New Biological Pathways
… I propose and develop three new biological pathways which can perform three different categories of work i) information retrieval ii) information storage and iii) information editing. For information retrieval, I propose repurposing viral capsid proteins to perform non-destructive …

Uncovering hidden pathways
… of an educator guide called "Uncovering Hidden Pathways" a term I use to describe the anti-racist approach to encouraging non-dominant youth to leverage the creativity and knowledge they already possess to feel more confident in participating in STEM activities while helping them make …

Pathways To Civil War
<p>This dissertation is about conflict escalation to civil war, and examines why some political confrontations escalate and why principal conflict actors continue fighting rather than reaching a number of political arrangements at various points of the course of conflict. Unlike previous studies, …

Biochemical Pathways in Apoptosis
Caspases are a family of proteases that once activated execute apoptosis, a cellular suicide pathway. Activated caspases have a unique property to cleave and activate themselves. Once the first caspase is activated, it generates a chain reaction resulting in robust caspase activity and rapid death. …

Pathways: for Chamber Orchestra
Pathways is scored for two flutes (second doubling piccolo), two oboes, two clarinets in Bflat, two bassoons, two horns in F, two trumpets in C, percussion (two players), harp, piano/celesta, and strings. It presents a progression of primary musical ideas and then explores various "pathways" by …

Electrogenetic pathways in cyanobacteria
… stimuli. Nevertheless, the genetic pathways (hereafter referred to as “electrogenetic”) responsible for cyanobacteria’s redox interactions with their environment are mostly unknown. This limits our understanding of the evolutionary history, biochemical mechanisms and physiological …

Pathways to Sustainable Housing
The world is observing unprecedented, devastating, yet growing effects of climate change. GDP has been slow for decades; Covid-19 has disturbed the economy; energy prices are rising; unemployment remains high; consumer debt and budget deficit are climbing; wealth inequality is at an all-time high. …

Pathways to dropping out
This study investigated the perceptions of a select group of black males about their school experiences. The purpose of the study was to compare the perceptions of dropouts with the perceptions of in-school participants to predict the likelihood of the in-school participants becoming dropouts. The …

Defining Delivery Pathways of Nanoparticles
The goal of nanomedicine is to use nanoparticles to carry drugs to specific target site in the body. For cancer nanomedicine, a recent meta-analysis showed that only 0.7% of the injected nanoparticles reach the tumour. To address this delivery inefficiency, it is important to examine each …

Understanding Host Antiviral Signaling Pathways
… nucleic acids and trigger signaling pathways which lead to the activation of transcription factors like nuclear factor-kappa B (NF-kappa B), interferon regulatory factor 3 (IRF3) and interferon regulatory factor 7 (IRF7). These transcription factors regulate the synthesis of …

Developmental Pathways To Conduct Problems
This study tests the predictions made by several causal theories proposing different etiologies for childhood-onset and adolescent-onset conduct problems. It investigates a variety of causal factors proven to be important for the development of antisocial behaviors, specifically …

Pathways to family preservation services
The study examines the socio-demographics of families participating in Las Vegas, Nevada's Intensive Family Preservation Program, the crisis precipitators that these families experience, and the services that were directed at the identified crisis precipitators. A qualitative research design was …

Phosphorus Pathways In Deep Time
… to identify where on the early Earth prebiotic pathways may have been most favoured. A truly interdisciplinary approach to interference chemistry would incorporate constraints on early Earth environments from the study of astrophysics, meteorites, and preserved crustal rocks.

Metabolic pathways of Campylobacter fetus
… But the non-oxidative portions of the former pathways were present in 482 and is believed to compose the major pathway of pentose-5-phosphate metabolism in this organism. There were activities of lactate dehydrogenase, reduced NAD and NADP dehydrogenases, and phosphotransacetylase found in …

Ryanodine receptors in calcium signaling pathways
<p>Calcium (Ca<sup>2+</sup>) plays an important role as a second messenger, transmitting the message of arrival of stimuli such as hormones and neurotransmitters to the intracellular system that carries out the cellular response to the stimulus. The universality of Ca<sup>2+</sup> as an …

Hypoxia regulated pathways in urological malignancies
Introduction: Kidney Cancer accounts for approximately 2% of all new cancer diagnoses in<br/>the UK each year. Patient survival has improved over the past few decades; however the<br/>mechanisms of this are yet to be fully elucidated. Hypoxia inducible factor isoforms, HIF-1 and<br/>HIF-2, are …
