  • Characterization of different forms of lysophospholipase in barley

    Creator:
    Lundgard, Robert
    Abstract:
    During barley germination, α-amylase and other hydrolases are synthesized in the aleurone layer and secreted into the starchy endosperm. As starch is degraded by amylases, lysophospholipids are released from inclusion complexes with the starch and undergo hydrolysis by a lysophospholipase (LPL) activity. Studies with embryo-free half seeds and isolated aleurone...

  • Oligoribonucleotides directed at ribosomal protein binding sites as inhibitors of ribosomal small subunit assembly and as possible antibiotics

    Creator:
    Thompson, Cynthia Sue
    Abstract:
    The effects of oligoribonucleotides of identical or similar sequences to a ribosomal protein binding site, specifically S8, on prokaryotic 30S ribosomal assembly were investigated in Escherichia coli. The oligoribonucleotides were expected to bind to the target protein S8 and block its incorporation into the 30S subunit, resulting in a nonfunctional...

  • Seasonal thermoregulation in the dark-eyed junco (Passeriformes: Junco hyemalis)

    Creator:
    Swanson, David Leslie
    Abstract:
    Winters in north-temperate climates impose high thermogenic demands upon small birds which are met by seasonal acclimatization. This thesis investigates the extent and mechanisms of seasonal acclimatization in darkeyed juncos (Junco hyemalis) inhabiting western Oregon. Although insulation is significantly increased in winter, acclimatization is primarily metabolic. Increased metabolism is required...
