Functional analysis of novel β-catenin mutants

Creator:: Al-Fageeh, Mohamed B.
Abstract:: β-catenin is a multi functional protein that is involved in cell-cell adhesion and cell signaling. In non-stimulated cells, β-catenin is tightly down-regulated by GSK-3β-dependent phosphorylation at Ser and Thr residues, followed by rapid ubiquitination and proteasomal degradation. It is well established that mutations within the regulatory GSK-3β region lead to...

Ecological Forestry : A Critical Analysis

Creator:: Batavia, Chelsea
Abstract:: Although science is widely accepted as a fundamental source of information underlying decisions about forest management and conservation, considerably less attention has been paid to the inevitable role that normative values and beliefs play in such decisions. This thesis highlights the normative dimensions of "ecological forestry," a strategy of forest...

J.H. Woodger and the emergence of supra-empirical orders of discussion in early twentieth century biology

Creator:: Allen, Marshall William
Abstract:: This investigation attempts to demonstrate that the development of the early 20th century biological enterprise involved a striving for a unifying theoretical perspective. A skeletal substantiation of this is given by an overview of early 20th century biology in which some biologists began recognizing a multiplicity of different orders of...

Aspects of the field and developmental biology of a Apanteles yakutatensis, a parasitoid of Autographa californica

Creator:: Madar, Robert John
Abstract:: Behavioral and ecological aspects of the field and developmental biology of Apanteles yakutatensis (Ashm.), a primary larval parasite of the alfalfa looper, Autographa californica (Speyer), were investigated in 1980 and 1981. Populations of A. yakutatensis were found in commercial peppermint, alfalfa and crimson clover fields involving two areas (Willamette Valley,...

Conservation biology of Plagiobothrys hirtus (Boraginaceae) : evaluation of life history and population enhancement

Creator:: Amsberry, Kelly
Abstract:: Plagiobothrys hirtus (Boraginaceae) is a state and federally listed endangered plant found only in Douglas County, Oregon. This vernal pool endemic has historically been threatened by agricultural conversion of seasonal wetlands in the Sutherlin area, and is currently being eradicated as habitat is lost due to the rapid urban development...

The effects of harvesting Pacific hake (Merluccius productus) on the offshore community : the results of a multi-species model

Creator:: Gartz, Russell G.
Abstract:: The effects of harvesting Pacific hake (Merluccius productus) were examined with a multi-species numerical model composed of seven logistic growth equations coupled by a food web. The food web was composed of: California sea lions (Zalophus californianus), hake, sablefish (Anaplopoma fimbria), spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias), a generic rockfish species (Sebastes...
