Investigation of NADPH-Dependent Thioredoxin Reductase-C (NTRC) In Chloroplast Lipid Metabolism
(East Carolina University, 2022-07-01)
Redox reactions are ubiquitous within plant metabolism and critical for the sustainment of photosynthesis within thylakoid membranes. Specialized glycerolipids that make up these membranes in turn require redox reactions ...
RNA polymerase II CTD Evolutionary Diversity and Associated Protein Identification in Green and Red Algae
(East Carolina University, 2014)
In model eukaryotes, the C-terminal domain (CTD) of the largest subunit (RPB1) of DNA-dependent RNA polymerase II is composed of tandemly repeated heptads with the consensus sequence YSPTSPS. Both the core motif and tandem ...
Role of Notch signaling in tumorigenesis, stemness, and epithelial to mesenchymal transtion in colorectal cancer.
(East Carolina University, 2015)
Colorectal cancer is the third most commonly diagnosed cancer in both men and women in the United States. Surgical resection and combination chemotherapy are often used for treatment, but in later stages of the disease, ...
Effects of Nicotine on Caenorhabditis elegans survival, reproduction, and gene expressions : Development of an Invertebrate Animal Model for Drugs of Abuse
(East Carolina University, 2011)
Although much is known about the addictive effects of nicotine, the molecular mechanisms of nicotine-induced effects remain largely unclear. Specifically, little is known about the effects of nicotine on gene expression, ...
The therapeutic potential of Rho GTPase intervention
(East Carolina University, 2013)
Small GTPases of the Rho family are well established regulators of critical cellular functions including cytoskeletal remodeling, motility, vesicle trafficking and cell cycle control. Additionally, aberrant signaling ...
