Studies of antibiotic resistant mutants of Bacteroides Fragilis obtained by Cs-137 ionizing radiation
(1986-05)The genus Bacteroides is an obligate anaerobic bacillus normally found in the upper respiratory tract, the colon, and the genitourinary system. The project reported here was undertaken because of the high frequency of ... -
Assessment of the role of testosterone in the rat gonads: Morphometrical and cytochemical analysis
(1996-12)Rat testes are composed of somatic cells, primarily Sertoli (SC), myoid (MC) and Leydig cells (LC), and germinal epithelium which gives rise to spermatozoa. Sertoli, myoid, and Leydig cells have androgen receptors, of which ... -
Cloning and DNA sequence analysis of a plasmid from Helicobacter pylori
(1994-08)Helicobacter pylori is a pathogenic bacterium that resides in the gastric epithelium of some individuals and is widely regarded as a cause of type B gastritis and duodenal ulcer. Many bacterial species contain plasmid DNA ... -
Sequencing and characterization of Helicobacter pylori plasmid, pAL202
(2004-05)Helicobacter pylori, a Gram-negative, spiral-shaped bacterium, is associated with gastric diseases in humans. We characterize H. pylori plasmids to determine their biological role in this microorganism and to test the ... -
The functional characterization of a novel protein, Liat1.
(2022-12-01)The Ligand of Ate1 (Liat1) was discovered in our lab by its interaction with Arginyl tRNA-protein transferase-1 (Ate1), a component of the N-degron pathway of protein degradation. However, its functional significance remains ... -
Identifying and characterizing regulators of a bone morphogenetic protein cell signaling pathway in Caenorhabditis elegans
(2022-12-01)Cell-to-cell communication pathways ensure proper development of organisms. One group of signaling pathways that animals use is the bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) family. BMPs play significant roles in embryogenesis, ...
