The Evolution Of Protein Components Of Insect Spermtail Axonemes, Lisa M. Griffith Jan 2007

The Evolution Of Protein Components Of Insect Spermtail Axonemes, Lisa M. Griffith

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Drosophilids spermtails are considered to be the peacock feathers of the world of sperm, by virtue of their incredible length. This extreme length may be supported by their use of a unique, specialized, testis-specific Beta2 tubulin. Beta2 has a highly stringent structure/function relationship to the Drosophilid spermtail axoneme, such that even small amino acid changes render it non-functional. How then, does this protein evolve, while maintaining is function? We hypothesize that it may need to co-evolve with other axonemal proteins. Here, one and two dimensional gel electrophoresis was used to compare the testes proteomes of several fly species in an …

The Relationship Among Stress, Support, Depression, And Academic Performance For Rural Adolescents, Sandra Ann Hartings Jan 2007

The Relationship Among Stress, Support, Depression, And Academic Performance For Rural Adolescents, Sandra Ann Hartings

Graduate Theses and Dissertations

The constructs of stress, support, depression, and academic performance have been mostly addressed on an individual basis. Stress research with children and adolescents has not been as rigorous as research with adults. There are also a number of gaps in the research literature related to support. The decrease in age of the first onset of depressive episodes, along with the high prevalence of depression in adolescence, emphasizes the need to expand research in this area. Also, few studies have attempted to identify interpersonal variables that may serve as antecedents of school achievement. The purpose of this study was to examine …
