Cell model of DJ-1-associated Parkinson’s Disease
… in PARK7, a gene which codes for the protein DJ-1. While there are many proposed roles of DJ-1 across numerous systems, the function of DJ-1 in relation to the development and progression of PD remains largely unclear. A first step towards determining this function is the creation of …

Mixing the library: information interaction and the DJ
… This is done by investigating the Disc Jockey (DJ) who works with electronic media files. DJs have worked with large digital collections since the birth of file sharing in the 1990s. Their activities necessitate a library system that supports retrieval, creative play, and public presentation of …

Structure-function studies of the Parkinsonism-linked protein DJ-1
DJ-1 is a multifunctional protein linked to familial Parkinson’s disease. DJ-1 has been suggested to exert its cytoprotective function, in part, by acting as a copper carrier that can sequester the reactive metal and/or provide the copper cofactor for the activation of the Cu-Zn superoxide …

DJ-1 AND ATP13A2: TWO PROTEINS INVOLVED IN PARKINSON’S DISEASE
… ATP13A2, a lysosomal ATPase; and PARK7, encoding DJ-1, a protein with proposed antioxidant and chaperone activities. Understanding the biochemical mechanisms underlying the neuroprotective functions of DJ-1 and mechanistic details accounting for functional overlap between ATP13A2 and DJ-1 can …

Behavioral, Neurochemical, and Histological Characterization of Mice Deficient for Parkin, DJ-1, and Antioxidant Proteins
… gene. Loss-of-function mutations in parkin and DJ-1 were the first to be linked to recessively inherited parkinsonism. Surprisingly, mice bearing similar loss-of-function mutations in parkin and DJ-1 do not show age-dependent loss of nigral dopaminergic neurons or depletion of dopamine in the …

Last night a DJ queered my life : disrupting the mythologies of a popular media practice
DJing is an important cultural practice that emerged in the United States in the 1970s. The development of its craft, techniques, and technologies over the past five decades has made DJing into a formidable performed cultural practice and art. The metaphors for a disc jockey, or DJ, are many: beat …

Faulting and natural fracturing across the DJ Basin: impacts on production from Hereford field, northern Colorado
… and natural fracturing in the Denver-Julesburg (DJ) Basin have been studied extensively -- and with good reason. The natural fractures in the Niobrara formation, specifically in the Niobrara B Chalk, have been the driving mechanism behind the production from this low-porosity, low-permeability …

DJ-1, a Parkinson’s Disease-associated Gene, Prevent Excessive Glial Inflammatory Responses through Interaction with SHP-1
… study, I demonstrate a novel mechanism by which DJ-1 (PARK7), an early onset autosomal recessive PD gene, negatively regulates inflammatory responses of astrocytes and microglia by facilitating the interaction between STAT1 and its phosphatase, SHP-1 (Src-homology 2-domain containing protein …

Evaluation of diagnostic fracture injection test (DFIT) and rate transient analysis (RTA) in Hereford field, northern DJ Basin
Since the inception of unconventional reservoir development in the United States, hydraulic fracturing and acidizing have become the primary techniques for stimulating these ultra-low permeability reservoirs. Furthermore, unlike conventional reservoirs, unconventional reservoirs require a much …

Surprising Behavioral and Neurochemical Enhancements in Mice with Combined Mutations Linked to Parkinson's Disease
… humans lacking expression of either Parkin or DJ-1 develop PD. However, one limitation to studying PD is a lack of rodent models that recapitulate both the dopaminergic and motor symptoms as well as the age-dependent development of this disease. In fact, mice deficient for either one or both …
