Molecular cloning and characterization of regulatory enzymes in threonine biosynthetic pathway from soybean
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
Soybeans (Glycine max [L.] Merr.) are a good source of protein and oil. Despite being a very good source of protein, soybeans nutritional value is limited by low proportion of sulfur amino acids methionine and cysteine ...
Black alumni of the University of Missouri-Columbia : financial support as the mirror of attitudes
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2001)
This study examined the attitudes toward the University of Missouri-Columbia of a sample of its Black alumni and whether their attitudes were reflected in their donor status. The Black Alumni Survey was used to assess the perceptions of alumni...
Statistical analysis of multivariate interval-censored failure time data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2007)
A voluminous literature on right-censored failure time data has been developed in the past 30 years. Due to advances in biomedical research, interval censoring has become increasingly common in medical follow-up studies. ...

Photoemission spectroscopy and first-principles studies of two-dimensional Dirac and Weyl materials
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2022)
Two-dimensional (2D) materials have attracted tremendous research interest since the breakthrough of graphene. As the nature of the low dimension, 2D materials are thin, flexible, and easy for fabrication. More interestingly, ...
Decoupling inequalities for the tail probabilities of multivariate u-statistics
(2011)
In this paper we present a decoupling inequality that shows that multivariate U-statistics can be studied as sums of (conditionally) independent random variables. This result has important implications in several areas of ...
Analysis and modeling of direct selective laser sintering of two-component metal powders
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Direct Selective Laser Sintering (SLS) is an emerging technology of Solid Freeform Fabrication (SFF) that 3-D parts are built from the metal-based powder bed with CAD data. A one...
Examination of metabolic and regulatory networks of desulfovibrio species
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2004)
The sulfate-reducing bacteria are a morphologically diverse group of organisms characterized by the ability to couple the enzymatic reduction of sulfate to energy production and growth. This metabolic activity has profound ...
Who drives defense policy : elites or public interest?
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2011)
With a massive budget deficit and an ever-increasing national debt, while Congress and the President almost shut down the federal government over funding for Planned Parenthood in 2011, defense spending seems to be nearly ...
The effects of axotomy on the biophysical properties of reticulospinal neurons in larval lamprey
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2006)
Following severe spinal cord injury (SCI), in adult higher vertebrates there is little or no axonal regeneration, and animals remain paralyzed below the lesion. In contrast, lower vertebrates such as the lamprey, following ...
The role of middle leaders in fostering organizational learning in a state cooperative extension service
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2005)
This qualitative study explored the nature of organizational learning and the role of regional directors (RDs) and program directors (PDs) as mid-level leaders in fostering organizational learning in one cooperative extension organization. In...
Statistical analysis of clustered or multivariate interval-censored failure time data
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2018)
[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT AUTHOR'S REQUEST.] Interval-censored failure time data are a type of the failure time data that often occur in clinical trials with periodic follow-ups among others. In this case, the failure time...
Comparison of measured resistance for drilled shafts socketed in weak rock in Oklahoma to previously established SPT and TCP-based predictive design relations
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2021)
targeting the Fairmont Shale formations. Four more drilled shafts with 4-foot diameters and 45-foot lengths were constructed in Edmond, Oklahoma targeting the Garber Sandstone formation. All test shafts were loaded with a bi-directional load cell...
FAPRI 2004 U.S. Baseline Briefing Book
(Food and Agricultural Policy Research Institute (FAPRI) at the University of Missouri-Columbia, 2004-03)

Effect of a single AGE modification on the structure and chaperone activity of human alphaB-Crystallin
(American Chemical Society, 2007)
During aging, human lens proteins undergo several post-translational modifications, one of which is glycation. This process leads to the formation of advanced glycation end products (AGEs) which accumulate with time possibly ...
