Cilia are microtubule-based structures that project from nearly every cell in the vertebrate body. While cilia in different contexts can have either sensory or motile functions, all cilia rely upon a core set of genes. When these genes are mutated either singly or in various combinations, a...

Investigation of transcriptional and translational regulation of the Neurospora crassa alternative oxidase
DownloadFall 2018
Mitochondria are organelles found in most eukaryotes and supply the cell with the majority of its energy needs in the form of ATP. Most of the proteins needed for mitochondrial function are nuclear encoded. Therefore, mitochondria communicate their functional status to the nucleus, resulting in...

Manipulation of Seed Carbon Flow from Cellulose to Lipid and Protein Biosynthesis in Arabidopsis to Accelerate the Characterization of Protein-Related Genes in Canola
DownloadFall 2023
Canola (Brassica napus L.) is the major oilseed crop in Canada. After oil extraction, the protein-rich seed meal (around 40% protein) serves as a nutritious feedstock for animals and the protein fraction has potential for human consumption. However, excess fiber in the seed meal (about 33%) can...

Owttrim, George W., Coleman, John R.
A recA-like gene isolated from the cyanobacterium Anabaena variabilis was cloned and partially characterized. When introduced into Escherichia coli recA mutants, the 7.5-kilobase-pair plasmid-borne DNA insert restored resistance to methyl methanesulfonate and UV irradiation, as well as...

O'Sullivan, N.P., Wong, G.K., Lawley, C.T., McKay, J.C., Groenen, M.A., Fulton, J.E., Crooijmans, R.P., Muir, W.M., Megens, H.J., Cheng, H.H., McLeod, S., Zhang, H.M., Zhang, Y., Albers, G.A.A., Delany, M.E., Settar, P., Okimoto, R., Vereijken, A., Wang, J., Jungerius-Rattink, A.
In 2004 the chicken genome sequence and more than 2.8 million single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) were reported. This information greatly enhanced the ability of poultry scientists to understand chicken biology, especially with respect to identification of quantitative trait loci (QTL) and...

Large corporations have a significant amount of working capital tied into the acquisition and storage of spare parts. In the industry, spare parts inventory policies and strategies are often developed in isolation from reliability centered maintenance practices – this results in significant...
