  • Cytoskeletal regulation in cell motility and invasion

    Creator:
    Jang, Hyo Sang
    Abstract:
    Cell motility and invasion are important for development, immunity, wound healing, and tumor cell metastasis. Cells on two dimensional substrates migrate in three steps: protrusion of the front end, translocation of the cell body, and retraction of the rear end. For cells to migrate efficiently, these steps need to be...

  • Deoxyribonucleotides as determinants of DNA replication fidelity in bacteriophage T4

    Creator:
    Sargent, Roy Geoffrey
    Abstract:
    Imbalanced deoxyribonucleoside triphosphate (dNTP) pools are mutagenic for DNA synthesis in both intact cells and cell-free replication systems. Almost certainly, such mutagenesis involves competition between correctly and incorrectly base-paired precursors at replication sites. However, there are certain differences between the intact cell and cell-free systems that do not always allow...

  • Changes in enzyme activities of the isoprenoid pathway in germinating Pisum sativum

    Creator:
    Green, Terrence Robert, 1944-
    Abstract:
    The nature of the isoprenoid pathway and diversity of biologically significant products suggests that the pathway may be highly regulated, particularly under stress conditions, where the availability of high energy intermediates is limited. It was postulated that germinating seeds suffer from a limited supply of available energy and must therefore...

  • Protocols, pathways, peptides and the aorta : relationship to atherosclerosis

    Creator:
    Walsh, Marilyn L.
    Abstract:
    The vascular system transports components essential to the survival of the individual and acts as a barrier to substances that may injure the organism. Atherosclerosis is a dynamic, lesion producing disease of the arterial system that compromises the functioning of the organ by occlusive and thrombogenic processes. This investigation was...
