Identifying protein-protein interactions of a cell cycle regulator
(2001)
The role of anachronism (ana) protein in stem cell division of Drosophila melanogaster was examined. Synthesis of identifiable ana protein was necessary. The identifying method exploited was that of antibody tagging using ...
Supplemental feeding of lactating does increased body condition and circulating leptin but fails to improve reproductive efficiency
(2001)
Thirty six gestating Fallow does (Dama dama; BW=51.3kg) were allotted into groups: 1) Control (C; No Supplement; n=12), 2) Supplement (S; 4:1, corn:soybean meal; n=12), or 3) Rice Bran (R; 3:1:1, corn:soybean meal:20% fat ...
Aggression, Self-Esteem, and Perceived Threat

Based on a study by Bushman and Baumeister (1998), we hypothesized that high global self-esteem and high collective self-esteem should be predictive of greater aggressive. We also hypothesized that participants with high ...
Uniting software tools for the archival, management and analysis of linguistic data: lessons from developing the Language Data Repository
(Texas A&M University, 2001)
The complex tasks involved in both the production and use of linguistic data tend to be highly repetitive and tedious. These are the tasks at which computers excel, and at which humans perform very poorly. In this thesis ...
Thermodynamic stability of recoding RNA pseudoknots and ribosomal frameshifting
(2001)
Programmed ribosomal frameshifting is a method of regulation of protein expression in which a change in reading frame during translation brings about the formation of an alternative gene product. This process is an important ...
A measure of experiences with violence and post-traumatic stress disorder

(Texas A&M University, 2001)
To determine the genetic and specific affinity of deer mice (Peromyscus) inhabiting Triangle Island, British Colombia, Canada, a 1,439 base-pair (bp) fragment of the mitochondrial genome (containing the ND3, ND4L, and a ...
Literacy, Orality and the Digital Revolution: History and Prospects
(2001)
For years, communications scholars have classified communication into two types, oral and literate. Oral communication is, of course, basic to humans. We are bom with the ability to speak and need no formal training in ...
Predicting current compressive strength of concrete based on non-destructive testing by way of sound
(2001)
There are many ways to test the compressive strength of concrete to include both destructive and non-destructive methods. There are many pros and cons associated with the various methods of testing to include cost, size, ...
Women's reactions to dominant and Agreeable men: how are initial judgements of attraction affected by peer discussion
(2001)
This study examined the role of social influence in females' judgments of dominant and Agreeable males' dating desirability. Three hundred and sixty participants viewed one of four videotape segments that featured an ...
