Characterization of METTL16 as a cytoplasmic RNA binding protein
(2020-01-15)mRNA modification by N6-methyladenosine (m6A) is involved in many post-transcriptional regulation processes including mRNA stability, splicing and promotion of translation. Accordingly, the recently identified mRNA ... -
CHARACTERIZATION OF MIGRATING NEURAL CREST CELLS FROM HINDBRAIN EXPLANTS IN ZEBRAFISH
(East Carolina University, 2010)Our lab was interested in creating a reproducible mechanism for obtaining neural crest cells in culture from cultured hindbrain explants of zebrafish. We have characterized the population of cells migrating from the ... -
Characterization of MiR319-Regulated TCPs in Maize Development
(East Carolina University, 1/13/16)Maize produces two inflorescences, the tassel and the ear, that are essential for reproduction. Both inflorescences arise from similar inflorescence primordia and are patterned largely by the same developmental regulators. ... -
Characterization of Pgrmcs and mPRs in oocyte maturation and ovulation in zebrafish (Danio rerio)
(East Carolina University, 2020-06-22)It is well known that progestins initiate important reproductive processes such as oocyte maturation and ovulation in vertebrates. Progestins exert functions through binding to progestin receptors. At least three families ... -
CHARACTERIZATION OF PHOTORECEPTOR-CONTROLLED AGGREGATION AND DISAGGREGATION OF MICROPARTICLE SUSPENSIONS
(East Carolina University, 2021-06-23)Phytochromes are a unique classification of photoreceptors used by plants to perceive light for many physiological processes. Phytochrome B (PhyB) possesses two interconvertible forms which can be activated under specific ... -
Characterization of proteins binding the 3′ regulatory region of the IL-3 gene in IL-3-dependent and autocrine-transformed hematopoietic cells
(1998-03-08)Previously we documented the prolongation of the IL-3 mRNA half-life in an autocrine-transformed cell line. This cell line has an intracisternal type A particle transposition in the IL-3 mRNA 3′ untranslated region which ... -
Characterization of rat models of type two diabetes and metabolic syndrome and the evaluation of SDF-1 mRNA as a treatment for erectile dysfunction
(East Carolina University, 2023-07-24)Erectile Dysfunction (ED) affects a considerable population of men and can have a profound negative impact on their quality of life and well-being. ED is often a consequence of age and diseases that affect the microvasculature ... -
Characterization of Residential Pesticide Use and Chemical Formulations through Self-Report and Household Inventory: The Northern California Childhood Leukemia Study
(2012-10)Background: Home and garden pesticide use has been linked to cancer and other health outcomes in numerous epidemiological studies. Exposure has generally been self-reported, so the assessment is potentially limited by ... -
Characterization of Site-Directed Mutants in the Cytochrome c-550 Protein of Photosystem II
(East Carolina University, 2010)Photosynthesis is the process by which cyanobacteria, algae, and higher plants convert light energy to chemical energy via the biosynthesis of carbohydrates. Photosystem II is a multi-protein/pigment complex embedded in ... -
Characterization of Social Status-Dependent Neuromodulation in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)
(East Carolina University, 2017-06-28)In zebrafish (Danio rerio), social interactions between adult males consist of a series of aggressive encounters that ultimately lead to the formation of stable hierarchies of either socially dominant or subordinate animals. ...
