Arabidopsis Shoot Gravitropism Requires The Mediator Coactivator Complex, Gabriella Newton

Honors Theses

Gravitropism is a plant response to gravity in directing the growth of its organs, such as the root and the stem. Gravity is sensed by statocytes, unique cells that contain starch-filled amyloplasts, which trigger gravitropic growth response by modulating the distribution of growth hormone auxin in the elongation zone of the stem and root. Despite the fact that multiple factors have been identified as key regulators of shoot negative gravitropism, how these factors are regulated at the transcriptional level is largely unknown. In this study, we explore the role of transcriptional machinery in regulating shoot gravity sensing and responses by …

Um Awards Achieving Equity Grants, Rebecca Lauck Cleary

Blood-Flow-Restriction-Training-Induced Hormonal Response Is Not Associated With Gains In Muscle Size And Strength, Gilberto C. Laurentino, Jeremy P. Loenneke, Carlos Ugrinowitsch, Marcelo S. Aoki, Antonio G. Soares, Hamilton Roschel, Valmor Tricoli

Faculty and Student Publications

The aim of this study was to determine whether increases in post-exercise endocrine response to low-load resistance exercise with blood flow restriction and high-load resistance exercise would have association with increases in muscle size and strength after an 8-week training period. Twenty-nine untrained men were randomly allocated into three groups: low-load resistance exercise with (LL-BFR) or without blood flow restriction (LL), and high-load resistance exercise (HL). Participants from LL-BFR and LL groups performed leg extension exercise at 20% of one repetition maximum (1RM), four sets of 15 repetitions and the HL group performed four sets of eight repetitions at 80% …

The Anthropocene Reviewed, John Green

Common Reading Experience

The University of Mississippi‘s 2022 Common Reading Experience selection -- The Anthropocene Reviewed by John Green -- was chosen as the communal text for 2022, and will be the focus of university-wide discussions and programming throughout 2022.

The Anthropocene is the current geologic age, in which humans have profoundly reshaped the planet and its biodiversity. In this remarkable symphony of essays adapted and expanded from his groundbreaking podcast, bestselling author John Green reviews different facets of the human-centered planet on a five-star scale—from the QWERTY keyboard and sunsets to Canada geese and Penguins of Madagascar.

Syllabus: Queer Mississippi (Fall 2022), Amy Mcdowell

Course Events, Presentations, and Syllabi

Course syllabus for Queer Mississippi, Fall 2022. Cross-listed as SOC596/HST596/GST596/SST596 (Sociology, History, Gender Studies, Southern Studies)

Course description: Current scholarship on LGBTQ+ lives emphasizes an interdisciplinary approach, combining archival methods with oral histories, and employing a wide range of source materials. This cross-listed course, aimed at graduate students and upper-level undergraduates, focuses on Queer Mississippi lives, communities, and movements from a historical and sociological perspective. It trains students how to conduct and analyze interview and archival research, and gives students experience with creating a community engaged research exhibition on Queer Mississippi. The first part of the course introduces students to …

Faculty and Student Publications

Pilitropic and flagellotropic phages adsorb to bacterial pili and flagella. These phages have long been used to investigate multiple aspects of bacterial physiology, such as the cell cycle control in the Caulobacterales. Targeting cellular appendages for adsorption effectively constrains the population of infectable hosts, suggesting that phages may have developed strategies to maximize their infective yield. Brevundimonas phage vB_BsubS-Delta is a recently characterized pilitropic phage infecting the Alphaproteobacterium Brevundimonas subvibrioides. Like other Caulobacterales, B. subvibrioides divides asymmetrically and its cell cycle is governed by multiple transcriptional regulators, including the master regulator CtrA. Genomic characterization of phage vB_BsubS-Delta identified the presence …

Myosin Ii Adjusts Motility Properties And Regulates Force Production Based On Motor Environment, Omayma Y. Al Azzam, Janie C. Watts, Justin E. Reynolds, Juliana E. Davis, Dana N. Reinemann

Faculty and Student Publications

Introduction—Myosin II has been investigated with optical trapping, but single motor-filament assay arrangements are not reflective of the complex cellular environment. To understand how myosin interactions propagate up in scale to accomplish system force generation, we devised a novel actomyosin ensemble optical trapping assay that reflects the hierarchy and compliancy of a physiological environment and is modular for interrogating force effectors.

Methods—Hierarchical actomyosin bundles were formed in vitro. Fluorescent template and cargo actin filaments (AF) were assembled in a flow cell and bundled by myosin. Beads were added in the presence of ATP to bind the cargo AF …
