Analysis of the Gα4 signal transduction pathway and its role in the development of Dictyostelium discoideum
Srinivasan, Jaishree (1999-07) -
Analysis of the role of methyl-accepting chemotaxis proteins and the GGDEF motif in the signal transduction chain of photoactive yellow protein
Hampton, Saylor F. (4/26/2023)Many bacterial genomes encode photoreceptors which detect illumination and send signal cascades to response-regulated proteins to illicit physiological responses. The Photoactive yellow protein (PYP) is a known photoreceptor ... -
Analysis of the role of RegA in pathogenesis and Ras signaling
Moore, Joshua (2018-05-09)Dictyostelium discoideum is an excellent eukaryotic model organism for signal transduction research purposes. It is a free-living amoeba, which under nutritional stress utilizes two complex signaling pathways for multicellular ... -
Characterization of MAP Kinase Regulation of Cyclic AMP Signaling in Dictyostelium
Adhikari, Nirakar (2018-12-01)cAMP signaling plays a critical role in cell development and chemotaxis of Dictyostelium discoideum. Regulation of the MAP kinase protein Erk2 and phosphodiesterase RegA activity eventually controls the cAMP-mediated cell ... -
Chlamydia Trachomatis and Host Cell Egress
Behar, Amanda Rain (2016-12-01)Chlamydia trachomatis is the most frequently reported bacterial sexually transmitted infection worldwide. Even after a C. trachomatis infection is treated, there is an increased risk for the development of pelvic inflammatory ... -
Developmental signaling and acute lung injury
Guo, Yujie (2014-05)The present study is initiated to explore the potential implication of developmental signaling in AEC I injury, acute inflammatory response, and host defense against pathogen invasion during the pathogenesis of ALI/ARDS. -
Exploration into the epigenetic mechanisms related to prenatal famine & later-life health
Howell, Brooke (4/19/2023)Epigenetics is a fascinating field and one that researchers are continuously studying to learn more about and its effects over time. One group of individuals, in particular, has caught the eye of many, and it is those ... -
Genetic analysis of photosynthesis psbO and psbV genes in cyanobacteria Synechocystis sp PCC6803
Al-Khaldi, Sufian F. (1998-05) -
Identification and characterization of natural compound inhibitors of the Hsp90 chaperone complex
Davenport, Jason Lee (2013-07)The 90 kDa Heat Shock Protein (Hsp90) has emerged as a major therapeutic target for a number of diseases, the most notable of which is cancer. Accordingly, many groups are attempting to develop small molecules that modulate ... -
Identification and Isolation of an Azoreductase from Enterococcus faecium
Macwana, Susan Rebaka (Oklahoma State University, 2007-05-01)Azo dyes are commonly used in the paper, textile, plastic, pharmaceutical, food, cosmetic, enamels, and drug industries. When these dyes enter the human body either by environmental contamination or from ingestion of food ... -
Metabolically Engineering Aspergillus nidulans for Client Protein Production
Lightfoot, Jorge David (2019-07)The filamentous fungi, A. nidulans, can produce nearly 100 grams per liter of industrially relevant proteins under optimal conditions. However, many of these proteins are degraded or produced alongside other proteins, which ... -
Molecular regulation of bacterial stress responses and pyocin production
Hamm, Christopher William (2023-05)Bacteria have a variety of systems to sense stress and respond ensuring the survival of cells. Bacillus subtilis uses stressosomes—large cytoplasmic multiprotein complexes—to sense environmental stressors and trigger the ... -
Role of Cytokines in Langerhans Cell Migration Following Treatment of Murine Skin with Anti-CD80 Antibody
Deshpande, Pratima (2001-12-01) -
Studies on the role of polypeptides of the photosystem II water oxidation complex
Qian, Ming (1997-12)
