  • Production of peptide growth factors by oncogene-transformed balb serum-free mouse embryo cells

    Creator:
    Chang, Yung-jin
    Abstract:
    DNA from the human squamous carcinoma cell line, SK-MES-1, and the plasmids, pUC EJ6.6 containing H-ras oncogene, pSVc-mycl containing cellular myc gene, pNRSac containing N-ras oncogene, pBR SV containing SV40 virus DNA, pSV2-neu containing neu oncogene and pSV2-neo containing neomycin resistant gene were used to transform Balb serum-free derived mouse...

  • Exogenous gene expression from heterologous promoters in fish cell cultures

    Creator:
    Sharps, Angela
    Abstract:
    Cell culture systems have provided many insights into eukaryotic gene expression and other biochemical mechanisms. Since the cell represents the smallest living unit of any organism it provides a desirable in vitro system, allowing biochemical studies without the complex physiology of an entire animal. However, processes involving intracellular mechanisms, such...

  • Purification and identification of a 100 kDa protein, which is tyrosine-phosphorylated by EGF stimulation in SFME cell

    Creator:
    Murayama, Kaoru
    Abstract:
    Serum-free mouse embryo (SFME) cells, which were derived from 16-day-old Balb/c mouse embryo brain, grow in absence of serum without losing genomic normality or proliferative potential, and require epidermal growth factor (EGF) for normal growth. EGF is a well studied mitogen that binds to a specific receptor on the cell...

  • Structure and stratigraphy of the Argenta area, Beaverhead County, Montana

    Creator:
    Hobbs, Billy Bob
    Abstract:
    The thesis area comprises 53 square miles located in Beaverhead County, Montana, and includes the Argenta mining district. Sedimentary and igneous rocks of the area range in age from Precambrian to Recent. The aggregate thickness of the sedimentary rocks is approximately 13,500 feet. The only systems not represented are Ordovician...

  • Employer-Provided Paid Parental Leave and Material Hardship after Childbirth Among Oregon Mothers

    Creator:
    De Pierola, Ines
    Abstract:
    Paid parental leave programs can buffer the effects of childbirth-related material hardship for families. However, many mothers in the United States lack access to paid leave, particularly those from ethnic and racial minority groups. Guided by R. D. Conger and Elder’s (1994) family stress model of economic hardship (FSM), this...

  • Environmental influences on monoterpenes and phenolics of Mentha piperita

    Creator:
    Yao, Cheng C.
    Abstract:
    Vegetatively propagated peppermint (Mentha piperita L., cv. Black Mitcham) was used to determine the effects of night temperatures (8°C vs 25°C) on the plant growth in terms of fresh weight and leaf area, and on metabolite contents. The plants were sampled after 14 days, 21 days and 28 days in...

  • Substitution of germanium for boron in suspension-cultured carrot cells

    Creator:
    Durst, Robert W.
    Abstract:
    Boron has been recognized since 1923 as an essential micronutrient for vascular plants, but its function is still not known. Many diverse roles have been proposed, but none of these has been definitively shown. Problems that have made the study of the function of boron difficult include, no useful radioisotope,...

  • Parents' social expectations as correlates of children's peer relations

    Creator:
    Pennington, Darren C.
    Abstract:
    Recent peer relations studies that have included parents as subjects have pointed to supporting behaviors performed by parents and their role in the development of children's peer relations. Findings from these studies have been similar to explanations of expectation effects. That is, expectation holders support their expectations by behaving in...

  • Daily and alternate day supplementation of urea of biuret to ruminants consuming low-quality forage

    Creator:
    Currier, Thomas A.
    Abstract:
    Data is limited evaluating infrequent supplementation of urea or biuret to ruminants consuming low-quality forage (<6% crude protein). Therefore, a series of experiments were designed to compare the effects of daily (D) and alternate day (2D) supplementation of two non-protein nitrogen (NPN) sources (urea or biuret) to ruminants consuming low-quality...
