Molecular mechanisms of enzyme dysfunction in human phosphoglucomutase-1 deficiency
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
Human phosphoglucomutase-1 (PGM1) belongs to the [alpha]-D-phosphohexomutase superfamily, an ancient lineage of enzymes critical for carbohydrate metabolism. PGM1 catalyzes the interconversion of glucose-1-phosphate and ...
Characterization of peptides and phage that bind galectin-3 selected from bacteriophage display libraries: a study of the role of galectin-3 in metastasis-associated cancer cell adhesion
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
Intravascular cancer cell adhesion plays a significant role in the metastatic process. Studies indicate that galectin-3, a member of the galectin family of soluble animal lectins, is involved in carbohydrate-mediated ...
Glomerular deposition of homotrimeric type I collagen in the COL1A2 deficient mouse
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Type I collagen is the most abundant structural protein in the body. Type I collagen generally exists as a heterotrimeric protein; however, a homotrimeric isotype of type I collagen has been identified. Our lab currently ...
