Characterization of Extracellular Polymeric Substances from Acidophilic Microbial Biofilms
(East Carolina University, 2010-05)We examined the chemical composition of extracellular polymeric substances (EPS) extracted from two natural microbial pellicle biofilms growing on acid mine drainage (AMD) solutions. The EPS obtained from a mid-developmental-stage ... -
CHARACTERIZATION OF MIGRATING NEURAL CREST CELLS FROM HINDBRAIN EXPLANTS IN ZEBRAFISH
(East Carolina University, 2010)Our lab was interested in creating a reproducible mechanism for obtaining neural crest cells in culture from cultured hindbrain explants of zebrafish. We have characterized the population of cells migrating from the ... -
Characterization of MiR319-Regulated TCPs in Maize Development
(East Carolina University, 1/13/16)Maize produces two inflorescences, the tassel and the ear, that are essential for reproduction. Both inflorescences arise from similar inflorescence primordia and are patterned largely by the same developmental regulators. ... -
Characterization of Pgrmcs and mPRs in oocyte maturation and ovulation in zebrafish (Danio rerio)
(East Carolina University, 2020-06-22)It is well known that progestins initiate important reproductive processes such as oocyte maturation and ovulation in vertebrates. Progestins exert functions through binding to progestin receptors. At least three families ... -
Characterization of Site-Directed Mutants in the Cytochrome c-550 Protein of Photosystem II
(East Carolina University, 2010)Photosynthesis is the process by which cyanobacteria, algae, and higher plants convert light energy to chemical energy via the biosynthesis of carbohydrates. Photosystem II is a multi-protein/pigment complex embedded in ... -
Characterization of Social Status-Dependent Neuromodulation in Zebrafish (Danio rerio)
(East Carolina University, 2017-06-28)In zebrafish (Danio rerio), social interactions between adult males consist of a series of aggressive encounters that ultimately lead to the formation of stable hierarchies of either socially dominant or subordinate animals. ...
