Nutrient Limitation On Phytoplankton Growth In The Upper Barataria Basin, Louisiana: Microcosm Bioassays, Ling Ren, Nancy N. Rabalais, R. Eugene Turner, Wendy Morrison, Warren Mendenhall Jun 2009

Nutrient Limitation On Phytoplankton Growth In The Upper Barataria Basin, Louisiana: Microcosm Bioassays, Ling Ren, Nancy N. Rabalais, R. Eugene Turner, Wendy Morrison, Warren Mendenhall

Faculty Publications

The Davis Pond Diversion (DPD) was constructed to divert Mississippi River (MR) water into the Barataria Basin to reduce the salinity in support of wetland restoration on the Louisiana coast. To assess the phytoplankton nutrient limitation in adjacent water systems and potential impacts of DPD, 12 seasonal nutrient-phytoplankton bioassay experiments were conducted from October 2003 to July 2004 using the natural phytoplankton assemblages from freshwater and brackish-water lakes, Cataouatche and Salvador, LA (USA), which receive Mississippi River water from the DPD, and from a nearby freshwater lake, Lac des Allemands, that does not. Dissolved inorganic nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P), and …

Isca/Sufa Paralogues Are Required For The [4fe-4s] Cluster Assembly In Enzymes Of Multiple Physiological Pathways In Escherichia Coli Under Aerobic Growth Conditions, Guoqiang Tan, Jianxin Lu, Jacob P. Bitoun, Hao Huang, Huangen Ding Jun 2009

Isca/Sufa Paralogues Are Required For The [4fe-4s] Cluster Assembly In Enzymes Of Multiple Physiological Pathways In Escherichia Coli Under Aerobic Growth Conditions, Guoqiang Tan, Jianxin Lu, Jacob P. Bitoun, Hao Huang, Huangen Ding

Faculty Publications

IscA/SufA paralogues are the members of the iron-sulfur cluster assembly machinery in Escherichia coli. Whereas deletion of either IscA or SufA has only a mild effect on cell growth, deletion of both IscA and SufA results in a null-growth phenotype in minimal medium under aerobic growth conditions. Here we report that cell growth of the iscA/sufA double mutant (E. coli strain in which both iscA and sufA had been in-frame-deleted) can be partially restored by supplementing with BCAAs (branched-chain amino acids) and thiamin. We further demonstrate that deletion of IscA/SufA paralogues blocks the [4Fe-4S] cluster assembly in IlvD (dihydroxyacid dehydratase) …

Purification Of A Water Extract Of Chinese Sweet Tea Plant (Rubus Suavissimus S. Lee) By Alcohol Precipitation, Gar Yee Koh, Guixin Chou, Zhijun Liu Jun 2009

Purification Of A Water Extract Of Chinese Sweet Tea Plant (Rubus Suavissimus S. Lee) By Alcohol Precipitation, Gar Yee Koh, Guixin Chou, Zhijun Liu

Faculty Publications

The aqueous extraction process of the leaves of Rubus suavissimus often brings in a large amount of nonactive Polysaccharides as part of the constituents. To purify this water extract for potential elevated bioactivity, an alcohol precipitation (AP) consisting of gradient regimens was applied, and its resultants were examined through colorimetric and HPLC analyses. AP was effective in partitioning the aqueous crude extract into a soluble supernatant and an insoluble precipitant, and its effect varied significantly with alcohol regimens. Generally, the higher the alcohol concentration, the purer was the resultant extract. At its maximum, approximately 36% (w/w) of the crude extract, …

Aebp2 As A Potential Targeting Protein For Polycomb Repression Complex Prc2, Hana Kim, Keunsoo Kang, Joomyeong Kim Jun 2009

Aebp2 As A Potential Targeting Protein For Polycomb Repression Complex Prc2, Hana Kim, Keunsoo Kang, Joomyeong Kim

Faculty Publications

AEBP2 is a zinc finger protein that has been shown to interact with the mammalian Polycomb Repression Complex 2 (PRC2). In the current study, we characterized this unknown protein and tested its potential targeting roles for the PRC2. AEBP2 is an evolutionarily well-conserved gene that is found in the animals ranging from flying insects to mammals. The transcription of mammalian AEBP2 is driven by two alternative promoters and produces at least two isoforms of the protein. These isoforms show developmental stage-specific expression patterns: the adult-specific larger form (51 kDa) and the embryo-specific smaller form (32 kDa). The AEBP2 protein binds …

