The interaction of phenelzine with human monoamine oxidase B: characterization and consequences
DownloadSpring 2022
Phenelzine (PLZ) is a monoamine oxidase (MAO) inhibitor developed in the 1960s which has been used clinically for psychiatric conditions such as depression and anxiety disorders. However, despite over 60 years of research, the mechanism by which PLZ exerts its effects on MAO has yet to be...

The roles of vestigial and scalloped in the embryonic muscle development of Drosophila melanogaster
DownloadFall 2010
Vertebrate development requires the activity of multiple members of the myocyte enhancer factor 2 (mef2) gene family for muscle cell specification and subsequent differentiation. Additionally, it is thought that several muscle-specific functions of MEF2 family proteins require binding additional...

The Study of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia Genes Using Drosophila Homologues: Behavioural Insights
DownloadFall 2014
Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia (HSP) denotes a heterogeneous group of heritable neurodegenerative disorders predominantly characterized by progressive weakness and spasticity of the legs. Mutations in the gene SPAST are by far the most common, while mutations in the gene ATL1 are the second most...

Transport and reaction processes in bioremediation of organic contaminants. 1. Review of bacterial degradation and transport
Download2003-01-01
Bressler, David C., Gray, Murray R.
Bioremediation of contaminants in soil and water involves a complex interplay between transport processes and biological reactions. Equilibrium physical factors such as aqueous solubility, soil adsorption, and phase partitioning indicate the transport processes that can limit bioremediation,...

Fall 2014
Fragile X Syndrome (FXS) is the most common genetic cause of Intellectual Disability, affecting 1 in 4000 boys and 1 in 6000 girls. Work in our lab using Drosophila melanogaster and since replicated in the mouse model has shown that excess protein synthesis is a major mechanism connecting the...
