Title: Exploring the Immune System using Hybrid Cube Nanoparticles
Author: McMillan, Jessica
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Biochemistry, Nanotechnology, Biology
Description: Nano-sized cubes made from nucleic acid material (NANPs) are ideal scaffolds for therapeutic nucleic acids (TNAs). Both utilize sequence specificity through base-pairing, providing controlled strand interaction, stability, and targeted targeting d...

Title: Abrogating the oncogenic signaling associated with tumor MUC1 in Pancreatic Ductal Adenocarcinoma
Author: Bose, Mukulika
Date Created: 2022
Subjects--Topical: Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Oncology
Description: Pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (PDA) is one of the most lethal human cancers. The incidence rate of PDA nearly matches its mortality rate and the best treatment till date is surgical resection for which only 25\% are eligible. Tumor recurrence a...

Title: CO-CHAPERONE REGULATION OF THE RIBONUCLOETIDE REDUCTASE COMPLEX
Author: Knighton, Laura
Date Created: 2020
Subjects--Topical: Biology, Biochemistry
Description: The molecular chaperone Hsp70 folds a significant proportion of the proteome and is responsible for the activity and stability of many disease-related proteins, including those in cancer. Substantial effort has been devoted to developing a range o...

Title: Understanding Chaperone interactions in disease
Author: Nitika
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Cytology
Description: The correct folding of proteins after synthesis and stress-promoted denaturation is critical for cell viability in all organisms. The Hsp70 molecular chaperone is a key player in proteostasis, deciding which proteins are foldable and which are too...

Title: Role of Intramolecular Electrostatic Interactions on the Kinetics of Human Cardiac Myosin β-Isoform
Author: Gargey, Akhil
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Molecular biology, Biochemistry, Biophysics
Description: Human cardiac myosin has two isoforms, α and β, sharing significant sequence similarity, but different in kinetics. Small differences in the sequence are responsible for distinct local inter-residue interactions within α and β isoforms, leading to...

Title: Regulation of Myosin IIIa Motor/Kinase Activity
Author: Moore, Judy
Date Created: 2009
Subjects--Topical: Biochemistry, Neurosciences, Cytology
Description: Myosin IIIa, a motor protein that localizes to actin-rich regions of photoreceptors and to stereocilia of inner ear hair cells, is associated with the hearing process in vertebrates and with phototransduction for invertebrates. It contains a large...

Title: VPS501, A NOVEL SNX-BAR PROTEIN INVOLVED IN AUTOPHAGY
Author: goyal, Shreya
Date Created: 2021
Subjects--Topical: Biochemistry, Cytology, Molecular biology
Description: ABSTRACTCareful control of intracellular signaling pathways plays an important role in a cell’s ability to maintain stable internal conditions in the face of an ever-changing extracellular environment. This is particularly true as it relates to th...

Title: Investigating the Genetic Basis and Selection of Diverse Plant Specialized Metabolites in Wild Soybean, Glycine soja.
Author: Yasmin, Farida
Date Created: 2023
Subjects--Topical: Botany, Genetics, Biochemistry
Description: Plant-specialized metabolites, such as glyceollins and soyasaponins, play vital roles in adapting to dynamic environments and promoting human health. Glyceollins, induced phytoalexins derived from the isoflavonoid branch of the phenylpropanoid pat...
