Survey of Cyanophages: A Study of the Bacteriophages associated with Pacific Northwest Cyanobacterial blooms

Creator:: Riscoe, Erin W.
Abstract:: Cyanobacterial blooms are a growing concern in the Pacific Northwest because of their threat to watershed health and drinking water supplies. Bacteriophages are pathogens of bacteria and may contribute to the growth and decline of seasonal blooms. Bacteriophage S-CRM01, a lytic T4-type myophage, has been isolated from a freshwater strain...

Identification of a compound series by high throughput screening capable of reversing the antiviral effect of Ribavirin in tissue culture

Creator:: Gallion, Jonathan
Abstract:: A compound series capable of reversing the antiviral effect of Ribavirin (RBV) against H1N1 was identified from a high throughput screen designed to discover compounds capable of increasing the fidelity of the RNA-dependent RNA polymerase (RDRP) n ribovirus quasispecies. Two lead compounds, RIC-1 (EC50 of 78.4 nM) and RIC-2 (EC50...

Comparative Growth Study of Toxic and Non-Toxic Microcystis aeruginosa Strains under Oxidative Stress Conditions

Creator:: Rajput, Neil
Abstract:: Toxic cyanobacterial blooms in freshwater sources are of increasing concern due to the production of toxins that pose a threat to human health. Both toxic and non-toxic strains of Microcystis aeruginosa cohabitate with one-another, in vivo. However, environmental conditions play a large role in determining the dominance of toxic or...

The Effect of Protein Nitration on Cell Survival Pathways in Schwann Cells

Creator:: Graumann, Oliver W.
Abstract:: Neurofibromatosis type 2 (NF2) is a genetic disorder caused by the inactivation of the merlin tumor suppressor gene. NF2 patients develop bilateral vestibular schwannomas (VS) and other nervous system tumors with no effective drug treatment option. In pathological conditions, including NF2, production of the oxidant peroxynitrite leads to protein tyrosine...

Gene-specific antibiotic development: Evaluating effectiveness and investigating antibiotic-resistant Escherichia coli mutants of phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers

Creator:: Puckett, Susan E.
Abstract:: Phosphorodiamidate morpholino oligomers (PMOs) are novel antisense drugs in the early stages of development. These synthetic DNA mimics contain the same bases found in DNA and anneal to RNA in a complementary fashion. PMOs have been designed that target genes responsible for producing essential proteins in organisms such as Escherichia...

Distribution of Chlorociboria species in riparian forests of Western Oregon

Creator:: Kramer, Olivia E.
Abstract:: Transects were run at five locations in the Benton County area searching for samples of Chlorociboria spp. on dead wood, with fifteen total samples found. Of these samples, eight samples had the wood species identified, with the majority found on Acer macrophyllum and one on Salix spp. The density of...

Establishing Caenorhabditis elegans as a model for Mycobacterium avium subspecieshominissuis infection and intestinal colonization

Creator:: Ziaie, Navid
Abstract:: Mycobacterium avium subspecies hominissuis (MAH) causes potentially lethal opportunistic infections in immunocompromised individuals. Lack of a good animal model system currently hinders in vivo study of MAH virulence. Here we applied the tractable organism Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans), as a surrogate host to study the virulence of MAH. Worms were...

Characterization of a Novel Metalloprotease Secreted by the Type II Secretion System in Vibrio cholerae

Creator:: Park, Bo R.
Abstract:: Vibrio cholerae, a Gram-negative bacterium, is the etiological agent of cholera. V. cholerae shuttles between the human host and the aquatic reservoir, where it associates with marine organisms such as copepods and vertebrate fish. The bacteria use the Type II Secretion System (T2SS) to release proteins that facilitate V. cholerae...

Portlanders' Cardiac Emergency Response Awareness

Creator:: Schue, Allison Joan
Abstract:: Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) are portable medical devices that can be used by laypersons to treat two common types of cardiac arrest. Awareness surrounding the use of AEDs and willingness to use them in emergency situations is documented in few populations. This investigation aimed to address this gap by gauging...
