1. X-ray crystallographic analyses of the gene V protein from Ff bacteriophage, a single-stranded DNA-binding protein, and its Y41 mutants 2. X-ray crystallographic analyses of several anticancer drugs and their interactions with DNA
… as drug-DNA interactions play important roles in genetic processes. A fundamental understanding of these processes requires a detailed structural knowledge of DNAs, proteins, drugs, as well as their complexes with each other. Gene V protein (GVP) encoded by the filamentous bacteriophage Ff (M13, …

Haplotype-Based Approaches For The Study Of Human Evolution
… dissertation details two projects related to the genetic processes of recent evolution in human populations. Tying these two projects together is a reliance on haplotype-based methods, which leverage patterns of linkage across genetic variants, to better understand the evolutionary forces at play …

Partners in space: Discordant population structure between legume hosts and Rhizobium symbionts in their native range
… theory suggests that we must study how genetic variation in both partners is structured in space. This is because, in coevolution, the spatial distribution of genetic variation in one species can both determine its ability to locally adapt to a partner species and also serve as an agent …

Genetic structure and inversions in the Lake Malawi cichlid radiation
… central to studying the underlying evolutionary processes of adaptation and speciation. The modern synthesis unified evolutionary biology and genetics, fundamentally reorienting life sciences. Recent advances in DNA sequencing have enabled evolutionary research to consider entire genomes, an …

Gene expression in healing tendon
… While common, the underlying molecular and genetic processes of tendon damage and repair remain poorly understood. The work described herein used genome-wide expression analyses to investigate tendon injury and healing from three perspectives. The first identified novel gene expression in …

Effects of habitat degradation on the evolutionary dynamics of populations in a rainforest cycad (Gymnospermae)
… persistence, including effects on ecological and genetic processes beyond decreased demographic viability and the loss of genetic variation. Particularly interesting is the potential for evolutionary changes and adaptation to degraded habitats, that can affect population viability even in the …

Statistics for Learning Genetics
… statistics/mathematics as it applies to genetics. The data are based on analyses of current representative genetics texts, practicing genetics professors' perspectives, and more directly, students' perceptions of, and performance in, doing statistically-based genetics problems. This issue …

LIQUID PLASTICS AS A NEW ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM? AN INTEGRATED RISK ASSESSMENT OF POLYVINYL ALCOHOL, POLYETHYLENE GLYCOL, POLYVINYL PYRROLIDONE AND POLYACRYLIC ACID
… embryos, followed by PEG and PAA, affecting genetic processes, signalling pathways, and eye development. In D. magna, PEG exhibited acute toxicity at 0.5 mg/L, while PVA notably impacted the proteome, altering proteins involved in stress responses, reproduction, and energy allocation. …

Depositional environments and diagenesis of the Mississippian Bottineau interval (Lodgepole) in North Dakota
… water Tilston interval sediments.</p> <p>Two diagenetic provinces, basin and shelf, with different dia genetic histories, were identified in Bottineau interval rocks. Dia genetic processes were post- or pre-lithification events. Prelithification processes included biologic acthity, compaction, …

Activity of Analogs of Anticancer Drugs on the Serine Protease Enzymes Subtilisin and Chymotrypsin
<p>The anticancer activity of several platinum compounds is due to the formation of complexes with DNA. We hypothesize that the size and shape of the platinum compounds would impact interaction with proteins, and these interactions may be partly responsible for the anticancer activity. Chymotrypsin …

Ends, Norms, and Representations: Why ask "Why?" in Biology?
… invoke representations to explain end-directed processes. I then put Mayr’s argument to work answering three kinds of objection to the idea that genes are representational: 1) Genetic representations are causally or explanatorily inert, 2) Genetic processes are too complex and context sensitive …

Novel Inducers of Gliotoxin Production In Aspergillus Fumigatus
… factors, environmental factors and developmental processes. Gliotoxin, which is produced by a variety of <em>Aspergillus</em> species, <em>Trichoderma</em> species, and <em>Penicillium</em> species, exhibits immunosuppressive properties and has therefore been the subject of research for many …

Genetic Control of Eye Development, a Case Study Focused on the Murine Mutation Belly Spot and Tail (BST)
… a loss of positional cues for subsequent morphogenetic events, such as those dependent upon Pax2 expression. In contrast, the level of Hes1 mRNA in the Bst/+ mutant appears normal. In the Bst/+ Hes1 +/- compound mutant offspring, there are fewer instances of ocular defects compared to those of …

Genetic alterations defining human primary melanoma and mechanisms of immune evasion
… found in melanomas reflect the biological processes that govern tumour development. They also help shape how tumours evolve and escape immune regulation. Studying these changes can therefore help to refine our understanding of melanoma progression with the added potential to offer new …
