  • Investigations of gluten proteins from functional and historical perspective

    Creator:
    Zhang, Ying
    Abstract:
    Wheat (Triticum aestivum) is one of the world’s major staple food crops, with flour produced from starchy endosperm being used for breads, cakes, noodles and various other wheat-based foods. The unique bread making properties of wheat are primarily attributed to its gluten-forming storage proteins: gliadins and glutenins. This study investigated...

    Li, Mingxin
    Abstract:
    The present highway funding system, especially fuel taxes, may become less reliable revenue sources in the future, while the transportation public agencies do not have the sufficient financial resources needed to meet the increasing traffic demand. Regarding the socio-economic impact of road privatization, a wide range of approaches and models...

  • Regulation of skeletal muscle protein degradation by u-calpain and development of a skeletal muscle-specific inducible expression system

    Creator:
    Xiao, Ying-Yi
    Abstract:
    The first goal of this study was to understand the role of u-calpain in skeletal muscle protein degradation in cultured muscle cells. Several strategies were developed to down-regulate endogenous u-calpain activity and m-calpain activity in rat myotubes. These included over-expression of antisense u-calpain (AnsL), dominant negative u-calpain (DN-u-CL), antisense 30K...

  • Formation and modification of enduracididine, a nonproteinogenic amino acid

    Creator:
    Tan, Ying
    Abstract:
    Molecular genetic and enzymological techniques have been employed to study antibiotic biosynthesis. In this thesis, we studied the formation and modification of the nonproteinogenic amino acid enduracididine (End), which exists in two important antibiotics, mannopeptimycins (MPPs) and enduracidin. Sequence analysis of the MPP gene cluster revealed that the product of...

  • Household Air Pollution and Adult Respiratory Health in Low- and Middle- Income Countries

    Creator:
    Wang, Ying
    Abstract:
    This dissertation examined the association between HAP and respiratory health, both using simple proxy metrics, such as cooking fuel types, and actual measurements, such as household and personal measures of PM2.5 and BC. We found that simple proxy metrics can predict a portion of HAP levels, and associations with respiratory...

  • bBlocks : a flexible object oriented microarchitecture simulation framework

    Creator:
    Hua, Ying
    Abstract:
    This research develops an object-oriented approach of modeling microprocessor architecture. A generic modeling library, bBlocks, is proposed as a framework for constructing microprocessor simulation. bBlocks is a collection of predefined abstract components (blocks) implemented in Java, the object-oriented programming language. Blocks are defined and used as the basic components in...

  • The effect of two levels of glucose ingestion on plasma pyridoxal 5'-phosphate concentration

    Creator:
    Huang, Ying-Hui
    Abstract:
    This study was designed to evaluate the effect of glucose on plasma pyridoxal 5'- phosphate (PLP) concentration. The objective was to determine whether there was a negative relationship between glucose ingestion and plasma PLP concentration and to evaluate the possible mechanism of decreased PLP after acute glucose ingestion. Seven healthy...

  • Effect of pharmaceuticals and natural products on multidrug resistance mediatedtransport in Caco-2 and MDCKII-MDR1 drug transport models

    Creator:
    Fan, Ying
    Abstract:
    This thesis details my investigation of some pharmaceuticals and natural products on the transport of drugs which are substrates of P-glycoprotein (P-gp), such as cyclosporin A (CSA) and digoxin by using Caco-2 and MDCKII-MDR1 drug transport models. Three objectives were performed to address this goal. The first objective was to...

  • Evaluation of Setback Crosswalk to Mitigate Vehicle-Pedestrian Conflicts at Intersections

    Creator:
    Chai, Eileen Pei Ying
    Abstract:
    It is considered best practice when designing pedestrian access at intersections to provide two curb ramps at each street corner. In Oregon, there are many locations where long ramp runs cause curb ramps to be set back a significant distance from the apex of the intersection corner to meet this...
