Modern Memories : Intersections of Religion, History, and Parks in Guilford County, North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 2014)This study explores connections between individuals' religion, external cultural forces, and collective memory within the context of Guilford County, North Carolina. Guilford County is well known for the Revolutionary War ... -
Modern Sedimentation And Estuarine Shoreline Change Around Roanoke Island, North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 2015)Croatan and Roanoke sounds in North Carolina (NC) are regions constantly undergoing geomorphic changes associated with sea-level rise, storm events, and anthropogenic modification. These estuaries are part of the larger ... -
Modulation of H Reflex in Response to Voluntary Contraction of the Homologous Muscle in the Contralateral Limb
(East Carolina University, 2010)Several studies reported that exercising one limb produces gains in motor output in the same muscle of the un-exercised, contralateral limb. This phenomenon is called cross education. There are also data to suggest that ... -
MOHSIN HAMID AND THE NOVEL OF GLOBALIZATION
(East Carolina University, 2014)With the rise of globalization, people and cultures are interconnected economically, culturally, and socially like never before. Where nationalism defined much of the modern period, defining how people formed social bonds ... -

Molecular Dynamics Studies of Point Mutations of Cardiac Troponin C and Annexin
(East Carolina University, 2015)Calcium binding proteins are biologically important for their ability to convert changes in calcium ion concentration to functional changes in proteins. All calcium binding proteins use a calcium sensing motif that changes ... -
A Molecular Dynamics Study into Annexin A1 Induced Membrane Binding and Aggregation
(East Carolina University, 2010)Annexins constitute a family of proteins that bind to anionic membranes in a reversible and calcium dependent manner through the unique architecture of their calcium binding sites. In addition, annexins with relatively ... -
