Transcriptional Activation of Bordetella Alcaligin Siderophore Genes Requires the AlcR Regulator with Alcaligin as Inducer
(East Carolina University, 2001-01)Genetic and biochemical studies have established that Fur and iron mediate repression of Bordetella alcaligin siderophore system (alc) genes under iron-replete nutritional growth conditions. In this study, transcriptional ... -
Transcriptional Analysis of the Bordetella Alcaligin Siderophore Biosynthesis Operon
(East Carolina University, 1998-02)The alc gene cluster of Bordetella pertussis includes three genes, alcA, alcB, and alcC, which are involved in alcaligin siderophore biosynthesis in response to iron starvation. The production of AlcA, AlcB, and AlcC in ... -

(East Carolina University, 2015)The gram-negative bacterium 'Pseudomonas aeruginosa' is an opportunistic pathogen that frequently causes nosocomial infections and serious chronic lung infections in cystic fibrosis patients. During infection 'P. aeruginosa' ... -
The Transcriptional Regulator Np20 Is the Zinc Uptake Regulator in
(2013)Zinc is essential for all bacteria, but excess amounts of the metal can have toxic effects. To address this, bacteria have developed tightly regulated zinc uptake systems, such as the ZnuABC zinc transporter which is ... -
Transfer Checklist: Improving Outcomes for Cardiac Intensive Care Patients
(2023-07-10)Patient transfers are common occurrences in hospital intensive care units. It is a complicated process, which, when inadequate, is associated with negative patient outcomes. These outcomes include medication errors, increased ... -
The Transfer Origin for Bacteroides Mobilizable Transposon Tn4555 Is Related to a Plasmid Family from Gram-Positive Bacteria
(East Carolina University, 1998-01)Conjugal transfer of Bacteroides mobilizable transposon Tn4555 was examined with an Escherichia coli-based assay system. It was shown that mobilization required the cis-acting oriTTn region and that the Tn4555 mobATn gene ... -
TRANSGENDER/GENDER NONBINARY STUDENTS WITH DISABILITIES: BEST PRACTICES FOR DISABILITY SUPPORT SERVICES PROVIDERS IN POSTSECONDARY EDUCATION
(East Carolina University, 2021-05-03)There are approximately 26,600 students of public higher education in the United States of America who identify as transgender/gender nonbinary and have at least one disability. Research has focused on these two marginalized ... -
Transitions of Care: Improving Discharge Teaching in Stroke Patients
(2020-04-22)Approximately 13% of individuals who experience a stroke require readmission shortly after discharge due to preventable causes. A patient factor for readmission is the patient’s health literacy level and stroke understanding. ... -
The transneuronal spread phenotype of herpes simplex virus type 1 infection of the mouse hind footpad.
(East Carolina University, 1997-03)The mouse hind footpad inoculation model has served as a standard laboratory system for the study of the neuropathogenesis of herpes simplex virus type 1 (HSV-1) infection. The temporal and spatial distribution of viral ... -
Transplant Coordinators' Perceived Impact of Availability of Multiple Generic Immunosuppression Therapies on Patients, Workload, and Posttransplant Maintenance Therapy
(2013)Background. No studies have evaluated the impact of multiple generic immunosuppression medications on transplant coordinators (TCs) and patients. Methods. A cross-sectional, multicenter online survey of TCs managing ... -
Transplantation and the Trauma Surgeon
(East Carolina University, 1990-11)The number of satisfactory vascular organs suitable for organ transplantation can be increased appreciably by a close working relationship between traumatologists and transplant surgeons. Benefits will derive from more ... -
Transplantation of GABAergic Neurons but not Astrocytes Induces Recovery of Sensorimotor Function in the Traumatically Injured Brain
