. PMID: 15855390
In his classic 1961 book, The Fire of Life, Max Kleiber presented a critique of the theories advanced to explain the BMR-body size relationship. One of the theories he dismissed...

Hulbert A, Turner N, Storlien L, Else P
Biol Rev Camb Philos Soc . 2005 Feb; 80(1):155-69. PMID: 15727042
Lipids play varied and critical roles in metabolism, with function dramatically modulated by the individual fatty acid moities in complex lipid entities. In particular, the fatty acid composition of membrane...

Hulbert A, Else P
Physiol Biochem Zool . 2005 Jan; 77(6):869-76. PMID: 15674762
The concept of basal metabolic rate (BMR) was developed to compare the metabolic rate of animals and initially was important in a clinical context as a means of determining thyroid...

Wu B, Hulbert A, Storlien L, Else P
Am J Physiol Regul Integr Comp Physiol . 2004 Aug; 287(3):R633-41. PMID: 15308503
The influence of membrane lipid composition on the molecular activity of a major membrane protein (the sodium pump) was examined as a test of the membrane pacemaker theory of metabolism....

Hulbert A, Faulks S, Buttemer W, Else P
J Exp Biol . 2002 Oct; 205(Pt 22):3561-9. PMID: 12364409
The acyl composition of phospholipids from pectoral muscle of eight species of birds, ranging in size from the 13 g zebra finch to the 34 kg emu, were measured and...

Hulbert A, Else P, Manolis S, Brand M
J Comp Physiol B . 2002 Jul; 172(5):387-97. PMID: 12122455
It has previously been shown that mitochondrial proton conductance decreases with increasing body mass in mammals and is lower in a 250-g lizard than the laboratory rat. To examine whether...
