This decommissioned ERA site remains active temporarily to support our final migration steps to https://ualberta.scholaris.ca, ERA's new home. All new collections and items, including Spring 2025 theses, are at that site. For assistance, please contact erahelp@ualberta.ca.
Theses and Dissertations
This collection contains theses and dissertations of graduate students of the University of Alberta. The collection contains a very large number of theses electronically available that were granted from 1947 to 2009, 90% of theses granted from 2009-2014, and 100% of theses granted from April 2014 to the present (as long as the theses are not under temporary embargo by agreement with the Faculty of Graduate and Postdoctoral Studies). IMPORTANT NOTE: To conduct a comprehensive search of all UofA theses granted and in University of Alberta Libraries collections, search the library catalogue at www.library.ualberta.ca - you may search by Author, Title, Keyword, or search by Department.
To retrieve all theses and dissertations associated with a specific department from the library catalogue, choose 'Advanced' and keyword search "university of alberta dept of english" OR "university of alberta department of english" (for example). Past graduates who wish to have their thesis or dissertation added to this collection can contact us at erahelp@ualberta.ca.

Elucidating the role of the Cpx envelope stress response in the colonization and virulence of Citrobacter rodentium
DownloadSpring 2022
The murine attaching and effacing (A/E) pathogen, Citrobacter rodentium, is used as an infection model in vivo for the A/E pathogens enterohemorrhagic and enteropathogenic Escherichia coli (EHEC and EPEC). All three A/E pathogens harbor the Locus of Enterocyte Effacement (LEE) which encodes a...

Regulation of enteropathogenic Escherichia coli envelope protein expression by the Cpx response and small RNAs
DownloadFall 2013
Gram-negative bacteria are characterized by their complex cell envelope, which consists of the inner membrane, outer membrane, and intervening periplasmic space. Envelope-localized proteins play a critical role in many interactions of a bacterium with its environment, including uptake of...

The Cpx stress response regulates turnover of respiratory chain proteins at the inner membrane of Escherichia coli
DownloadSpring 2022
The cell envelope of Gram-negative bacteria is a unique multilayered structure that protects them from the constantly changing and often times inhospitable environments, and significantly contributes to their virulence. Having a complex structure, it requires an extensive regulatory network to...
