Fall 2017
Gram-negative bacteria are separated from the environment by a multilayered structure known as the envelope, which is comprised of the outer membrane, the inner membrane and the aqueous periplasmic space that lies between the two membranes. Biogenesis of the envelope is a complex process that...

Self-cycling fermentation (SCF) is an advanced, automated, semi-continuous fermentation strategy that is used to improve the volumetric productivity of bioproduction. Typically, a microbial culture is grown in a reactor and half the reactor contents are harvested once a limiting nutrient is...

Bacterial species in the order Enterobacterales populate diverse ecological niches including soil, water, nematodes, insects, plants, and vertebrates. Many Enterobacteriaceae temporarily inhabit the intestine of vertebrate hosts but also survive and thrive in extra-intestinal habitats to transit...

The Cpx and Rcs responses signal envelope stress through independent mechanisms but are coordinated through the RprA sRNA in the cytoplasm
DownloadFall 2018
Bacteria have several mechanisms which play a major role in adaptation to environmental stresses. One method involves the use of signal sensing pathways that activate transcription of specific genes encoding proteins to alleviate bacterial stress. Upon sensing an inducing cue, an inner...

The Cpx envelope stress response of Escherichia coli regulates and is regulated by the small RNA RprA
DownloadFall 2015
When bacteria sense changes in their environment, they adapt by altering the expression of their genes in such a way that accommodates the change. To do this, bacterial cells can modulate the activity of their genes at either the level of transcription, or at the post-transcriptional level....

Fall 2011
Complex II, or succinate dehydrogenase, is a vital component of aerobic life. Its function is critical for both the tricarboxylic acid cycle and the mitochondrial respiratory chain since it catalyzes the oxidation of succinate to fumarate, liberating two electrons that feed into the lipid-soluble...

The mating system, dispersal behavior and genetic structure of a collared pika (Ochotona collaris: Ochotonidae) population in the southwest Yukon, and a phylogeny of the genus Ochotona.
DownloadFall 2011
Pikas (Ochotona, Ochotonidae) are small, short-eared lagomorphs that inhabit steppes and mountains in northern and central Asia and alpine regions in western North America. I examined the dispersal patterns, genetic structure and mating system of a collared pika (O. collaris) population from the...

The role of cysteine and the Cpx envelope stress response in alleviating zinc induced stress in Escherichia coli
DownloadFall 2018
Circumscribing the interior of Gram negative bacteria are two sets of layers: an inner and outer membrane. The periplasm and murein occupy the space between these membranes and acts as a site for protein folding and degradation. The bacterial envelope, as a whole, plays an essential role in the...

Towards the microbial production of a switchable solvent by using the enzyme indoleamine N-methyltransferase
DownloadSpring 2016
Switchable solvents are a novel class of chemicals that are characterized with the ability to reversibly switch specific properties with the addition/removal of a trigger. For instance, a solution of low ionic strength can become one of high ionic strength, and vice versa. Switchable solvents...
