A Pilot Study Comparing Total Physical Response Storytelling™ With the Grammar-Translation Teaching Strategy to Determine Their Effectiveness in Vocabulary Acquisition Among English as a Second Language Adult Learners
… of Total Physical Response Storytelling (TPRS™) compared to the Grammar-Translation approach for acquiring and retaining new vocabulary in an English as a Second Language (ESL) class. The subjects were adult Hispanic learners with limited literacy. An experimental design approach was used …

The effectiveness of Total Physical Response Storytelling for language learning with special education students
… of the Total Physical Response Storytelling (TPRS) language learning method in comparison with "traditional" language learning methods. The research focused on high school students (n= 44) in grades 9-12 with mild learning disabilities such as specific learning disorder, other health …

Understanding tetratricopeptide repeats of <i>O</i>-GlcNAc transferase
… effect of ID-associated mutations on OGT and its TPRs in particular, and suggests that analysis of the impact of these mutations on interactions between OGT and its substrates and/or interacting partners may prove to be a fruitful avenue of research. Furthermore, this work has established a useful …

An interdisciplinary study of the mechanical and dynamic properties of α-solenoid repeat proteins
… different to what has been previously reported. TPRs unfold and refold in quasi-equilibrium at constant force without energy loss. In contrast, PR65 unfolds in separate domains and refolds along an entirely different pathway. In conclusion, my doctoral studies explore the physical characteristics …

Construction and Biological Characterisation of Custom Engineered Protein Degradation Tools.
… E3-binding sequences: tetratricopeptide repeats (TPRs), RAD protein, and monobodies. The structures, stabilities and binding of the grafted scaffolds were investigated. Characterisation included circular dichroism spectroscopy to ensure correct folding and thermal and chemical denaturation assays. …

Strengths and Weaknesses of Hybrid TPR Technology for Obtaining Structural and Mechanistic Insights into TPR Proteins
… a novel “hybrid TPR” technology, in which some TPRs from a distant relative of APC3 are fused upstream of the C-terminal domain from human APC3. This approach enabled determination of a 3Å resolution structure encompassing the sequence of the APC3 C-terminal domain. Interestingly, only a …

Enhancing my Teaching of Irish-Language Vocabulary through the use of Stories and Storytelling
… Proficiency Through Reading and Storytelling (TPRS) theory. It used a well-known Irish storybook to teach specific vocabulary. There was a focus on repetition, questioning and creating a home-school link with parental involvement. The findings revealed an increase in engagement and vocabulary …
