Signals affecting the urease status of plant-associated bacteria, Methylobacterium spp
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Pink-Pigmented Facultative Methylotrophic bacteria (PPFMs, Methylobacterium spp.) have been found to be the most abundant microorganisms among phylloplane microflora, and have been recovered from all plants examined. I ...
A custom oligonucleotide microarray analysis as a tool for dissecting soybean-bradyrhizobium japonicum nodule senescence
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
compounds from the plant, and the plant receives reduced nitrogen, the most limiting nutrient in agriculture for the synthesis of proteins, amino acids, nucleotides and vitamins. Most investigations on this symbiosis concern the formation of nodules whereas...
Molecular and cell biological studies of mammalian zinc transporters
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Zinc is an essential trace element in all organisms. The importance of the hZIP4 human zinc transporter is highlighted by its causative role in a ...
The role of P2Y₂ nucleotide receptors in vascular inflammation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Extracellular nucleotides act on P2 receptors to regulate vascular tone. Large amounts of extracellular nucleotides are released at the sites of tissue injury and may play an important role in the vascular inflammation. ...
Kinase-interacting FHA domain of kinase associated protein phosphatase : phosphopeptide interactions and NMR-detected dynamics
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
FHA domains are phosphoThr recognition modules found in diverse signaling proteins. Kinase-associated protein phosphatase (KAPP) from Arabidopsis employs its FHA domain in its negative regulation of some receptor-like ...
Structural and functional studies of proline catabolic enzymes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Catabolism is the oxidation of organic nutrients into simple end molecules to extract energy. For proline, the catabolic pathway involves two enzymes, Lproline dehydrogenase (PRODH, EC 1.5.99.8) and L-[delta]¹-pyrroline- ...
Regulation of Nrf2 by a keap1-dependent E3 ubiquitin ligase
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Oxidative damage to biological macromolecules has been implicated in diverse pathophysiological processes, including cancer, neurodegeneration, aging and cardiovascular disease. The Nrf2 transcription factor regulates ...
