  • Statistical analysis of RNA sequencing count data

    Creator:
    Mi, Gu
    Abstract:
    RNA-Sequencing (RNA-Seq) has rapidly become the de facto technique in transcriptome studies. However, established statistical methods for analyzing experimental and observational microarray studies need to be revised or completely re-invented to accommodate RNA-Seq data's unique characteristics. In this dissertation, we focus on statistical analyses performed at two particular stages in...

  • Investigation of cis-acting RNA element role in bovine viral diarrhea virus replication

    Creator:
    Ly, David
    Abstract:
    Bovine viral diarrhea virus (BVDV) is an enveloped, single-stranded positive-sense RNA virus. The BVDV genome is about 12.5 kb long and consists of a single open reading frame (ORF) flanked by untranslated regions at the 5' and 3' ends (5'-UTR and 3'- UTR, respectively). To investigate the role of cis-sequences...

  • Ultrafiltration Membrane Fouling in Side-stream Aerobic Granular Sludge Membrane Bioreactor

    Creator:
    Yang, Zhengjian
    Abstract:
    The integration of low-pressure membrane filtration and aerobic granular sludge (AGS) reactor leads to a novel environmental biotechnological process with strong potential to overcome membrane fouling and demonstrate excellent wastewater treatment performance. However, membrane fouling mechanisms in the AGS based membrane bioreactor (MBR) are lack of systematic elaboration. In the...

  • Interaction of the Respiratory Syncytial Virus Matrix Protein and the Cellular Adaptor Protein Complex 3µ Subunit

    Creator:
    Ward, Casey J.
    Abstract:
    Respiratory Syncytial Virus (RSV) is a leading cause of bronchopneumonia in infants and elderly. Knowledge of viral and host protein interactions is important for better understanding of the viral pathogenesis and may lead to development of novel therapeutic drugs. Here, we show that RSV Matrix (M) protein interacts with cellular...

  • An experimental study on tensile properties of cellulose nanocrystal reinforced epoxy nanocomposite material

    Creator:
    Zeng, Jin
    Abstract:
    Epoxy resin is a thermosetting resin that is commonly used as composite matrix. Epoxy composite materials are well utilized in industries, such as aerospace, due to their good mechanical properties. Nano-scale filler reinforced polymer composite materials have been intensively researched in recent decades. Cellulose nanocrystals (CNXLs) are a type of...

  • Continuous and rapid synthesis of nanoclusters and nanocrystals using scalable microstructured reactors

    Creator:
    Jin, Hyung Dae
    Abstract:
    Recent advances in nanocrystalline materials production are expected to impact the development of next generation low-cost and/or high efficiency solar cells. For example, semiconductor nanocrystal inks are used to lower the fabrication cost of the absorber layers of the solar cells. In addition, some quantum confined nanocrystals display electron-hole pair...

  • Academic achievement trajectories of adolescents from Mexican and East Asian immigrant families

    Creator:
    Jeong, Yu Jin
    Abstract:
    Academic achievement of adolescent children is directly associated with their success in adulthood. Little is known, however, regarding how adolescents in immigrant families academically grow over time and what factors influence the trajectories. Drawing on the National Educational Longitudinal Survey 1988 (NELS: 88), this study aimed to: 1) identify the...

  • Bacterial and Host Factors Contributing to Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis Persistent Infection

    Creator:
    Phillips, Ida L.
    Abstract:
    Mycobacterium avium subspecies paratuberculosis (MAP) is the causative agent of Johne’s disease, a chronic granulomatous enteritis that plagues domestic and wild ruminants globally. During the silent stages of Johne’s disease, infected animals intermittently shed bacteria for years prior to clinical diagnosis during advanced disease stages. This strategy allows MAP to...

  • Gene expression in the peripartum canine placenta

    Creator:
    Fellows, Elizabeth Jane
    Abstract:
    This research investigated gene expression in the canine placenta during the peripartum period. Previous studies have recognized molecular changes that occur in the placenta around the time of placental release in other species, but no study has looked at gene expression in the late gestation canine placenta. Of particular significance...

    Creator:
    Cook, Carson J.
    Abstract:
    The matrisome is an ensemble of genes that are highly relevant for characterizing the behavior of the extracellular matrix (ECM) during the onset and progression of many diseases. Recent advances in the definition of the matrisome, such as The Matrisome Project, have been instrumental in making more advanced resources available...