Enzymatic Digestion Of Single Dna Molecules Anchored On Nanogold-Modified Surfaces, Junhong Lü, Ming Ye, Na Duan, Bin Li Jun 2009

Enzymatic Digestion Of Single Dna Molecules Anchored On Nanogold-Modified Surfaces, Junhong Lü, Ming Ye, Na Duan, Bin Li

Faculty Publications

To study enzyme-DNA interactions at single molecular level, both the attachment points and the immediate surroundings of surfaces must be carefully considered such that they do not compromise the structural information and biological properties of the sample under investigation. The present work demonstrates the feasibility of enzymatic digestion of single DNA molecules attached to nanoparticle-modified surfaces. With Nanogold linking DNA to the mica surface by electrostatic interactions, advantageous conditions with fewer effects on the length and topography of DNA are obtained, and an appropriate environment for the activities of DNA is created. We demonstrate that by using Dip-Pen Nanolithography, individual …

Why Some Species Of Birds Do Not Avoid Inbreeding: Insights From New Zealand Robins And Saddlebacks, Ian G. Jamieson, Sabrina S. Taylor, Lisa N. Tracy, Hanna Kokko, Doug P. Armstrong Jun 2009

Why Some Species Of Birds Do Not Avoid Inbreeding: Insights From New Zealand Robins And Saddlebacks, Ian G. Jamieson, Sabrina S. Taylor, Lisa N. Tracy, Hanna Kokko, Doug P. Armstrong

Faculty Publications

When dispersal options are limited and encounters with relatives are likely, individuals need to recognize and avoid mating with kin to avoid the fitness costs of close inbreeding. New Zealand robins and saddlebacks are genetically monogamous and possess life-history traits that predict they should show zero tolerance of close inbreeding. However, of 11 population-years of pedigree data, there was evidence of inbreeding avoidance in only 1 year. We also found no indication that incestuous pairings were avoided or that individuals were choosing genetically dissimilar mates based on microsatellite DNA analysis. Furthermore, a review of the literature revealed that inbreeding avoidance …

Migration-Selection Balance And Local Adaptation Of Mitochondrial Haplotypes In Rufous-Collared Sparrows (Zonotrichia Capensis) Along An Elevational Gradient, Zachary A. Cheviron, Robb T. Brumfield Jun 2009

Migration-Selection Balance And Local Adaptation Of Mitochondrial Haplotypes In Rufous-Collared Sparrows (Zonotrichia Capensis) Along An Elevational Gradient, Zachary A. Cheviron, Robb T. Brumfield

Faculty Publications

Variable selection pressures across heterogeneous landscapes can lead to local adaptation of populations. The extent of local adaptation depends on the interplay between natural selection and gene flow, but the nature of this relationship is complex. Gene flow can constrain local adaptation by eroding differentiation driven by natural selection, or local adaptation can itself constrain gene flow through selection against maladapted immigrants. Here we test for evidence that natural selection constrains gene flow among populations of a widespread passerine bird (Zonotrichia capensis) that are distributed along an elevational gradient in the Peruvian Andes. Using multilocus sequences and microsatellites screened in …

FindsiteLhm: A Threading-Based Approach To Ligand Homology Modeling, Michal Brylinski, Jeffrey Skolnick Jun 2009

FindsiteLhm: A Threading-Based Approach To Ligand Homology Modeling, Michal Brylinski, Jeffrey Skolnick

Faculty Publications

Ligand virtual screening is a widely used tool to assist in new pharmaceutical discovery. In practice, virtual screening approaches have a number of limitations, and the development of new methodologies is required. Previously, we showed that remotely related proteins identified by threading often share a common binding site occupied by chemically similar ligands. Here, we demonstrate that across an evolutionarily related, but distant family of proteins, the ligands that bind to the common binding site contain a set of strongly conserved anchor functional groups as well as a variable region that accounts for their binding specificity. Furthermore, the sequence and …

Risk Of Secondary Malignant Neoplasms From Proton Therapy And Intensity-Modulated X-Ray Therapy For Early-Stage Prostate Cancer, Jonas D. Fontenot, Andrew K. Lee, Wayne D. Newhauser Jun 2009

