Towards Resolving Functional and Evolutionary Mysteries of the Large and Heterozygous Genome of Hop (Humulus lupulus) and the Cannabaceae Family Using Genomic Data Science

Creator:: Padgitt-Cobb, Lillian K.
Abstract:: Hop (Humulus lupulus L. var. lupulus) is a diploid, dioecious plant with an extensive history of cultivation and use in brewing, as a textile, and for its therapeutic properties. Hop is prized for its ability to produce a variety of aromatic and flavor compounds, as well as compounds with anti-microbial...

Defining the Role of Tyrosine Nitration in Biology with Genetic Code Expansion

Creator:: Porter, Joseph J.
Abstract:: The buildup of reactive oxygen species (ROS) and reactive nitrogen and oxygen species (RNS) is known as oxidative stress. Oxidative stress results in a wide variety of modification to biological macromolecules including nucleic acids, lipids, and proteins. For at least 30 years it has been known that high levels of...

Building a bridge from chromosomes to microtubules in Neurospora crassa

Creator:: Friedman, Steven
Abstract:: DNA is often described as the “blueprint for life”. In eukaryotes this information is contained within linear chromosomes of varying size and number. During cell division, the chromosomes must be faithfully segregated into each daughter cell to avoid disease and sustain life. This process is carried out by the kinetochore...

Model systems for structural investigations into peroxiredoxin catalysis, conformation change, and inactivation

Creator:: Perkins, Arden
Abstract:: Peroxiredoxin (Prx) enzymes catalyze the reduction of hydrogen peroxide, peroxynitrous acid, and organic peroxides, and are extremely efficient peroxidases, with k[subscript cat]/K[subscript M] on the order of 10⁷ - 10⁸ M⁻¹ s⁻¹. Besides their role in oxidative stress defense, evidence has accumulated that some eukaryotes, including humans, use Prxs as...

Intramolecular and intermolecular strand hybridization during adenovirus DNA replication

Creator:: Xu, Fu-yun
Abstract:: Adenovirus initiates strand-displacement DNA replication from origins located in identical inverted terminal repetitions (ITRs). Panhandle structures, formed by base-pairing between ITRs on the displaced strands, have been proposed as replication intermediates for complementary strand synthesis. Plasmid molecules containing a single adenovirus terminal sequence and specially arranged inverted repeat sequences were...

Structure and function of chromatin : studies at the nucleosome and nuclear matrix levels

Creator:: Shih, Ah Shing
Abstract:: Several levels of eukaryotic chromatin structure have been observed: the nucleosome, the 10 nm and 30 nm fibers and loop domains, apparently attached to the nuclear matrix. In this research, the structure and function of chromatin at two of these levels was investigated, with studies on both nucleosome positioning and...

Structural requirements for adenovirus DNA replication

Creator:: Hu, Chin-Hwa
Abstract:: The adenovirus replication origins reside in the inverted terminal repetition (ITR) sequences. Replication proceeds unidirectionally by a strand-displacement mechanism from either or both origins to produce duplex daughter DNA plus a displaced parental strand. The displaced strand can be duplicated by two different routes. The cis pathway involves intramolecular hybridization...

Sequence conversion during adenovirus DNA replication

Creator:: Bennett, Kelly L.
Abstract:: The work in this thesis has provided conclusive genetic evidence that "panhandle" intermediates form during adenovirus replication. Adenovirus chromosomes lacking 51 by from their left -hand termini are infectious and capable of regenerating the missing origin sequence. Yet if an entire inverted terminal repeat is removed, the adenovirus chromosome is...
