The herpes simplex virus virion host shutoff protein is targeted to mRNA cleavage sites through interactions with components of the host translational apparatus
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2011-01-20)
of circularized RNA that normally experiences cap-dependent scanning and circularized RNA that initiates translation in a cap-independent manner. Results indicated that Vhs requires a free 5' end for specific cleavage of mRNA that undergoes cap-dependent scanning...
Design of Instrumentation and Methodologies for Determination of Free Neutron Characteristics
(University of Missouri -- Kansas City, 2017)
Measuring neutron source‐dependent free neutron properties over a large neutron energy range, with human‐portable instrumentation, continues to push the frontier of neutron detection instrumentation design and analysis ...
Automatic GUI Based Counting Software for Immunostaining Analysis Using Matlab GUIDE
(2016)
Typically, researchers need to the manually count the number of cells in many
histological sections. However, this manual counting method is labor intensive and time
consuming. Manual counting is also subject to bias, ...
The early imperial ceramics as evidence for life at Roman Sardis
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Historical testimonia tell us that in the year 17 CE, an earthquake struck in Western Asia Minor and destroyed the city of Sardis. Recent excavations in the Field 49, Field 55...
Advanced Design and Analysis of UWB U-slot Microstrip Patch Using Theory of Characteristic Modes
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2017)
Ultra wide band is rapidly advancing as a high data rate wireless communication

Reconstructing activity patterns in prehistoric Jomon people using long bone cross-sectional geometry
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
This thesis uses long bone diaphyseal morphology to test hypotheses regarding behavior and functional adaptation among Jomon period hunter-gatherers from the Yoshigo site in Japan. Cross-sectional properties of Jomon femora ...
Performance tests on asphalt mixtures at multiple temperatures and development of pavement temperature maps
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2019)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI--COLUMBIA AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Thermal cracking and rutting are deteriorations that significantly affect asphalt pavements in the United States (US). Thermal cracking is a prevalent problem...
Development and Testing of a Steerable Cruciform Parachute System
(University of Missouri--Kansas City, 2018)
This thesis focuses on the development of a parachute payload system which is
capable of precision aerial delivery yet only represents a modest cost increase over ballistic unguided systems. In order to develop such a ...
The Uncertain Authenticity of an "Etruscan" Bronze Statuette
(University of Missouri--Columbia. Museum of Art and Archaeology, 2014)
, these examinations show that there are some significant stylistic and compositional problems with this Missouri statuette that raise serious doubts about its authenticity. The article proposes that instead of being ancient, the statuette is a modern forgery made...
Effect of chip thickness, sub-critical bifurcations and process parameters in high-speed milling
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] The main focus of the current research is to experimentally and numerically investigate of subcritical bifurcations in milling accounting for actual motion of the tool...
Resource selection and space use of the critically endangered Tuamotu Kingfisher (Todiramphus gambieri)
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2010)
I investigated the ecological requirements of the critically endangered Tuamotu Kingfisher (Todiramphus gambieri), with the intent to provide management recommendations that could help prevent its extinction. The species ...
The Ebb and flow of policy, economics, and science: an analysis of policy drivers in the Missouri River Basin
(2013)
The Missouri River basin underwent a major transformation when the United States Congress approved the Flood Control Act of 1944 and the Bank Stabilization and Navigation Project of 1945. Generations removed from those national policy decisions...
