Calpain 2 regulates proteolysis of Akt in glioblastoma cell invasion

Creator:: Nguyen, Maria and Greenwood, Jeffrey
Abstract:: Glioblastoma multiforme is a form of primary brain cancer in humans with a 5 year survival rate of less than 4%. Glioblastoma cells are characterized by their highly invasive nature linked to mutations in key signaling proteins such as PTEN, resulting in loss of expression of this lipid phosphatase. When...

Antibiotic Resistance Gene Transfer in Oysters as a Result of Fecal Pollution

Creator:: Cooper, Rebecca
Abstract:: Antibiotic resistance is an increasing problem in many species of bacteria today, with pathogens an important focus. Fecal contamination of shellfish is already a concern due to potential pathogens. This report examines the possibility of resistance gene transfer between microbes, due to fecal bacteria, within the oyster. In this study,...

Predicting the effects of climate change : effects of thermal stress on seaweeds in the Galapagos rocky intertidal

Creator:: Harris, Alyssa L.
Abstract:: Because global warming is predicted to increase the severity of El Niño events in the future, understanding how warmer temperatures affect seaweed growth and the animals associated with seaweeds is important for predicting how marine ecosystems will change. The Galapagos Islands of Ecuador are considered a living laboratory for studying...

“SHOO FLY”: Reduce Pesticide Dependence with Knowledgeabout Drosophila suzukii

Creator:: Marek, Charlene Marie
Abstract:: Drosophila suzukii was a known pest of berries, grapes, and stone fruits in East Asia for almost a century. Yet in recent years it has successfully migrated throughout the United States, Mexico, and Europe due to globalized fruit trade. The invasive success of D. suzukii is causing unrest for fruit...

Two Advances in Practical Alternative Energy: Thermotolerant Hydrogenase Concentration and Methane Hydrate Grain Size Proxies.

Creator:: Sullivan, Nichole D.
Abstract:: Methane hydrates and biohydrogen are two disparate subjects that are of interest in the growing field of alternative energy research. However, before commercial use becomes a viable option, each has challenges that need to be overcome. Methane hydrates require large investments of time and capital to locate. In this thesis,...

Quantification of Dissolved Organic Carbon Loss Through Soil in Watershed 1

Creator:: Quandt, Dustin, Peterson, Kristin, Lajtha, Kate, and Bond, Barbara
Abstract:: Recent interest in the carbon dynamics of Earth demands precise quantification of carbon fluxes, such as dissolved organic carbon (DOC), that may reveal characteristics and responses of significant carbon pools to environmental change. As a component of a larger carbon budget project within HJ Andrews Experimental Forest we are quantifying...

Discrete-time quantum walk with two-step memory

Creator:: Jones, Christopher
Abstract:: We examine a discrete-time quantum walk with two-step memory for a particle on a one- dimensional infinite space. The walk is defined with a four-state memory space analogous to the two-state coin space commonly used in discrete time quantum walks, and a method is presented for calculating the time evolution...

Characterization of a Novel Metalloprotease Secreted by the Type II Secretion System in Vibrio cholerae

Creator:: Park, Bo R.
Abstract:: Vibrio cholerae, a Gram-negative bacterium, is the etiological agent of cholera. V. cholerae shuttles between the human host and the aquatic reservoir, where it associates with marine organisms such as copepods and vertebrate fish. The bacteria use the Type II Secretion System (T2SS) to release proteins that facilitate V. cholerae...

Characterization of the Sodium Transporting NADH:Quinone Oxidoreductase (NQR) in Vibrio cholerae

Creator:: Fassio, Sara R.
Abstract:: Vibrio cholerae is the causative agent of cholera, a serious diarrheal disease in developing countries. V. cholerae has a unique redox driven respiration-linked sodium pump, Na⁺ translocating NADH:quinone oxidoreductase (NQR). Several reports previously showed that NQR plays an important role in virulence, metabolism, and sodium homeostasis of V. cholerae. This...
