Mutation Linked To Autosomal Dominant Nocturnal Frontal Lobe Epilepsy Reduces Low-Sensitivity Α4Β2, And Increases Α5Α4Β2, Nicotinic Receptor Surface Expression, Weston A. Nichols, Brandon J. Henderson, Christopher B. Marotta, Caroline Y. Yu, Chris Richards, Dennis A. Dougherty, Henry A. Lester, Bruce N. Cohen

Chemistry Faculty Publications

A number of mutations in α4β2-containing (α4β2*) nicotinic acetylcholine (ACh) receptors (nAChRs) are linked to autosomal dominant nocturnal frontal lobe epilepsy (ADNFLE), including one in the β2 subunit called β2V287L. Two α4β2* subtypes with different subunit stoichiometries and ACh sensitivities co-exist in the brain, a high-sensitivity subtype with (α4)₂(β2)₃ subunit stoichiometry and a low-sensitivity subtype with (α4)₃(β2)₂ stoichiometry. The α5 nicotinic subunit also co-assembles with α4β2 to form a high-sensitivity α5α4β2 nAChR. Previous studies suggest that the β2V287L mutation suppresses low-sensitivity α4β2* nAChR expression in a knock-in mouse model and also that α5 co-expression …

Range-Wide Patterns Of Geographic Variation In Songs Of Golden-Crowned Sparrows (Zonotrichia Atricapilla), Daizaburo Shizuka, M Ross Lein, Glen Chilton

School of Biological Sciences: Faculty Publications

Discrete geographic variation, or dialects, in songs of songbirds arise as a consequence of complex interactions between ecology and song learning. Four of the five species of Zonotrichia sparrows, including the model species White-crowned Sparrow (Z. leucophrys), have been studied with respect to the causes and consequences of geographic variation in song. Within White-crowned Sparrows, subspecies that migrate farther have larger range size of dialects. Here, we assessed geographic patterns of song variation in the fifth species of this genus, the Golden-crowned Sparrow (Z. atricapilla). We analyzed field-recorded songs from 2 sampling periods (1996–1998 and 2006–2013) …

Sine-Wave Electrical Stimulation Initiates A Voltage-Gated Potassium Channel-Dependent Soft Tissue Response Characterized By Induction Of Hemocyte Recruitment And Collagen Deposition, Brandon M. Franklin, Eleni Maroudas, Jeffrey L. Osborn

Biology Faculty Publications

Soft tissue repair is a complex process that requires specific communication between multiple cell types to orchestrate effective restoration of physiological functions. Macrophages play a critical role in this wound healing process beginning at the onset of tissue injury. Understanding the signaling mechanisms involved in macrophage recruitment to the wound site is an essential step for developing more effective clinical therapies. Macrophages are known to respond to electrical fields, but the underlying cellular mechanisms mediating this response is unknown. This study demonstrated that low‐amplitude sine‐wave electrical stimulation (ES) initiates a soft tissue response in the absence of injury in Procambarus …

A Cell Cycle-Regulated Toxoplasma Deubiquitinase, Tgotud3a, Targets Polyubiquitins With Specific Lysine Linkages, Animesh Dhara, Anthony P. Sinai

Microbiology, Immunology, and Molecular Genetics Faculty Publications

The contribution of ubiquitin-mediated mechanisms in the regulation of the Toxoplasma gondii cell cycle has remained largely unexplored. Here, we describe the functional characterization of a T. gondii deubiquitinase (TGGT1_258780) of the ovarian-tumor domain-containing (OTU) family, which, based on its structural homology to the human OTUD3 clade, has been designated TgOTUD3A. The TgOTUD3A protein is expressed in a cell cycle-dependent manner mimicking its mRNA expression, indicating that it is regulated primarily at the transcriptional level. TgOTUD3A, which was found in the cytoplasm at low levels in G₁ parasites, increased in abundance with the progression of the …

Local Versus Generalized Phenotypes In Two Sympatric Aurelia Species: Understanding Jellyfish Ecology Using Genetics And Morphometrics, Luciano M. Chiaverano, Keith Bayha, William M. Graham

