VALIDATION OF CANDIDATE GENES IN RESPONSE TO VERSICAN MANIPULATION IN DEVELOPING SYNOVIAL JOINTS
(East Carolina University, 2012)
Little is understood about the complex process of synovial joint formation in early limb development. It has been shown that versican is highly expressed in the extracellular matrix of these joints (Snow et al., 2005; ...
A Functional Analysis of microRNAs in Nicotiana tabacum
(East Carolina University, 2012)
MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are a newly discovered class of endogenous post-transcriptional gene regulators that are typically 20-22 nucleotides in length that do not code for proteins. MiRNAs regulate gene expression by either ...
Characterizing the vegetative phenotype of fzt maize mutant
(East Carolina University, 2012)
microRNAs are short, non-coding RNA strands that regulate gene expression post-transcriptionally in all multicellular organisms. miRNAs begin as a hairpin in the nucleus. The primary miRNA (pri-miRNA) and preliminary ...
