Characterizing The Editing Modes Of Duplicated Leucyl-Trna Synthetases In The Archaea Sulfolobus Islandicus, Evan T. Strandquist

Theses and Dissertations

Aminoacyl-transfer RNA synthetases (aaRSs) catalyze the attachment of an amino acid to the 3’-end of a cognate tRNA in a two-step reaction, fulfilling a pivotal role in RNA translation by providing “charged” tRNA for protein synthesis. Synthetases possess a catalytic core where amino acids are activated via adenylation with the subsequent transfer of that activated amino acid to the acceptor adenosine at position 76 of the tRNA sequence.1,2 The fidelity of tRNA aminoacylation is essential for faithful protein synthesis and requires the aaRS to discriminate against chemically and structurally similar amino acids, though some studies suggest that aaRS-dependent errors can …

Abortions At Sea: In Search Of Creative Reproductive Healthcare Solutions Post-Dobbs, William Fox

Cardozo Journal of Equal Rights and Social Justice (ERSJ) Blog

Following the Supreme Court’s decision in Dobbs, access to reproductive healthcare and the right to abortion have been severely restricted across the United States. Indeed, within days of the decision, multiple states implemented trigger laws criminalizing abortion (in some cases without exceptions for instances of rape or incest) to the detriment of millions women across the country. This infringement on a woman's right to choose her own healthcare needs has profoundly impacted women living in conservative-led states, particularly minorities and those in the American South.

Made In His Image: How Christian God Image Influences Interpersonal Judgments Of Severe Mental Illness, Austin Davis

Undergraduate Honors Theses

After a review of the relevant literature on God image and interpersonal judgment theories and research, a priming study was used to analyze the relationship between God image and judgment of people with severe mental illness. Participants made judgments of a video presentation of a man with schizophrenia either before or after being given a questionnaire about their God image. Analysis of covariance (ANCOVA) analysis showed no statistically significant differences between those who were primed to reflect on their God image before making the judgment and those who were not, although the small effect size (d = -0.30) indicated …

Stony Brook University Ka-Band Polarimetric Radar And Mobile Sounding Data From Snowstorm Observations, Mariko Oue

SoMAS Research Data

Snowbands in the comma head of winter storms are responsible for much of the heavy snowfall over the northeast United States. Because of the large societal impacts of these winter storms, they have been studied for decades using both numerical models and observations. However, limited knowledge still exists about ~100 m scale precipitation processes within U.S. Northeast coastal snowstorms because of a lack of high-resolution observations. We collected observational data for the U.S. Northeast coastal snowstorms using high-resolution, high-sensitivity Ka-band cloud radar and mobile sounding system. The observed snowstorm cases includes 4 January 2018, 18 January 2020, 16-17 December 2020, …

The Perception Of Stigma As A Barrier To Help-Seeking Among Immigrant Populations, Zuha Qadeer

Honors Program: Senior Projects (Public)

Immigrants receive mental health services less than their U.S.-born counterparts, even after accounting for the lower rate of mental health difficulties often found among these populations. Stigma is one such barrier that is significant in reducing mental health service utilization among immigrant populations. This study explores how immigrants perceive stigma as a barrier to seeking help for trauma-related mental health concerns. Using qualitative data from a study on an adaptation of Written Exposure Therapy in Latinx immigrants (Andrews et. al, 2022), I examined the role of stigma in participants’ perceived barriers to care and their proposed strategies for reducing them. …

Prognostication Of Dna Damage Response Protein Expression Patterns In Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia, Ti'ara L Griffen, Fieke W Hoff, Yihua Qiu, Jan Burger, William Wierda, Steven M Kornblau

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

Proteomic DNA Damage Repair (DDR) expression patterns in Chronic Lymphocytic Leukemia were characterized by quantifying and clustering 24 total and phosphorylated DDR proteins. Overall, three protein expression patterns (C1-C3) were identified and were associated as an independent predictor of distinct patient overall survival outcomes. Patients within clusters C1 and C2 had poorer survival outcomes and responses to fludarabine, cyclophosphamide, and rituxan chemotherapy compared to patients within cluster C3. However, DDR protein expression patterns were not prognostic in more modern therapies with BCL2 inhibitors or a BTK/PI3K inhibitor. Individually, nine of the DDR proteins were prognostic for predicting overall survival and/or …

Faculty, Staff and Student Publications

DNA damage response (DNADR) recognition and repair (DDR) pathways affect carcinogenesis and therapy responsiveness in cancers, including leukemia. We measured protein expression levels of 16 DNADR and DDR proteins using the Reverse Phase Protein Array methodology in acute myeloid (AML) (n = 1310), T-cell acute lymphoblastic leukemia (T-ALL) (n = 361) and chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL) (n = 795) cases. Clustering analysis identified five protein expression clusters; three were unique compared to normal CD34+ cells. Individual protein expression differed by disease for 14/16 proteins, with five highest in CLL and nine in T-ALL, and by age in …

Clinicopathological Classification Of Immune Checkpoint Inhibitor-Associated Myocarditis: Possible Refinement By Measuring Macrophage Abundance, Jesus Jimenez, Nicolas Kostelecky, Joshua D Mitchell, Kathleen W Zhang, Chieh-Yu Lin, Daniel J Lenihan, Kory J Lavine

2020-Current year OA Pubs

BACKGROUND: Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) myocarditis is associated with high morbidity and mortality. While endomyocardial biopsy (EMB) is considered a gold standard for diagnosis, the sensitivity of EMB is not well defined. Additionally, the pathological features that correlate with the clinical diagnosis of ICI-associated myocarditis remain incompletely understood.

METHODS: We retrospectively identified and reviewed the clinicopathological features of 26 patients with suspected ICI-associated myocarditis based on institutional major and minor criteria. Seventeen of these patients underwent EMB, and the histopathological features were assessed by routine hematoxylin and eosin (H&E) staining and immunohistochemical (IHC) staining for CD68, a macrophage marker.

RESULTS: …

Perspectives On Adaptive Functioning And Intellectual Functioning Measures For Intellectual Disabilities Behavioral Research, Laura J. Mattie, Susan J. Loveall, Marie Moore Channell, Derek B. Rodgers

Department of Special Education and Communication Disorders: Faculty Publications

Introduction: Intellectual disability (ID) is a significant limitation in both intellectual ability and adaptive functioning, but many studies of participants with ID only include a measure of overall intellectual functioning when describing their samples. The purpose of this perspective article was to provide a starting point for future research regarding the utility of including measures of both intellectual and adaptive functioning in research focused on ID. In this article, we discuss the differences and similarities between the constructs of intellectual and adaptive functioning, how they are measured, and the benefits of using both measures to describe participant abilities.

Movers, Switchers, And Exiters: Teacher Turnover During Covid-19, Andrew Camp, Gema Zamarro, Josh B. Mcgee

Education Reform Faculty and Graduate Students Publications

In this brief, we examine teacher turnover in the state of Arkansas both before and during the COVID-19 pandemic. In line with available reports from Washington State, North Carolina, and South Carolina, we find evidence of increased teacher turnover in Arkansas entering the current school year. However, a large proportion of this turnover can be explained not by teachers leaving the education sector but switching to non-instructional roles such as principals or instructional coaches. The use of Elementary and Secondary School Emergency Relief (ESSER) funds may be driving these transitions. A survey of schools conducted by the National Center for …
