Advancing single molecule fluorescence microscopy through the study of dynamic macromolecules
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)We took a two pronged approach to our investigation of protein synthesis by the ribosome: 1) the generation of a novel fluorescence enhancing substrates 2) the development of a method for the generation of fluorescent ... -
Bacterial ribosome conformational dynamics during translation termination and rescue
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)Hydrolysis of polypeptide from the ribosome is a critical step that must occur prior to the ribosome recycling phase of translation. Inability of cells to do so can result in translation inhibition and eventually leading ... -
Development of novel site-specific imaging probes for prostate cancer detection
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)[ACCESS RESTRICTED TO THE UNIVERSITY OF MISSOURI AT REQUEST OF AUTHOR.] Molecular imaging is believed to play a pivotal role in decreasing cancer mortality and improving prognosis in the new era. It relies on molecular ... -
The role of the P2X7 nucleotide receptor in salivary gland inflammation
(University of Missouri--Columbia, 2017)Salivary gland inflammation is a hallmark of Sjogren's syndrome (SS), a common autoimmune disease characterized by lymphocytic infiltration and the consequent impairment of the salivary gland and loss of saliva secretion, ...
