Voluntary alcohol consumption in male rhesus macaques suppresses cancellous bone remodeling

Creator:: Kahler-Quesada, Arianna M.
Abstract:: Background: Chronic heavy alcohol consumption is a risk factor for bone fracture. Using a non-human primate model of voluntary alcohol self-administration, we have recently shown that alcohol consumption suppresses intracortical bone remodeling. The current study extends this investigation to asses the effect of alcohol consumption on cancellous bone mass, architecture,...

Protein-protein interactions in the bacteriophage T4 dNTP synthetase complex

Creator:: Shen, Rongkun
Abstract:: The enzymes of dNTP synthesis in T4 infection associate to form a multienzyme complex, the T4 dNTP synthetase complex, facilitating the flow of metabolites en route to dNTPs, and their subsequent flow into DNA. Study of protein-protein interactions helps one to understand how the enzymes in the complex are organized...

The effect of hexachlorophene and related compounds on torula yeast glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase and some other dehydrogenase enzymes

Creator:: Wang, Jun-Lan
Abstract:: Low concentrations of hexachlorophene (HCP) inhibit a number of pyridine nucleotide-linked dehydrogenase enzymes. The I₅₀ HCP concentrations were 105 μM for pig heart isocitrate dehydrogenase (ICD), 65 μM for horse liver alcohol dehydrogenase, 39 μM for torula yeast glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PD), 6.0 μM for beef heart malate dehydrogenase, and 1.6...

Protein Disorder in the Evolution of Dynein Regulation

Creator:: Jie, Jing
Abstract:: Intrinsically disordered proteins (IDP) are a class of proteins that lack a three-dimensional structure and their prevalence and diverse functions in the cell have only been discovered relatively recently. The intermediate chain (IC) subunit of the microtubule motor protein complex dynein contains an N-terminal disordered region, N-IC, which is central...

DNA precu[r]sor compartmentation in mammalian cells : metabolic and anti-metabolic studies of nuclear and mitochondrial DNA synthesis

Creator:: Bestwick, Richard Keith
Abstract:: This dissertation describes an investigation of DNA precursor supply for mitochondrial and nuclear DNA synthesis in HeLa cells and Mouse L-cells. HeLa cells were used for the quantitation of cellular and mitochondrial deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) and ribonucleoside triphosphate (rNTP) pools and of changes in pools in response to treatment with...

Characterization of different forms of lysophospholipase in barley

Creator:: Lundgard, Robert
Abstract:: During barley germination, α-amylase and other hydrolases are synthesized in the aleurone layer and secreted into the starchy endosperm. As starch is degraded by amylases, lysophospholipids are released from inclusion complexes with the starch and undergo hydrolysis by a lysophospholipase (LPL) activity. Studies with embryo-free half seeds and isolated aleurone...

In vivo detoxification of acetic acid in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

Creator:: Ding, Jun
Abstract:: The studies described in this thesis were motivated by ongoing efforts to develop lignocellulosic biomass as an efficient and practical source of renewable energy. Enormous problems complicate these efforts to reduce reliance on greenhouse gas-generating fossil fuels. Simply obtaining the fermentable sugars available in the cellulose and hemicellulose components of...

Underlying Mechanisms of the Anti-inflammatory and Antioxidant Effects of Quercetin in Human Aortic Endothelial Cells : Implications for Vascular Inflammation and Atherosclerosis

Creator:: Li, Chuan
Abstract:: Atherosclerosis is the underlying cause of ischemic heart disease and stroke and is the leading cause of death worldwide, especially in developed countries. As an inflammatory disease of arteries in a hyperlipidemic milieu, expression of adhesion molecules, such as endothelial-leukocyte adhesion molecule-1 (E-selectin) and intercellular adhesion molecule-1 (ICAM-1), on endothelial...
