Analyses of noncanonical DNA structures

Creator:

Khuu, Patricia A.

Abstract:

The structural polymorphic nature of DNA has been long been recognized since the model of the right-handed B-DNA duplex proposed by James Watson and Francis Crick was accepted. Its malleability is thought to be critical in protein recognition and manipulation. In particular, it can form Holliday junctions, four-way DNA structural...

Symbiosis is the close and protracted interaction between organisms. The molecular interactions that occur during symbiosis are complex with multiple barriers that must be overcome. Many Gram-negative, host-associated bacteria use a type III secretion system to mediate associations with their eukaryotic hosts. This secretion system is a specialized apparatus for...
