protaTETHER – a method for the incorporation of variable linkers in protein fusions reveals impacts of linker flexibility in a PKAc‐GFP fusion protein
(2018-03-14)Protein fusions are of fundamental importance in the study of cellular biology and the elucidation of cell signaling pathways, and the importance of linkers for the proper function of protein fusions is well documented in ... -
Protection and Sensitization of Human Cells to Proton Radiation by Cerium Oxide Nanoparticles
(East Carolina University, 2017-07-17)In radiation therapy for the treatment of cancer, there is demand for novel approaches that will improve tumor cell killing while protecting healthy tissue. One such approach that has shown considerable promise is the ... -
Proteome quantification of cotton xylem sap suggests the mechanisms of potassium-deficiency-induced changes in plant resistance to environmental stresses
(2016-02)Proteomics was employed to investigate the molecular mechanisms of apoplastic response to potassium(K)-deficiency in cotton. Low K (LK) treatment significantly decreased the K and protein contents of xylem sap. Totally, ... -
PROTESTING THE POLICE: HOW SITUATIONAL THREATS ELICIT POLICE REPRESSION AT PROTEST EVENTS TARGETING THE POLICE.
(East Carolina University, 2022-05-13)Protests challenging the police pose a significant reputational threat to law enforcement. The threat hypothesis states that police repression is motivated by the desire to maintain social control, and when threats arise, ... -
Prothymosin-Alpha : Features of the protein sequence that contribute to the anti-HIV Activity
(East Carolina University, 2010)Prothymosin-alpha (ProT[alpha]) is a protein mainly located in the nucleus of the cells. Though its exact function is not known, it is believed to be involved in cell proliferation. The ability of this protein to inhibit ... -
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 ... -
PSYCHOLOGICAL CLIMATE AND WORK ADDICTION RISK : DO THE PERCEPTIONS OF OUR ORGANIZATIONS MATTER?
(East Carolina University, 2009)A workaholic, the word combination of work and alcoholic, has generally had a negative connotation in the research community. Many researchers believe that the workaholic's behavior is not healthy to the individual nor ... -
Psychological Implications of a Small Changes Approach to Weight Loss
(East Carolina University, 2011)While a small changes approach to weight management has shown promise in helping participants lose weight, the psychological impact of this approach has yet to be determined. The present study examines changes in depression, ... -
Psychological Responses and Behaviors During the Initial Stages of COVID-19 Among General US Population
(East Carolina University, 2021-10-04)Background: The novel coronavirus, COVID-19, has posed a major public health risk across the world. The threat of the virus and the resulting quarantine or "stay-home-orders," likely impacted physical and mental health ... -
Purifying Scorpion Antarease from E. coli
(East Carolina University, 2018-05-03)Vesicular trafficking is a system of intracellular transport that allows for the distribution and secretion of molecules. In the pancreas, normal secretory processes have been found to be interrupted by Antarease, a ...
