Disturbances in a marine bacterioplankton system drive community assembly towards niche-based processes

Creator:: Vergin, Kevin L.
Abstract:: Over 100 monthly bacterioplankton DNA samples, from each of the surface and 200 m depths at the Bermuda Atlantic Time-series Study (BATS) site, were analyzed for community assembly processes. Correlation networks, filtered for potential autocorrelation artifacts, were constructed for each depth. Network characteristics for the two depths were remarkably similar...

The lipids of spore types B, E, and F and vegetative cell types E and F of Clostridium botulinum

Creator:: Kimble, Charles E.
Abstract:: The primary purpose of this investigation was to characterize the lipids of the spores and vegetative cells of Cl. botulinum. A second purpose was to explore the possibility that lipids might serve as a means of differentiating the chiefly proteolytic Cl. botulinum type B from the nonproteolytic Cl. botulinum types...

The Oregon sockeye salmon virus (IHN) : A. Replication and autointerference. B. The effect of temperature on infection in Kokanee salmon (Oncorhynchus nerka) and on virus stability

Creator:: McAllister, Philip E.
Abstract:: Since the isolation of the Oregon sockeye salmon virus (OSV) in 1958, extensive investigations have been undertaken to characterize the properties of this virus. The results of these investigations have indicated that OSV is a single-stranded RNA virus which contains essential lipids and has a density of 1.16 gm/cm³ in...

Investigations of regulatory T cell induction by 2, 3, 7, 8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin during a graft-versus-host response

Creator:: Marshall, Nikki B.
Abstract:: The immune toxicity of 2,3,7,8-Tetrachlorodibenzo-p-dioxin (TCDD) has been studied for over 35 years, but only recently has the profound immune suppression associated with TCDD exposure been linked to induction of regulatory T cells (Tregs). The effects of TCDD are mediated through binding the aryl hydrocarbon receptor (AhR), a ligand-activated transcription...

Comparative Genomics of Freshwater Bloom-Forming Cyanobacteria and Associated Organisms

Creator:: Driscoll, Connor B.
Abstract:: The advent of improved DNA sequencing technologies has allowed the analysis of various microbial communities. Bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacteria can produce toxins and taste-and-odor compounds that can negatively affect drinking water supplies. Here, I have employed second- and third-generation sequencing technologies to characterize bloom-forming freshwater cyanobacterial genomes and their associated heterotrophic...

Bacterial pathogens and associated toxins involved in erythrophore cell aggregation

Creator:: Hutchison, Janine R.
Abstract:: Current detection methods for bacterial contamination rely on structure based detection of proteins and nucleic acids. While these methods are easy to use and reliable, they cannot evaluate the toxicity of a sample and the potential to cause disease. Previously, erythrophore cells derived from Betta splendens had been suggested as...

The Effects of the Immunity Factor Relish on Aging Phenotypes in Drosophila melanogaster

Creator:: Kumar, Nandita
Abstract:: Aging is a complex biological phenomenon that alters many different physiological processes. Although many age-related phenotypes, such as neurodegeneration, weakening circadian rhythms, and inflammaging, are well-studied, the links between them are not. To elucidate these links we created an inflammation-like state in Drosophila melanogaster by overexpressing Relish (Rel), an NFκB...

A physiological approach to a rapid method for identifying C. botulinum

Creator:: Dyer, John Kaye
Abstract:: Disc gel electrophoresis of the vegatative cell -free extracts ofstrains of Clostridium botulinum types A, B, C, E, and F and therelated nontoxic group showed limited value as a means for identifyingthese closely related microorganisms, since separation,though not consistent in all cases, could only be based on the numberof protein...

Uncovering the mechanism of IL-4-mediated T cell survival

Creator:: Moscibrocki, Cathleen M.
Abstract:: Although IL-4 is a well-characterized multi-functional cytokine, its role as a survival factor in T cells is not completely understood. In an attempt to uncover IL-4-mediated survival, we studied caspase activation in primary mouse T lymphocytes undergoing death by neglect, activation-induced or steroid-induced cell death. Here, we identify the executioner...
