Genetic and Biochemical Characterization of the Mechanisms Concerning the TraR/AAI/TraM Mediated Quorum Sensing That Regulates Ti Plasmid Conjugation
… that binding of TraR to this site depends on AAI, and that the N-terminal half of the protein contains one or more domains that are required for activation. I identified a region of TraR spanning residues 39 to 140 important for binding the signal. I demonstrated that the antiactivator TraM …

Exploring a Psycholinguistic Method of Assessing Attachment Orientation in Couple Therapy
… conducted with the Adult Attachment Interview (AAI) has provided a wealth of information regarding how adults behave in and respond to relationships. Unfortunately, despite the AAI\'s usefulness in assessing attachment orientation, administering the AAI requires intensive training, cost, and …

Work experience, coherence, and well - being: an examination of coherence and later work measures
… study. The Adult Attachment Interview (AAI), questionnaires focused on participants’ work, and linguistic analysis of an interview about work were all used to explore links between measures of adult attachment, narrative coherence, and later adult functioning. In the first study, links …

Divergence in Siblings' Adult Attachment Security: Potential Contributors and Consequences
… to divergence. The Adult Attachment Interview (AAI) was administered to young adult siblings to assess security as well as inferred childhood experiences with parents. Parental behaviors were also assessed via questionnaires. Participants' AAI security was unrelated within sibling pair, and …

Peptide immunotherapy in models of allergic airways disease
… mouse models of allergic airways inflammation (AAI). Trackable, T cell receptor transgenic T cells recognizing the immunodominant 323-339 peptide of OVA (pOVA) allow mechanistic investigation of PIT in response to pOVA. This thesis investigated the hypothesis that strong, systemic T cell …

Beliefs About Animal Assisted Interventions Among Medical Social Workers
<p>Animal‑Assisted Intervention (AAI) is used to significantly reduce pain, lower blood pressure, decrease anxiety, and help ease depression in people with a range of health problems; however, it is not readily used in the hospital setting. Research involving the Human‑Animal Bond (HAB) is well …

The role of reflective functioning in predicting parenting and coparenting quality
… on the prebirth Adult Attachment Interviews (AAI; George, Kaplan, & Main, 1985). Parenting and coparenting quality were assessed 13 months after the birth of the target child. Correlational and factor analyses indicated considerable overlap between RF and traditional AAI coding. Exploratory …

Molecular, Genetic and Physiological Studies on the Regulation of Conjugal Transfer of the Ti Plasmid pTiC58 by Agrobacterium Tumefaciens
… that quorum-sensing results from TraR and AAI activating transfer gene expression only at high cell densities. The bacteria measure their density by sensing the concentration of AAI in the growth medium.

Food allergy management in Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) Services: Are services aware of training guidelines for food allergy management?
… ECEC services stored adrenaline autoinjectors (AAI) in a locked location (not recommended). Approximately half (51.4%) of ECEC services reported having an AAI training device. NSW and Queensland had a significantly lower proportion of services with AAI training devices than Victoria (p-value < …

A QUANTITATIVE STUDY OF ANIMAL-ASSISTED INTERVENTIONS WITH YOUTH WHO HAVE EXPERIENCED MALTREATMENT
… negative effects. Animal Assisted Intervention (AAI) is a popular and growing field. Anecdotal evidence abounds on the efficacy of AAI, however, there is a lack of quantitative and qualitative research and evidence-backed models of treatment particularly with youth. This study sought to increase …

Molecular genetic characterization of essential conjugal transfer determinants on the nopaline-type Ti plasmid from Agrobacterium tumefaciens strain C58
… the N-acyl homoserine lactone molecule, AAI, control of gene activation in tra requires two other determinants. One regulatory determinant is the cis-acting promoter sequence, called the tra box, found in the intergenic region. This DNA sequence is required for expression of the divergent …

The Human-Animal Bond and Attachment in Animal-Assisted Interventions in Counseling
… animal-assisted interventions in counseling (AAI-C). These bonding processes may resemble that of an attachment bond in which the client desires to maintain closeness to the practitioner and therapy animal as a result of feeling safe and secure. Researchers studying attachment in the …

Camp Geronimo: Evaluating the Influence of an Animal Assisted Intervention Based Summer Camp on Social Participation in Children with Intellectual and Developmental Disabilities
… regarding animal assisted intervention (AAI) has found that it can be an effective intervention towards promoting positive social participation in children with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD). A quality improvement project was implemented at The Barn at Spring Brook …

The development and initial validation of the Glassboro Inventory for Twelve-Step (GIFTS)
… against the Alcoholics Anonymous Involvement (AAI; Tonigan, Connors, & Miller, 1996) as well as several positive psychology measures. Results indicated that the GIFTS was positively correlated with the AAI and all four positive psychology measures. The GIFTS also appears to be particularly …

Molecular Genetic Characterization of the Mating Pair Formation and Vegetative Replication Regions on the Agrobacterium Tumefaciens Ti Plasmid pTiC58
… for the synthesis of Agrobacterium autoinducer (AAI) which is the co-inducer of the transcriptional activator, TraR. The next 11 ORFs showed similarities with the trb genes of RP4, which encode mating pair formation (Mpf) functions essential for conjugation, as well as with other genes from the …

Investigating the Biomechanical and Electrophysiological Responses of Astrocytes to Mechanical Trauma
… metric, the Asynchronous Activity Index (AAI), was developed using a CellProfiler-based pipeline. The AAI quantifies fluctuations in total fluorescence over time to assess population-wide calcium activity, providing an alternative when reliable cell-specific segmentation was not feasible. …

Analysis of NEIL3 expression : a possible resistance factor to cancer chemotherapy in paediatric cancer cells
NEIL3 is the largest of three homologs of the bacterial Nei protein in mammalian cells. It has been shown to have DNA glycosylase activity in vitro, excising oxidised purine and pyrimidine bases from both single- and double-stranded DNA. Additionally, NEIL3 has recently been shown to release …