Risk Of Secondary Malignant Neoplasms From Proton Therapy And Intensity-Modulated X-Ray Therapy For Early-Stage Prostate Cancer, Jonas D. Fontenot, Andrew K. Lee, Wayne D. Newhauser

Faculty Publications

Purpose: To assess the risk of a secondary malignant neoplasm (SMN) from proton therapy relative to intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) using X-rays, taking into account contributions from both primary and secondary sources of radiation, for prostate cancer. Methods and Materials: A proton therapy plan and a 6-MV IMRT plan were constructed for 3 patients with early-stage adenocarcinoma of the prostate. Doses from the primary fields delivered to organs at risk of developing an SMN were determined from treatment plans. Secondary doses from the proton therapy and IMRT were determined from Monte Carlo simulations and available measured data, respectively. The risk …

High-Throughput Single Cell Arrays As A Novel Tool In Biopreservation, Kenneth L. Roach, Kevin R. King, Korkut Uygun, Steven C. Hand, Isaac S. Kohane, Martin L. Yarmush, Mehmet Toner Jun 2009

High-Throughput Single Cell Arrays As A Novel Tool In Biopreservation, Kenneth L. Roach, Kevin R. King, Korkut Uygun, Steven C. Hand, Isaac S. Kohane, Martin L. Yarmush, Mehmet Toner

Faculty Publications

Microwell array cytometry is a novel high-throughput experimental technique that makes it possible to correlate pre-stress cell phenotypes and post-stress outcomes with single cell resolution. Because the cells are seeded in a high density grid of cell-sized microwells, thousands of individual cells can be tracked and imaged through manipulations as extreme as freezing or drying. Unlike flow cytometry, measurements can be made at multiple time points for the same set of cells. Unlike conventional image cytometry, image analysis is greatly simplified by arranging the cells in a spatially defined pattern and physically separating them from one another. To demonstrate the …

Faculty Publications

The morphology of cornified structures is notoriously difficult to analyse because of the extreme range of hardness of their component tissues. Hence, a correlative approach using light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, three-dimensional reconstructions based on x-ray computed tomography data, and graphic modeling was applied to study the morphology of the cornified claw sheath of the domesticated cat as a model for cornified digital end organs. The highly complex architecture of the cornified claw sheath is generated by the living epidermis that is supported by the dermis and distal phalanx. The latter is characterized by an ossified unguicular hood, which overhangs …

Brucella ovis is a veterinary pathogen associated with epididymitis in sheep. Despite its genetic similarity to the zoonotic pathogens B. abortus, B. melitensis and B. suis, B. ovis does not cause zoonotic disease. Genomic analysis of the type strain ATCC25840 revealed a high percentage of pseudogenes and increased numbers of transposable elements compared to the zoonotic Brucella species, suggesting that genome degradation has occurred concomitant with narrowing of the host range of B. ovis. The absence of genomic island 2, encoding functions required for lipopolysaccharide biosynthesis, as well as inactivation of genes encoding urease, nutrient uptake and utilization, and outer …

Proton beam therapy has provided safe and effective treatments for a variety of adult cancers. In recent years, there has been increasing interest in utilizing proton therapy for pediatric cancers because it allows better sparing of healthy tissues. Minimizing exposures of normal tissues is especially important in children because they are highly susceptible to consequential late effects, including the development of a radiogenic second cancer, which may occur years or even decades after treatment of the first cancer. While the dosimetric advantage of therapeutic proton beams is well understood, relatively little attention has been paid to the whole-body exposure to …

Effective Dose From Stray Radiation For A Patient Receiving Proton Therapy For Liver Cancer, Phillip J. Taddei, Sunil Krishnan, Dragan Mirkovic, Pablo Yepes, Wayne D. Newhauser May 2009

Effective Dose From Stray Radiation For A Patient Receiving Proton Therapy For Liver Cancer, Phillip J. Taddei, Sunil Krishnan, Dragan Mirkovic, Pablo Yepes, Wayne D. Newhauser

