Antioxidative Effects of Primary Structure Modification of a Tuna Backbone Derived Peptide

Creator:

Gopinatth, Varun

Abstract:

In biological systems, antioxidants are bioactive compounds that protect against oxidation of lipids, proteins, and DNA. Natural antioxidant peptides are often purified and isolated from proteins as a less toxic alternative to synthetic peptides, but the mechanisms behind their activity are not well understood. The purpose of this study is...

Natural history and evolution of a color polymorphism in Rana pipiens, the northern leopard frog

Creator:

Hoffman, Eric A.

Abstract:

A primary goal of population genetics is to identify the role of microevolutionary forces in producing observed patterns of molecular and phenotypic variation. I conducted four studies in the northern leopard frog, Rana pipiens, to determine just how mutation, migration, genetic drift, and selection influenced, genetic structure of mitochondrial DNA...
