THE ROLE OF DROSOPHILA NUCLEAR RECEPTOR FTZ-F1 IN SOMATIC CELLS IS NECCESSARY FOR GERMLINE STEM CELL MAINTENANCE
Sanders, Sydney (East Carolina University, 2022-04-29)The production of gametes is a controlled synergistic relationship between germ cells and somatic cells. In Drosophila oogenesis, the NR5A subfamily nuclear receptor ftz-f1 is expressed in the germline stem cells, germ ... -
THE ROLE OF HNRNPS ON THE ESTABLISHMENT AND MAINTENANCE OF GERMLINE STEM CELLS IN DROSOPHILA MELANOGASTER
Holt, Vivian (East Carolina University, 2018-05-03)An organism’s ability to grow and regulate tissue repair relies on the stimulation of stem cells in response to changes in physiological state, such as cell damage, sexual maturation and growth. Tissue-resident stem cells ... -
The role of mRNA translation mechanisms in germ cell and embryonic development in C. elegans
Umphlett, Hannah Bassett (East Carolina University, 2023-05-03)Reproductive cells and embryos use mRNA regulation as a primary means of gene expression. mRNA translational mechanisms rely on the eIF4 translation factors. These include eIF4E, which binds mRNA 7-methylguanosine caps, ... -
The Role of N-Linked Glycosylation on Human Fibrinogen: A Structure-Function Analysis Utilizing Affinity and High-Performance Liquid Chromatography
Daub, Caroline Elizabeth (East Carolina University, 2023-05-05)Fibrinogen (Fgn) is a soluble, 3-chain homodimeric glycoprotein found in blood plasma that is involved in forming blood clots. It is the precursor to fibrin, an insoluble protein that forms the structural scaffold of blood ... -
The Role of Oatp74D, an Ecdysone Importer, in the Drosophila ovary.
Powell, Amanda M (East Carolina University, 2022-05-04)Oogenesis is the progression of germ cells through mitotic expansion, differentiation into an oocyte, and successful completion of meiosis. Steroid hormones play critical roles in this process in diverse organisms. In ... -

The Role of Pre-Replication Complex Proteins in Drosophila Ovarian Stem Cell Maintenance and Proliferation
Safin, Justin R (East Carolina University, 2017-05-05)Cancer stem cells (CSCs) may hold the key to advances in cancer research. Like adult tissue-specific stem cells, CSCs are able to self-renew and last a lifetime. These shared characteristics can thus be used to help learn ... -
