Redox and Light Derived Mechanisms of Environmental Perception are Utilized for Regulation of the Cyanobacterial RNA Helicase crhR
DownloadSpring 2020
Cyanobacteria occur worldwide in environments that contain water and sunlight. They are crucial, positive players in carbon, oxygen and nitrogen cycling and function as producers of biosynthetic products such as biofuels. To optimize these processes, understanding mechanisms by which...

Transcriptional regulation of lipid metabolism: A key determinant of pancreatic ß-cell function
Download2005
Fatehi-Hassanabad, Zahra, Chan, Catherine B.
Background Optimal pancreatic β-cell function is essential for the regulation of glucose homeostasis in both humans and animals and its impairment leads to the development of diabetes. Type 2 diabetes is a polygenic disease aggravated by environmental factors such as low physical activity or a...

Type-1 Brassica napus Diacylglycerol Acyltransferases: Enzyme Characterization and Molecular Tools for Increasing Storage Lipid Production in Yeast
DownloadFall 2015
Diacylglycerol acyltransferase (DGAT) catalyzes the final step in the acyl-CoA- dependent biosynthesis of triacylglycerol (TAG). The level of DGAT activity may have a substantial effect on the flow of carbon into TAG in many organisms. In plants, yeast, and animals, two families of...
