An Investigation into the Functional Properties of the Deafness Causing Protein Otoferlin

Creator:: Manchanda, Aayushi
Abstract:: Otoferlin is a C2-domain, transmembrane protein whose mutated form is responsible for the DFNB9 subtype of prelingual hearing impairment. Mutations in otoferlin cause an autosomal recessive, non-syndromic form of deafness that is characterized by auditory neuropathy/ auditory dissynchrony (AN/AD), meaning that the outer hair cells (OHCs) are normal, and the...

Epidemiology, Etiology, Genetics and Predictive Surveillance Modeling of the Deer Chewing Louse Damalinia (Cervicola) Species

Creator:: Mortenson, Jack A.
Abstract:: A seasonal hair-loss syndrome of native deer began to occur in the Pacific Northwest United States in the mid-1990s. Clinical manifestations of the disease typically include large numbers of chewing lice on Columbia Black-tailed deer (Odocoileus hemionus columbianus) and Columbia White-tailed deer (Odocoileus virginianus leucurus). Expenditure of energy responding to...

Evaluation of grapevine red blotch virus epidemiology with reference to potential insect vectors

Creator:: Dalton, Daniel T.
Abstract:: Grapevine red blotch virus (GRBV), the causal agent of red blotch disease (RBD) in grapevine, Vitis vinifera L., is an emerging pathogen of significance to the wine grape industry of Oregon, USA. To address knowledge gaps of GRBV epidemiology, spread of GRBV was evaluated in Oregon vineyards over four years....

Empirical Analyses of Forestry Interactions with Climate Uncertainty and Threatened Species

Creator:: Johnson, Kelsey K.
Abstract:: Forests are highly valuable resources providing both timber as well as many non-use values like habitat for various endangered and threatened species, carbon sequestration, and recreation, to name a few. Given that there are 765 million acres of forestland in the United States, almost 60% of which are privately owned,...

Conformational Consequences: Calcium Regulates the Association Between Dysferlin C2A & PI(4,5)P2

Creator:: Otto, Shauna C.
Abstract:: Dysferlin is a ∼230 kDa terminally anchored membrane protein that is ubiquitously expressed, but is particularly enriched in skeletal and cardiac muscle tissue. Mutations covering the length of the protein have been linked to muscle wasting diseases including limb-girdle muscular dystrophy and Myoshi myopathy. Dysferlin has been shown to play...

Inclusion Fusion and Genetic Recombination: Bridging the Gap Between the Chlamydiae

Creator:: Garvin, Lotisha E.
Abstract:: Chlamydia is an obligate intracellular bacterial pathogen that causes a variety of disease in animals and humans worldwide. Veterinary chlamydial pathogens can lead to chronic infections and serious consequences that result in millions of dollars of losses in animals and resources in the agricultural industry in countries that rear ruminants....

Elucidating the Patterns of Cooccurrence, Spatial Structuring, and Impact on Fermentation Metabolism in Kombucha Microbial Communities

Creator:: Harrison, Keisha Rose
Abstract:: This dissertation investigates the microbial diversity and factors influencing the assembly of microbial communities in kombucha production, using a combination of 1H Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Spectroscopy, 16S and ITS rRNA metabarcoding, and traditional culture-based microbiological methods. It also explores the diversity of kombucha starter cultures through shotgun sequencing and metabarcoding...

Spatiotemporal Distributions of Bacteria in the Cheddar Production Environment

Creator:: Johnson, Jared D.
Abstract:: Given the many significant roles that bacteria play in modern food manufacturing, it is crucial that we have a fundamental understanding of how bacterial communities assemble and behave in the food manufacturing environment. The focus of this dissertation was to investigate both the spatial and temporal distributions of microbial communities...

Insights into the pathology and epidemiology of Phytophthora ramorum, causal agent of sudden oak death

Creator:: Daniels, Hazel A.
Abstract:: Sudden oak death is caused by the clonally reproducing generalist oomycete Phytophthora ramorum. The pathogen can infect more than 130 different plant hosts including Quercus spp., Larix kaempferi, and Notholithocarpus densiflorus, as well as common nursery genera such as Rhododendron and Camelia, where it causes symptoms ranging from bleeding cankers...

Trends in Emergency Medical Service Activations for Suicide Attempts in Adolescents Before and After the Start of the COVID-19 Pandemic: An AutoRegressive Integrated Moving Average (ARIMA) Time-Series Analysis

Creator:: Johnson, Kelly M.
Abstract:: The coronavirus pandemic and its associated public health response resulted in disruptions in daily life as well as financial and other insecurities. This corresponded with an increase in adverse mental health outcomes in adolescents in the United States, including a temporary increase in suicidal ideation and behaviors. The pandemic also...
