Effect of green tea Polyphenon 60 on microRNA expression in MCF-7 breast cancer cells
(East Carolina University, 2010)In Western countries, breast cancer is the most common form of cancer and it is the second leading cause of female cancer death in America. The biochemical basis of the observed anti-oncogenic properties of green tea has ... -
Interaction and Functional Analysis of Drosophila Mcm10
(East Carolina University, 2010)In eukaryotic cells, DNA replication and the subsequent packaging of DNA into specific chromatin states are essential processes for the transmission of genetic material and genomic stability which may be linked by interactions ... -
Psf2, a member of the heterotetrameric GINS Complex, plays a role in cell cycle progression and maintenance of genomic integrity
(East Carolina University, 2010)Multiple proteins are involved in the complete and accurate replication of the genome during S phase of the cell cycle. At the G1/S phase transition, the heterotetrameric GINS complex is recruited to the origin, and ... -
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 ...
