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 ... -
Molecular Epidemiology of MRSA Among Patients and Employees in a Surgical Intensive Care Unit
(East Carolina University, 2011)Methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) is a pervasive drug resistant human pathogen and has become widespread in hospitals around the world. MRSA infections cause approximately 19,000 deaths among hospitalized ... -
Molecular evolution of venom proteins in Ctenidae (Order: Araneae) spiders
(East Carolina University, 2021-01-20)Spiders comprise the largest group of venomous animals and are a pivotal component of the global ecosystem with approximately 50,000 species spread across nearly every habitat on Earth. The family Ctenidae Keyserling, 1877 ... -
Molecular phylogenetic evidence for a mimetic radiation in Peruvian poison frogs supports a Müllerian mimicry hypothesis.
(East Carolina University, 2001-12-07)Examples of Müllerian mimicry, in which resemblance between unpalatable species confers mutual benefit, are rare in vertebrates. Strong comparative evidence for mimicry is found when the colour and pattern of a single ... -
MONITORING FISH SPAWNING LOCATIONS AND MARINE MAMMAL SOUNDS WITH PASSIVE ACOUSTIC RECORDER ON A WAVE GLIDER
(2019-07-08)Remote observations of marine animal behavior have one distinct advantage over direct observations: the observer is not present to disturb the animals. There are no vessel noises, no diver’s bubbles, no people present that ... -
A Monte Carlo Evaluation of the Application of Variance Partitioning to the Assessment of Construct-related Validity
(East Carolina University, 2012)The present study presents a Monte Carlo evaluation of the application of variance partitioning to the assessment of the construct-related validity of assessment center (AC) post exercise dimension ratings (PEDRs). Data ...
