Analysis of secondary structures in nucleic acid binding proteins and nuclear magnetic resonance investigation of helix propagation and residual motions in proteins

Creator:: Hicks, Joshua M.
Abstract:: This thesis involves analyses of 3₂-helices, a-helices and of the change in residual entropy of a protein upon chemical modification. Part of the long-term goal of understanding the formation, function and stability of proteins requires that all conformations be accurately assigned and structurally understood. By a statistical analysis of 258...

Accessibility of highly conserved RNA sequences of Escherichia coli 70S ribosomes and implications for developing antibacterial agents

Creator:: Rahman, Mohammad A.
Abstract:: Escherichia coli 16S-like ribosomal RNAs from eubacterial, archaebacterial and eukaryotic organisms have several universally conserved sequence zones which are proposed to be single-stranded. A clear function for all of these regions has not yet been defined. To evaluate the roles of these sequence zones in protein synthesis, knowledge of their...

Reactions of protein with phenols and quinones evaluation of amino acid modification and protein digestibility

Creator:: Wehr, Herbert Michael
Abstract:: Plant tissues contain a wide variety of phenolic compounds, frequently in high concentration. Both non-covalent association of intact and oxidized phenols and covalent linkage of oxidized phenols to protein occur. Such interactions can have important biochemical and nutritional significance. A model system approach was used to identify and quantitate amino...

Glutamate dehydrogenase : I.Flourescence polarization studies of the self-association. II.Flourescence and circular dichroism studies of the heterotropic interactions

Creator:: Malencik, Dean Anthony
Abstract:: Fluorescence polarization measurements on beef liver glutamate dehydrogenase conjugated with pyrene butyric acid demonstrate that the association of the enzyme is adequately described by a reversible indefinite association with a single equilibrium constant. The data obtained with protein concentrations up to 0.7 mg/ml in 0.05 M potassium phosphate, pH 7....

Towards the understanding of the function of the histone "tails" with respect to the structure, stability, and function of chromatin

Creator:: Dong, Feng
Abstract:: By using immobilized trypsin, I have been able to prepare well-defined, stable trypsinized nucleosomes. The difficulties of lacking of control in the extent of trypsinization, which were encountered in previous studies with the use of free trypsin, have been eliminated. The nucleosomes and oligonucleosomes prepared by immobilized trypsin are suitable...

Investigation of autophagy-assisted cell death in response to the cancer cell toxin coibamide A

Creator:: Tan, Michelle
Abstract:: Autophagy, a homeostatic degradation pathway, has a role in promoting cell survival under stress conditions, but can also promote cell death under conditions of sustained stress. This project investigates the cytotoxic potential of coibamide A and other natural products in autophagy-deficient and wild-type mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEFs). Wild-type MEFs were...

Interaction of the human Voltage-Dependent Anion Channel 1 protein (VDAC-1) with Mycobacterium avium and its role in bacterial survival within phagocytic cells

Creator:: Pham, Tuan
Abstract:: M. avium is an opportunistic pathogen that primarily infects macrophages. In order to survive within the macrophage, M. avium secretes proteins into the host cell cytoplasm to inhibit specific functions such as phagosome acidification, altering pathways as well as initiating apoptosis. However, little is known about how those secreted proteins...
