The Effects Of Climate Change On Basic Animal Cell Functions, Michelle Fulbright, Andrew Andres
Festival of Communities: UG Symposium (Posters)
Increasing global temperatures during the 21st century may have detrimental effects on basic cell functions within ectothermal animals. This project aims to systematically examine the effects of climate change on secretory cargo localization through the analysis of Rab Proteins found in the model organism Drosophila melanogaster. Rab Proteins play an essential role in vesicular transport within the cell and can be genetically manipulated to monitor the biological consequences of global warming.
