ELECTROCHEMICAL DETECTION OF BENZO[A]PYRENE METABOLITE DNA DAMAGE : IMPLICATIONS OF NUCLEOBASE SEQUENCE AND ADDUCT STEREOCHEMISTRY
(East Carolina University, 2011)
Xenobiotics are chemical compounds introduced to living organisms that originate outside the body. A well-studied xenobiotic is benzo[a]pyrene (BP), a polyaromatic hydrocarbon (PAH) primarily introduced into the body via ...
Molecular Dynamics Studies of Point Mutations of Cardiac Troponin C and Annexin
(East Carolina University, 2015)
Calcium binding proteins are biologically important for their ability to convert changes in calcium ion concentration to functional changes in proteins. All calcium binding proteins use a calcium sensing motif that changes ...
Electrochemical Detection of Benzo[a]Pyrene-Induced DNA Damage at TP53 Oligomers : Impact of 5'-Methyl Cytosine and Bioactivation on the Genotoxicity Process
(East Carolina University, 2014)
DNA houses the blueprint that dictates how an organism will develop. However, DNA features numerous reactive sites that can be attacked by chemicals and radiation, resulting in DNA damage and possibly mutations. Chemical ...
