The focus of this dissertation was to understand protein function and structure ona molecular level. To do this successfully, a variety of biochemical and biophysicaltechniques were employed. A wide variety of techniques were applied to study theproteins of interest in this dissertation to probe protein-protein interactions, proteinfunction, protein structure, and...
Sedoheptulose 7-phosphate cyclases (SH7PCs) encompass three enzymes involved in producing the core cyclitol structures of pseudoglycosides and similar bioactive natural products. One such enzyme is ValA from Streptomyces hygroscopicus subsp. jinggangensis 5008 which makes 2-epi-5-epi-valiolone as part of the biosynthesis of the agricultural antifungal agent validamycin A. We present, as...

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...
Five solvents were used to resolubilize the fungal pigments of Chlorociboria aeruginosa and Scytalidium cuboideum, two common fungi used in the spalting of wood pieces. These solvents were tested as a replacement for dichloromethane in the pigment application process, via analysis of their ability to increase internal color coverage inside...

With the rapid development of new computer mediated technologies, instructors have more options of the modalities of responding to student writing. Whereas traditionally, responses have been written by hand, technological developments allow responses to take very different forms. Some of these technologies, such as word processing, mimic the text-on-page techniques...
This thesis – “The Sweet Roll: A Project in Podcasting Gaming News, Discussions and
Reviews” – assesses the current gaming scene, including games, gamers, news, and
reviews of gaming, and creates a pilot podcast The Sweet Roll as a demonstration and
discussion of what could be done better. Through a...
