(Texas A&M University, 2005-02-17)There are three main categories of algorithms for identifying small transcription regulatory sequences in the promoters of genes, phylogenetic comparison, expectation maximization and combinatorial. For convenience, the ...
-
(2009-05-15)How does DNA make the abundant and diverged life world? To address this question, a DNA “Jigsaw Puzzle” structure model was proposed and first tested by comprehensively analyzing the genome of the model dicot plant, ...
-
(2012-04-26)Protein kinases are enzymes which phosphorylate other proteins and often play critical regulatory roles in cellular metabolism. We studied the effects of deletion of the TDA1 gene in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. TDA1 encodes ...

(2018-04-18)Beef cattle production in the United States is faced with restricted access to previously used feed-grade antibiotics, deemed medically important, under the 2017 Veterinary Feed Directive. Suitable alternatives should be ...

(2021-04-06)Adaptive laboratory evolution (ALE) is a powerful tool used to increase strain fitness in the presence of environmental stressors. Apart from growth improvement, ALE can also be used for improving productivity if production ...
-
(2015-08-05)The mitochondrial respiratory chain (MRC) consists of four multi-protein complexes in the inner membrane of mitochondria and is the main site of cellular respiration. MRC biogenesis is facilitated by several assembly ...
-
(2013-09-25)The mechanisms and causes of aging, the greatest risk factor of disease, are poorly understood. For aging at the single-cell level, this lack of knowledge results from limitations in the methods traditionally used in cell ...
-
The nuclear pore complex (NPC) is a gateway that controls what is exchanged across the nuclear envelope. Therefore, when something affects its assembly, the cell will die. The laboratory has a collection of Saccharomyces ...

(2015-05-07)The mechanisms and causes of aging, the greatest risk factor of disease, are poorly understood. This lack of knowledge—specifically in relation to the aging of single biological cells—results from limitations in the methods ...
-
Vacuoles in yeast are vital organelles that take on many important biological roles. They are responsible for collecting and detoxifying iron such that reactive oxygen species are not formed. They are also important storage ...
-
(2018-04-19)Mediator is a protein complex in eukaryotes which integrates signals from a diverse range of transcription factors and relays them to RNA polymerase. Much of mediator is highly conserved, but it is expected that some ...
