Multiple Translation Factor eIF4G (IFG-1) Isoforms are Required for the Apoptosome-Dependent Activation of Germ Cell Apoptosis
(East Carolina University, 2010)
Apoptosis is a naturally occurring process during animal development required for the programmed killing and removal of injured cells. Cellular insult induces a switch in translation that allows for the rapid synthesis ...
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 ...
Sld5, A Subunit of the Heterotetrameric GINS Complex is Necessary for Normal Cell Cycle Progression and Genomic Stability
(East Carolina University, 2010)
Sld5 is one component of the GINS heterotetrameric complex essential to DNA replication. Specifically, GINS is known for its integral role during the G1 to S phase transition in the cell cycle. The GINS complex is comprised ...
EXPLORING THE BYSTANDER EFFECT FOLLOWING VERY LOW DOSE RADIATION
(East Carolina University, 2010)
Bystander effects are defined as the phenomenon in which unirradiated cells respond biologically when their neighbors are irradiated. The exact mechanisms of these cellular responses are still not known, especially in ...
The serine protease from the venom of polistes dominulus contains allergenic epitopes
(East Carolina University, 2010)
The protection introduced by immunotherapy to patients with allergies to paper wasps may be partial depending on the sensitizing species. Partial cross-reactivity between major paper wasp groups may be the reason for ...
