Analyses of domains and domain fusions in human proto-oncogenes
(East Carolina University, 2009-03-17)Background: Understanding the constituent domains of oncogenes, their origins and their fusions may shed new light about the initiation and the development of cancers. Results: We have developed a computational pipeline ... -
Analyses of the oligopeptide transporter gene family in poplar and grape
(2011)Background Oligopeptide transporters (OPTs) are a group of membrane-localized proteins that have a broad range of substrate transport capabilities and that are thought to contribute to many biological processes. The OPT ... -
Analysis and recommendations for a comprehensive economic development strategy for the Mid-East Commission economic development district: Region "Q"
(2011-03)This document is intended to help the Mid-East Commission comply with the content requirements for the 2009 Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy (CEDS) documents as articulated by the U.S. Department of Commerce, ... -
Analysis of a 41-year data set : Environmental influences on the fish assemblages of Albemarle Sound, North Carolina
(East Carolina University, 2014)North Carolina both historically and currently maintains one of the most productive fishery resource basins in the nation. However, fish stocks are spatially and temporally variable in abundance and distribution in estuarine ... -
Analysis of Circular Dichroism and Linear Dichroism Spectroscopy
(East Carolina University, 2012)Circular Dichroism (CD) and Linear Dichroism (LD) spectroscopies measure the difference in absorption between left and right circularly polarized light and parallel and perpendicular linearly polarized light as a function ... -
Analysis of Complex DNA Damage Associated with Tumor Growth
(East Carolina University, 2012)The innate response of a fully functioning immune system's ability to recognize and react to the growth of a tumor by releasing reactive oxygen species (ROS) may lead to chronic inflammation in many cases. This chronic ... -
Analysis of Infrastructure Damage After Superstorm Sandy : A Case Study of Long Beach, NY
(East Carolina University, 2015)Although much is known about the geomorphology of barrier islands and how barrier islands respond to storm events, no research has considered the implications of dense development on storm damage patterns. This research ... -
Analysis of Myopodin in Hela Cervical Carcinoma Cells
(East Carolina University, 2014)Synaptopodin-2 is a proline-rich, actin-binding protein that exists in many isoforms. Due to its large proline content, synaptopodin-2 exists in a naturally unfolded state and possesses the characteristics of a hub protein. ... -
ANALYSIS OF OXYGENATED POLYCYCLIC AROMATIC HYDROCARBONS AND THEIR PARENT MOLECULES IN BIOCHAR AND ITS LEACHATES
(East Carolina University, 2017-12-13)Due to the increasing use of biochar as a soil amendment, the amount and composition of contaminants in biochar should be analyzed. Two of those suites of compounds in biochar are polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) ... -
Analysis of scn5Laa and scn5Lab Gene Function in Danio rerio (Zebrafish) Heart Development through TALENs/CRISPR-CAS9-mediated Gene Knockout
(East Carolina University, 2015)Research in our laboratory is focused on understanding the molecular developmental genetic effects of crude oil exposure on vertebrate embryogenesis. Our research has demonstrated that exposure of zebrafish embryos to ... -
Analysis of Sediment Erosion and Deposition Across High Marsh and Tide Channel Sites in Wellfleet, Massachusetts.
(East Carolina University, 2016-07-27)Bare spots associated with vegetation die-off along a tidal channel and adjacent marsh platform in the "Gut" in Wellfleet, MA area are a direct result of winter storms and increased crab herbivory. Sediment transport from ... -
An Analysis of Sex Differences in Empathy and Forgiveness
(East Carolina University, 2009)The relationships among sex, empathy, and forgiveness were examined. A sample of 108 undergraduates, aged 18 to 35 years, participated in interviews and completed a series of instruments to assess both state and trait ... -
ANALYSIS OF THE CULTURAL MODEL OF NUTRITION IN CENTRAL HONDURAS
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-05)Currently present is a lack of cultural competency of the diet, the roles of available food, and preferred food choices of Hondurans. This creates disconnect between the people receiving dietary information and those who ... -
Analysis of the hex regulon in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
(East Carolina University, 2012)Pseudomonas aeruginosa is an opportunistic pathogen whose defense mechanisms include biofilm production through carbohydrate metabolism. The activity of the enzymes in the hex regulon are required for catabolism of glucose ... -
AN ANALYSIS OF THE INFLUENCE OF NUCLEAR WEAPONS ON INTERNATIONAL CONFLICT
(2014)Perhaps no technological innovation in modern history made more of an impact on the course of international relations than the creation of the nuclear bomb. The question of its exact influence on international affairs is ...
