Biochemical Characterization Of The Estrogen Receptor Alpha (Erα) Coactivator E6-Ap, Skp2 And Fbxl6, Wen Zhou
Biochemical Characterization Of The Estrogen Receptor Alpha (Erα) Coactivator E6-Ap, Skp2 And Fbxl6, Wen Zhou
Open Access Dissertations
Many transcription factors undergo transcription-coupled proteolysis. While ligand binding activates ubiquitin-proteolysis of estrogen receptor alpha (ER), mechanisms governing this and its relationship to transcriptional activation were unclear. In this thesis, I present the evidence indicating that different ubiquitin ligases, including E6-AP and SCF/SKP2 regulate ER protein stability and transcriptional activity. SKP2 project support a model in which estrogen-activated CyclinE-CDK2 binds and phosphorylates ER-S341, to prime ER-SCF/SKP2 binding via SKP2-L248QTLL252 in late G1. SKP2 activates ER ubiquitylation and proteolysis. Putative late ER targets were identified by expression profiling, SKP2 knockdown attenuated E2F-1 and BLM induction. SKP2 overexpression, but not coactivator motif …

An Experimental Study Of Strong Reciprocity In Bacteria, R. Inglis, R. Inglis, Stuart West, Angus Buckling
An Experimental Study Of Strong Reciprocity In Bacteria, R. Inglis, R. Inglis, Stuart West, Angus Buckling
Biology Department Faculty Works
Strong reciprocity, whereby cooperators punish non-cooperators, may help to explain the evolutionary success of cooperative behaviours. However, theory suggests that selection for strong reciprocity can depend upon tight genetic linkage between cooperation and punishment, to avoid the strategy being outcompeted by non-punishing cooperators. We tested this hypothesis using experimental populations of the bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which cooperate by producing iron-scavenging siderophores and, in this context, punish non-cooperators with toxins. Consistent with theory, we show that cooperative punishers can indeed invade cheats, but only when the traits are tightly linked. These results emphasize that punishment is only likely to be favoured …
A Conceptual Framework For Clutch-Size Evolution In Songbirds, Thomas E. Martin
A Conceptual Framework For Clutch-Size Evolution In Songbirds, Thomas E. Martin
Wildlife Biology Faculty Publications
Causes of evolved differences in clutch size among songbird species remain debated. I propose a new conceptual framework that integrates aspects of traditional life-history theory while including novel elements to explain evolution of clutch size among songbirds. I review evidence that selection by nest predation on length of time that offspring develop in the nest creates a gradient in offspring characteristics at nest leaving (fledging), including flight mobility, spatial dispersion, and self-feeding rate. I postulate that this gradient has consequences for offspring mortality rates and parental energy expenditure per offspring. These consequences then determine how reproductive effort is partitioned among …

Copy Number Variation In Chickens: A Review And Future Prospects, Xiaofei Wang, Shannon Byers
Biology Faculty Research
DNA sequence variations include nucleotide substitution, deletion, insertion, translocation and inversion. Deletion or insertion of a large DNA segment in the genome, referred to as copy number variation (CNV), has caught the attention of many researchers recently. It is believed that CNVs contribute significantly to genome variability, and thus contribute to phenotypic variability. In chickens, genome-wide surveys with array comparative genome hybridization (aCGH), SNP chip detection or whole genome sequencing have revealed a large number of CNVs. A large portion of chicken CNVs involves protein coding or regulatory sequences. A few CNVs have been demonstrated to be the determinant factors …

The Evolutionary Function Of Conscious Information Processing Is Revealed By Its Task-Dependency In The Olfactory System, Andreas Keller
The Evolutionary Function Of Conscious Information Processing Is Revealed By Its Task-Dependency In The Olfactory System, Andreas Keller
Publications and Research
Although many responses to odorous stimuli are mediated without olfactory information being consciously processed, some olfactory behaviors require conscious information processing. I will here contrast situations in which olfactory information is processed consciously to situations in which it is processed non-consciously. This contrastive analysis reveals that conscious information processing is required when an organism is faced with tasks in which there are many behavioral options available. I therefore propose that it is the evolutionary function of conscious information processing to guide behaviors in situations in which the organism has to choose between many possible responses.

Variable Facial Plumage In Juvenile Cliff Swallows: A Potential Offspring Recognition Cue?, Allison E. Johnson, Steven Freedberg
Variable Facial Plumage In Juvenile Cliff Swallows: A Potential Offspring Recognition Cue?, Allison E. Johnson, Steven Freedberg
School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications
Although the ability to recognize related offspring is essential in the evolution of social behavior, the cues that birds use to identify their own offspring are not fully understood. The Cliff Swallow (Petrochelidon pyrrhonota) is a highly social species that nests in large colonies and exhibits a high incidence of both conspecific brood parasitism and extrapair fertilization, behaviors that can potentially lead to parents investing energy and resources in unrelated offspring, which reduces the parents’ genetic fitness. Because parents continue to feed offspring after they leave the nest, parents also risk investing in unrelated offspring by misidentifying their …

Influence Networks Based On Coexpression Improve Drug Target Discovery For The Development Of Novel Cancer Therapeutics, Nadia M. Penrod, Jason H. Moore
Dartmouth Scholarship
Background: Thedemandfornovelmolecularlytargeteddrugswillcontinuetoriseaswemoveforwardtowardthe goal of personalizing cancer treatment to the molecular signature of individual tumors. However, the identification of targets and combinations of targets that can be safely and effectively modulated is one of the greatest challenges facing the drug discovery process. A promising approach is to use biological networks to prioritize targets based on their relative positions to one another, a property that affects their ability to maintain network integrity and propagate information-flow. Here, we introduce influence networks and demonstrate how they can be used to generate influence scores as a network-based metric to rank genes as potential drug targets. …

Sevoflurane preconditioning against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury is lost if the ischemic insult is too long. Emerging evidence suggests that induction of autophagy may also confer cardioprotection against ischemia-reperfusion injury. We examined whether induction of autophagy prolongs sevoflurane preconditioning protection during a longer ischemic insult. Isolated guinea pigs hearts were subjected to 30 or 45 min ischemia, followed by 120 min reperfusion (control). Anesthetic preconditioning was elicited with 2% sevoflurane for 10 min prior to ischemia (SEVO-30, SEVO-45). Chloramphenicol (autophagy upregulator, 300 µM) was administered starting 20 min before ischemia and throughout reperfusion in SEVO-45 (SEVO-45+CAP). To inhibit autophagy, 3-methyladenine (10 …

Coherent anti-Stokes Raman scattering (CARS) microscopy is a powerful imaging technique that can provide chemical information of organic and nonorganic materials through vibrational spectroscopy. However, its contrast is not sufficient for monitoring thin film materials. In this study, silica microspheres were employed for enhancing the signal contrast in CARS imaging. One layer of optically transparent silica microspheres was self-assembled onto polymer grating samples to enhance the CARS signals. The highest contrast enhancement factor of 12.5 was achieved using 6.1-μm-diameter microspheres. Finite-difference timedomain method (FDTD) simulation was conducted to simulate the contrast enhancement with silica microspheres of different diameters.

Communication networks are linked to and influenced by human interactions. Socially aware systems should integrate these complex relationship patterns in the network design. This paper studies the impact of friendship and antagonistic relationships between individuals on optimal network propagation policies. We develop a network propagation model for signed networks and determine the optimal policies to influence a target node with an opinion while minimizing the total number of persons against it. We also provide extensions to this problem to elaborate on the impact of network parameters, such as minimum-delay propagation, while limiting the number of persons influenced against the idea …
