Molecular genetics and enzymology of secondary metabolite biosynthesis. I, Isolation of natural product biosynthesis gene clusters from symbiotic marine organisms. II, Enzymology of blasticidin S biosynthesis

Creator:: Grochowski, Laura L.
Abstract:: Molecular genetic and enzymological techniques have been employed to study secondary metabolite biosynthesis. These investigations have focused on two projects: the cloning and heterologous expression of biosynthetic gene clusters from unculturable marine organisms and the characterization of individual enzymes involved in the biosynthesis of the antifungal agent blasticidin S. The...

The mechanism of interaction of the linker histone with DNA and nucleosomes

Creator:: Ellen, Thomas Patrick
Abstract:: This dissertation examines the interaction of the linker histone with DNA and with nucleosomes. The first goal of the project was to characterize the interaction of the linker histone with DNA. Three factors previously reported to influence the linker histone's interaction with DNA were examined: ratio of linker histone to...

The effects of environmental stressors on cardiac gene expression and contractility in rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss)

Creator:: Momoda, Tracey S.
Abstract:: Rainbow trout (Oncorhynchus mykiss) experience a variety of stressors in their natural environment as well as in aquaculture that can have negative effects on their physiology. The effects of physiological stress and endocrine disruption have been well described in fish. However, there is a scarcity of information on the effects...

Unraveling tissue regeneration using chemical genetics

Creator:: Mathew, Lijoy K.
Abstract:: The emerging field of regenerative medicine is mainly approached by two different aspects. First is the use of stem cell based models to generate a suite of differentiated cells for therapeutic applications and the alternative approach is to utilize the non-mammalian models that have the inherent capacity to regenerate their...

Environmental complex mixtures modify benzo[a]pyrene and dibenzo[a,l]pyrene-induced carcinogenesis

Creator:: Courter, Lauren A.
Abstract:: Human exposure to the carcinogenic polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) benzo[a]pyrene (B[a]P) and dibenzo[a,l]pyrene (DB[a,l]P) is through environmental complex mixtures, such as urban dust particulate matter (UDPM) and diesel exhaust (DE), however the potency of these PAH within a mixture is not established. To determine the effect of these mixtures on...

Prospective Evaluation of the Lymph Node Proteome in Dogs with Multicentric Lymphoma Supplemented with Sulforaphane

Creator:: Parachini-Winter, Cyril
Abstract:: Lymphoma (LSA) is one of the most common canine malignancies, and is almost invariably a terminal disease. Epigenetic changes in canine and human lymphomas have been linked to disease progression and poor prognosis, leading to the development of epigenetic-targeted therapies which have shown promise in treating various forms of human...

Factors contributing to the formation of CC-->TT tandem mutations

Creator:: Skinner, Amy M.
Abstract:: The multistage model of carcinogenesis states that an accumulation of mutations in genes that are important for maintaining cellular homeostasis may lead to cancer. A specific type of mutation observed in particular types of cancer is the CC-->TT mutation found in the TP53 gene of patients with basal or squamous...

Role of Transcriptional Factor COUP-TF-interacting Proteins in Skin Permeability Barrier Development, and in Skin Carcinogenesis, and Role of Lipids in Atopic Dermatitis

Creator:: Li, Shan
Abstract:: Mammalian skin is the largest organ of the body and serves as a barrier to protect the body against chemical, mechanical and pathogenic insults as well as water loss. The epidermis is formed from the primitive ectoderm into a multilayered stratified epithelium, consisting of basal, spinous, granular and outermost cornified...

In vivo assessment of nanomaterial-induced toxicity using embryonic zebrafish

Creator:: Usenko, Crystal Y.
Abstract:: Due to their unique physical, chemical, and magnetic properties, nanomaterials have great potential for industrial development. There is a pressing need to develop rapid whole animal-based testing assays to assess the potential toxicity of engineered nanomaterials. To meet this challenge the embryonic zebrafish model was employed to determine the toxicity...
