A Genetic Screen for Tribbles Suppressors Identifies the E3 Ubiquitin Ligase Neuralized as a Novel Target
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2017)
In this dissertation, I used the Drosophila wing as a model tissue for a genetic screen
to identify novel targets of Tribbles. Drosophila Tribbles is the founding member of a family
of pseudokinases conserved between ...
Hyper-Plastic Structural Evolution Of The PEX Domain - A Model Of Evolutionary Exaptation And Neofunctionalization At The Molecular Level
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)
With the advent of sophisticated genetic, biophysical and in silico technology an
enormous amount of information is being generated regarding the structural, biochemical and
physiological aspects of proteins. Tertiary ...
HIV-1 gp120 and Methamphetamine-mediated Induction of Proinflammatory Cytokines/chemokines and Oxidative Stress in Astrocytes: Implications in Neuroinflammation
(2014-04-02)
HIV associated neurocognitive disorder (HAND) remains a major concern for patients infected with HIV. The viral envelope protein, gp120 has been extensively studied and some of its neurotoxic effects are due to the increased ...
