A freshwater cyanophage whose genome indicates close relationships to photosynthetic marine cyanomyophages

Creator:: Dreher, Theo W., Brown, Nathan, Bozarth, Connie S., Schwartz, Andrew D., Riscoe, Erin, Thrash, Cameron, Bennett, Samuel E., Tzeng, Shin-Cheng, and Maier, Claudia S.
Abstract:: Bacteriophage S-CRM01 has been isolated from a freshwater strain of Synechococcus and shown to be present in the upper Klamath River valley in northern California and Oregon. The genome of this lytic T4-like phage has a 178,563 bp circular genetic map with 297 predicted protein-coding genes and 33 tRNA genes...

Age-related decrease in resilience against acute redox cycling agents: Critical role of declining GSH-dependent detoxification capacity

Creator:: Thomas, Nicholas O.
Abstract:: Over the past century, life expectancy in the United States has dramatically increased leading to an increasingly aging population with people reaching, and spending more years in ‘old age’. While this unprecedented shift in population demographics represents great strides for humanity, it is not without cost. One consequence of longer...

Bioinformatics applied to freshwater cyanobacterial blooms and cyanophage

Creator:: Schwartz, Andrew D.
Abstract:: Freshwater cyanobacterial blooms are a nuisance and health threat in the Pacific Northwest. The accepted methods of characterizing these blooms by microscopic cell counts cannot differentiate between toxic and non-toxic strains of the cyanobacterium Microcystis. Also, there is limited understanding of freshwater cyanophage that may control bloom dynamics. In order...

Characterization of the pathogenicity and phylogeny of members of the Rhodococcus genus

Creator:: Creason, Allison L.
Abstract:: Plant pathogenic Rhodococcus species are persistent pathogens able to cause severe growth deformities on a large range of hosts. The most well studied species, R. fascians is predicted by current models to synthesize a mixture of cytokinins that act to directly perturb the hosts' hormone balances, which results in abnormal...

Comparative Genome Structure, Secondary Metabolite, and Effector Coding Capacity across Cochliobolus Pathogens

Creator:: Condon, Bradford J., Leng, Yueqiang, Wu, Dongliang, Bushley, Kathryn E., Ohm, Robin A., Otillar, Robert, Martin, Joel, Schackwitz, Wendy, Grimwood, Jane, MohdZainudin, NurAinIzzati, Xue, Chunsheng, Wang, Rui, Manning, Viola A., Dhillon, Braham, Tu, Zheng Jin, Steffenson, Brian J., Salamov, Asaf, Sun, Hui, Lowry, Steve, LaButti, Kurt, Han, James, Copeland, Alex, Lindquist, Erika, Barry, Kerrie, Schmutz, Jeremy, Baker, Scott E., Ciuffetti, Lynda M., Grigoriev, Igor V., Zhong, Shaobin, and Turgeon, B. Gillian
Abstract:: The genomes of five Cochliobolus heterostrophus strains, two Cochliobolus sativus strains, three additional Cochliobolus species (Cochliobolus victoriae, Cochliobolus carbonum, Cochliobolus miyabeanus), and closely related Setosphaeria turcica were sequenced at the Joint Genome Institute (JGI). The datasets were used to identify SNPs between strains and species, unique genomic regions, core secondary...

Continuous Flow Microwave-Assisted Synthesis as a Potentially Scalable Nanomanufacturing Approach

Creator:: Albuquerque, Gustavo Henrique T. C. de
Abstract:: The development of nanomaterials and the potential enhancement of their chemical, mechanical, electrical, and optical properties have led to the investigation of methods for their synthesis at lower cost with enhanced performance for next generation devices. Along with the pursuit of new materials that exhibit properties of interest, industry requires...

Contrasting patterns of evolution following whole genome versus tandem duplication events in Populus

Creator:: Rodgers-Melnick, Eli, Mane, Shrinivasrao P., Dharmawardhana, Palitha, Slavov, Gancho T., Crasta, Oswald R., Strauss, Steven H., Brunner, Amy M., and DiFazio, Stephen P.
Abstract:: Comparative analysis of multiple angiosperm genomes has implicated gene duplication in the expansion and diversification of many gene families. However, empirical data and theory suggest that whole-genome and small-scale duplication events differ with respect to the types of genes preserved as duplicate pairs. We compared gene duplicates resulting from a...

Deciphering the Function of New Gonorrhea Vaccine Candidates in Cell Envelope Homeostasis

Creator:: Baarda, Benjamin I.
Abstract:: Neisseria gonorrhoeae is the sexually transmitted pathogen responsible for millions of cases of gonorrhea worldwide each year. Rapidly-spreading antibiotic resistance is diminishing the ability to effectively treat a disease with significant consequences to female and male reproductive health, as well as to neonatal well-being. A protective vaccine has the potential...

Effects of small molecule ligands on the conformational dynamics of the Farnesoid X Receptor ligand binding domain (FXR-LBD)

Creator:: Yang, Liping
Abstract:: The Farnesoid X Receptor (FXR) is a member of the nuclear receptor superfamily of transcription factors that plays a key role in the regulation of bile acids, lipid and glucose metabolisms. The regulative function of FXR is governed by conformational changes of the ligand binding domain (LBD) upon ligand binding....

Electric Machine Capability Characterization for Actuators in Disaster Response Robots

Creator:: Li, Qianyun
Abstract:: Disaster response robots need to be simultaneously able to survive extreme environment and complete the mission efficiently and robustly. One of the determinants is the performance of the actuators in each joint, which drive the robot to the desired motion accurately. In robotics society, people usually build their robots directly...
