In a story of his life Les reflects on what he
has gained and what he has lost while seeking success in
the moving and shifting of military and academic life
through homes and schools all over the United States.
He describes himself as between races, languages, and
cultures.
Perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne) - white clover
(Trifolium repens) hill-land pastures were grazed at
different times in the winter to study the effect of time
of winter grazing on plant response and forage production.
The same pastures were grazed by sheep once in early
December, January, February, March, or April...
Christian communities vary widely in their degrees of acceptability or apprehensiveness toward newly developing technologies, ultimately aiming to help individuals optimally grow in their relationships to God and with others. Technologies viewed as conducive to accomplishing these goals are more likely to be accepted by Christian communities. Technologies viewed as...
Mitotic recombination is a common autosomal mutation in mammalian cells involving crossover events between homologous chromosomes. This process can convert a cell with a heterozygous deficiency to one with a homozygous deficiency, and thus often represents the second step in tumor suppressor gene inactivation. In this study I examined the...
DNA damage, if not repaired, can become a mutation. Mutation
accumulation is associated with initiation and progression of tumorigenesis. DNA
mismatch repair (MMR) is required for maintaining genetic stability by repairing
replication errors. Biochemical studies have shown that MMR also recognizes
mismatch-causing DNA lesions, suggesting the role of MMR in...
The multistage model of carcinogenesis states that an accumulation of mutations in genes that are important for maintaining cellular homeostasis may lead to cancer. A specific type of mutation observed in particular types of cancer is the CC-->TT mutation found in the TP53 gene of patients with basal or squamous...
The thesis area is located in north-central Oregon approximately 20 km west of the town of Mitchell. The rocks exposed in the area belong to the Clarno Formation. This study supports the informal reclassification of the Clarno to Group status, composed of an Upper and Lower Clarno Formation. An angular...