Faculty Publications

For individuals living in environmentally heterogeneous environments, a key component for adaptation and persistence is the extent of phenotypic differentiation in response to local environmental conditions. In order to determine the extent of environmentally induced morphological variation in a natural population distributed along environmental gradients, it is necessary to account for potential genetic differences contributing to morphological differentiation. In this study, we set out to quantify geographic morphological variation in the moon jellyfish Aurelia exposed at the extremes of a latitudinal environmental gradient in the Gulf of Mexico (GoM). We used morphological data based on 28 characters, and genetic data …

Optimizing Methods For Extraction Of Organic Compounds From Molluscan Shells, Kaydee Jo West

USF Tampa Graduate Theses and Dissertations

Mollusk shells contain proteins within and between the crystals of calcium carbonate. These organic molecules play an important role in biomineralization and shell function, and their stable isotope ratios of carbon and nitrogen are also thought to record important ecological information about the animal's diet and nutrient sources. These proteins can be preserved for millions of years, offering potential insight into pre-anthropogenic ecological conditions. However, shell organics in older shells are typically recovered in reduced abundances due to leaching and remaining organics are often converted from insoluble proteins to soluble, free amino acids, making them difficult to detect and recover. …

Microrna Mir-155 Is Necessary For Efficient Gammaherpesvirus Reactivation From Latency, But Not For Establishment Of Latency, Rebecca L. Crepeau, Peisheng Zhang, Edward J. Usherwood

Dartmouth Scholarship

MicroRNA-155 (miR-155) has been shown to play significant roles in the immune response, including in the formation of germinal centers (GC) and the development and maturation of T follicular helper (Tfh) cells. There is in vitro evidence to support a critical role for cellular miR-155 and viral miR-155 homologs in the establishment of gammaherpesvirus latency in B cells. We sought to determine the contribution of miR-155 to the establishment and maintenance of latency in vivousing murine gammaherpesvirus (MHV-68) infection. MHV-68-infected mice deficient in miR-155 exhibited decreases in GC B cells and Tfh cells. However, the frequencies of spleen cells …

Ab Blood Type And Its Genetic Relationship To Alzheimer’S Disease, Mark Wadsworth, John S. K. Kauwe

Journal of Undergraduate Research

Alzheimer’s Disease (AD) is a debilitating disease that has increased the hardship of many lives. Many people above the age of 65 have been diagnosed with this genetically complex disease, which financially and emotionally burdens those diagnosed and their families. Earlier this year a study was released that found, using a dataset of individuals that have had strokes, that individuals with AB blood type are more at risk of developing cognitive impairment[1]. This study however was not looking at the genetics of AD. My objective in performing this study was to see if there is a genetic association between Alzheimer’s …

Farm Program Update: Arc And Plc Support, Bradley D. Lubben

Cornhusker Economics

As commodity prices have fallen substantially since 2012, crop revenue and farm income have suffered. To illustrate, the national marketing year average price for corn has fallen from a record high of $6.89 per bushel in the 2012/2013 marketing year to a projected $3.50 per bushel for the 2016/2017 marketing year, based on supply and demand estimates published by USDA in June. With similar price weakness across other crops, the impact on crop revenue and farm income has been dramatic. U.S. net farm income is projected to fall to $54.8 billion for 2016, more than 50% below the record $123.3 …

Effects Of Multilevel Selection On The Evolution Of Homo Neandertalensis, Tracey Renee Lancaster

Ursidae: The Undergraduate Research Journal at the University of Northern Colorado

In this article, a model is used based on a paper by E. O. Wilson et al. (2007) to examine how multilevel selection has affected the evolution of Neandertals. Multilevel selection theory states natural selection occurs in multiple levels of the biological hierarchy. This model has never been applied to a hominid species to date. By synthesizing this research by Wilson et al. and genetic studies by Green et al. (2010) revealing that Neandertals and humans interbred in the Middle East 80,000 years ago, it is shown that multilevel selection may have affected Neandertal evolution. Further, it is argued that …
