Drosophila Ctf4 is essential for genome stability and normal cell cycle progression
(East Carolina University, 2010)Proper DNA replication and well-timed cell cycle progression are vital to the normal functioning of a cell. Precise coordination between these mechanisms' constituent proteins ensures their processivity while safeguarding ... -
Thermodynamic Investigation into the Binding Properties of Cardiac Troponin (Human and Bovine)
(East Carolina University, 2010)Troponin is an integral protein in the mechanism of muscle contraction. In order to induce cardiac muscle contraction, Ca[superscript]2[superscript]+ must bind to the TnC subunit (calcium binding subunit) of troponin to ... -
Utilizing Isothermal Titration Calorimetry to Quantify the Thermodynamics of Cadmium Mimicry: A Comparison to Calcium
(East Carolina University, 2016-07-20)Isothermal titration calorimetry (ITC) is a powerful calorimetric method which can determine all thermodynamic parameters (K, [Delta]H, [Delta]G, and [Delta]S) for a binding event in a single experiment. More recently, ITC ...
