Transcriptional Analysis of the Bacteroides fragilis Starch Utilization Operon, osuA
(East Carolina University, 2011)The opportunistic pathogen Bacteroides fragilis is a symbiotic organism that inhabits the human gastrointestinal tract where it utilizes dietary and host-derived polysaccharides as carbon and energy sources. If abdominal ... -
Transcriptome sequencing of Crucihimalaya himalaica (Brassicaceae) reveals how Arabidopsis close relative adapt to the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau
(2016-02)The extreme environment of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau (QTP) provides an ideal natural laboratory for studies on adaptive evolution. Few genome/transcriptome based studies have been conducted on how plants adapt to the ... -

Trophically transmitted parasites as “cross-taxon surrogates” of biodiversity in coastal environments
(East Carolina University, 2022-06-01)Parasitism is a highly successful life history strategy, and estimates suggest that as much as 40% of life on earth is parasitic. Healthy ecosystems have high parasite diversity, which in turn reflects underlying patterns ... -
Tumor Growth Induces Oxidative Clustered DNA Lesions Damage in Distant Mouse Tissue in vivo
(East Carolina University, 2010)Our goal was to ascertain if DNA damage induced by oxidative stress is capable of being exploited as a precancerous or cancer biomarker. The specific DNA damage that we assessed was oxidatively induced non-DSB clustered ...