Faculty Publications

Because of its advantageous depth-dose relationship, proton radiotherapy is an emerging treatment modality for patients with liver cancer. Although the proton dose distribution conforms to the target, healthy tissues throughout the body receive low doses of stray radiation, particularly neutrons that originate in the treatment unit or in the patient. The aim of this study was to calculate the effective dose from stray radiation and estimate the corresponding risk of second cancer fatality for a patient receiving proton beam therapy for liver cancer. Effective dose from stray radiation was calculated using detailed Monte Carlo simulations of a double-scattering proton therapy …

Structure And Functions Of Keratin Proteins In Simple, Stratified, Keratinized And Cornified Epithelia, Hermann H. Bragulla, Dominique G. Homberger May 2009

Structure And Functions Of Keratin Proteins In Simple, Stratified, Keratinized And Cornified Epithelia, Hermann H. Bragulla, Dominique G. Homberger

Faculty Publications

Historically, the term 'keratin' stood for all of the proteins extracted from skin modifications, such as horns, claws and hooves. Subsequently, it was realized that this keratin is actually a mixture of keratins, keratin filament-associated proteins and other proteins, such as enzymes. Keratins were then defined as certain filament-forming proteins with specific physicochemical properties and extracted from the cornified layer of the epidermis, whereas those filament-forming proteins that were extracted from the living layers of the epidermis were grouped as 'prekeratins' or 'cytokeratins'. Currently, the term 'keratin' covers all intermediate filament-forming proteins with specific physicochemical properties and produced in any …

Repair-Mediated Duplication By Capture Of Proximal Chromosomal Dna Has Shaped Vertebrate Genome Evolution, John K. Pace, Shurjo K. Sen, Mark A. Batzer, Cédric Feschotte

Faculty Publications

DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are a common form of cellular damage that can lead to cell death if not repaired promptly. Experimental systems have shown that DSB repair in eukaryotic cells is often imperfect and may result in the insertion of extra chromosomal DNA or the duplication of existing DNA at the breakpoint. These events are thought to be a source of genomic instability and human diseases, but it is unclear whether they have contributed significantly to genome evolution. Here we developed an innovative computational pipeline that takes advantage of the repetitive structure of genomes to detect repair-mediated duplication events …

Cobaltacarborane-Phthalocyanine Conjugates: Syntheses And Photophysical Properties, Hairong Li, Frank R. Fronczek, M. Graça H. Vicente

Faculty Publications

Syntheses of two new cobaltacarborane-phthalocyanine conjugates, one anionic (Pc 6) and one zwitterionic (Pc 7), were accomplished via cyclotetramerization of the corresponding cobaltacarborane-substituted phthalonitriles (4 or 5) with excess phthalonitrile in quinoline. X-ray structures of two phthalonitrile precursors (2 and 3) were obtained and are discussed, and the absorption and emission properties of the two cobaltacarborane-phthalocyanine conjugates in several solvents were investigated. The anionic conjugate 6 exists mainly as a monomer in polar organic solvents and has fluorescence quantum yields in the region 0.2-0.3. The zwitterionic conjugate 7 aggregates in solution and displays lower quantum yields ∼0.1 in organic solvents. …

The hindgut of feeding termites that feed on wood and litter contains a diverse population of bacteria and protists that contribute to the carbon, nitrogen, and energy requirements of the termite. For understanding the ecological balance in the termite gut, detailed knowledge about the composition of the microbial gut flora is imperative, i.e., the numbers and relative proportions of the microbial taxa and the variability in the microbial composition among different termite colonies and living conditions of termites should be described. Therefore, we isolated and enumerated eight bacterial morphotypes from the gut of the Formosan subterranean termite, Coptotermes]]formosanus Shiraki. Five …

Interpreting Facial Expressions: The Influence Of Social Anxiety, Emotional Valence, And Race, Lora Rose Hunter, Julia D. Buckner, Norman B. Schmidt

Faculty Publications

Social anxiety is posited to be linked to interpersonal skills deficits, including accurate interpretation of emotional social cues, such as facial expressions. However, empirical support for an interpersonal skills deficit model of social anxiety is lacking. Studies of information processes indicate that socially anxious individuals may be more accurate at identifying threatening facial expressions in particular. In the present study, undergraduates who self-identified as Caucasian (N = 158) completed a task assessing facial expression accuracy. Relevant parameters such as emotional valence as well as race of the target were assessed. As predicted, socially anxious individuals were overall more accurate at …
