Spring 2013
In the newly fertilized embryo, meiotic and mitotic spindles form consecutively within the same egg cytoplasm. The order of events during this transition is controlled, in part, via the regulation of the microtubule cytoskeleton. Herein, I show that mel-43 is part of a small paralogous gene...

Meiosis in eukaryotes includes a developmentally programmed pre-meiotic G2 phase arrest before the onset of MI division mediated by inhibitory phosphorylation of Cdk1. There are two inhibitory kinases, Wee1 and Myt1. Myt1 mediated Cyclin B-Cdk1 regulation serves as a conserved mechanism for...

Mapping and characterization of mel-43(sb41), a gene required for early embryonic viability in C. elegans
DownloadSpring 2010
A genetic screen for dominant, temperature-sensitive, maternal-effect embryonic lethal mutations identified mel-43(sb41), a gene required for early embryonic viability (Mitenko et al., 1997). Linkage mapping placed mel-43 within a small region on chromosome IV. Genetic analyses suggested that...

DEAD Box 1 (DDX1) is a member of the DEAD box protein family of RNA helicases involved in all aspects of RNA metabolism. Although several DEAD box proteins have been well characterized, the biochemical activity of the majority of DEAD box proteins remains to be studied. DDX1 is mostly localized...

Early embryonic development is a dynamic period that requires precise and timely interaction between the developing embryo and the maternal environment. A series of studies were carried out in order to identify the vital components of this environment and to understand their temporal and spatial...

Understanding the role of diets enriched in long chain fatty acids on postpartum reproductive function and embryo development in dairy cows
DownloadSpring 2016
The objectives of this work were to investigate the influence of diets enriched in long chain fatty acids on feed intake, calf birth weight, maternal and neonatal fatty acid profiles, milk production, postpartum reproductive function, early embryonic development and its transcriptome profile in...
