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. ... -
Characterization of the Bone Marrow Microenvironment During the Development of Triple Negative Breast Cancer Metastases
(East Carolina University, 2017-05-05)Triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is a subtype that lacks expression of progesterone and estrogen receptors, and does not over-express human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2). TNBC is not responsive to standard ... -
Characterization of the GINS subunit psf1 in Drosophila Melanogaster
(East Carolina University, 2010)GINS (Go Ichi Ni San; 5,1,2,3 in Japanese) is a heterotetrameric protein complex known to be essential for the establishment of DNA replication forks and the progression of the replisome. The GINS complex is known to be ...
