Variation in female reproductive success in amphibians

Creator:: Dyal, Leslie A.
Abstract:: My dissertation focuses on the factors that influence variation in female reproductive success in plethodontid salamanders and in toads. Variation in reproductive success fuels evolutionary change. Although, females often have been overlooked in studies of reproductive success due to perceived lower levels of variation when compared to variation in male...

The asymmetric binding of Actinomycin D to DNA hexamers

Creator:: Ivancic, Monika
Abstract:: The solution structure determination of DNA molecules has been an important part of structural biology. NMR solution structures are a complement to structures solved via X-ray crystallography; the two methods are the only ways of obtaining three dimensional coordinates of macromolecules. Because of the nature of the molecule, the solution...

Crustal architecture and magma dynamics in a large continental magmatic system : a case study of the Purico-Chascon Volcanic Complex, Northern Chile

Creator:: Burns, Dale H.
Abstract:: The ~1 Myr history of the Purico-Chascon volcanic complex (PCVC) records significant changes in the production and storage of magmas in the crust. At ~1 Ma activity at the PCVC initiated with the eruption of a large 80-100 km³ crystal-rich dacite ignimbrite with restricted whole rock ⁸⁷Sr/⁸⁶Sr isotope ratios between...

Complex architecture of a closterovirus virion

Creator:: Napuli, Alberto J.
Abstract:: In this investigation we examined the molecular architecture and functions associated with the virion components of the Beet yellows virus (BYV), family Closteroviridae. The BYV virions are filamentous particles composed of two coat proteins, the major coat protein (CP), which encapsidates the majority of the genome, and the minor coat...

The language of mathematics : a functional definition and the development of an instrument of measure teacher perceived self-efficacy

Creator:: Gray, Virginia
Abstract:: Mathematics is permeated with language; it appears in the form of new words and some old words with new meanings. There are new symbols to be able to read and consume; much information is presented in tabular or graphic form, and finally the language in a mathematics class has its...

A simulation model of wood dynamics in Pacific Northwest streams

Creator:: Meleason, Mark Alan
Abstract:: Conceptually, the dynamics of wood in streams can be viewed in terms of input and in-channel processes. Input processes are associated with both the riparian (tree fall, bank cutting, windthrow) and upslope forests (mass failures). In-channel processes include log breakage, movement, and decomposition. A mechanistic view of these processes is...

The role of subduction fluids in generating compositionally diverse basalts in the Cascadia subduction zone

Creator:: Rowe, Michael C.
Abstract:: The primary goal of this study is to assess the impact of a subduction component added to the mantle wedge beneath the Oregon Cascades to the composition and fO2 of primitive Cascade basalts. Olivine-hosted melt inclusions from compositionally diverse basalts across the Cascade arc (~100 km) are utilized in an...

Bioactive natural products from marine algae

Creator:: Tan, Lik Tong
Abstract:: This thesis is an account of my investigation on the natural products deriving from various marine algae and has resulted in the discovery of thirteen novel bioactive metabolites. Isolation and characterization of these unique molecules were carried out using different chromatographic techniques and by careful analyses of 1D and 2D...

Palmitylation of vaccinia virus proteins : identification of modification sites and biological relevance

Creator:: Grosenbach, Douglas W.
Abstract:: Vaccinia virus encodes at least eight proteins that are modified post-translationally by the addition of a 16-carbon saturated fatty acid through thioester linkage to cysteine residues. This is referred to as palmitylation of proteins. The purpose of this work was to gain an understanding of palmitylation, focusing on what defined...
