Characterization of defects in cardiac regulation in macho and bandoneon mutant zebrafish
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2008-12) -
Characterization of glycan-protein interactions in SARS-CoV-2 and Parkinson's disease
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2022-08)ABSTRACT. Heparan sulfate (HS) acts as a co-receptor of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) by interacting with severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) spike glycoprotein (SGP), facilitating ... -
Characterization of the RNF complex (NADH : ferredoxin oxidoreductase) in Escherichia coli and Vibrio cholerae
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2007-08) -
Characterization of the thymidine kinase in herpes virus-transformed cells
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 1976-12)When ATP was omitted from the reaction mixture used in the thymidirte kinase assay, no thymidine monophosphate was formed by the viral or cytosol enzymes. However thymidine monophosphate was formed by the mitochondrial ... -
Chemoenzymatic synthesis of heparan sulfates, and investigations of their role in cell signaling, human health and disease
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2018-05)Heparan sulfate and heparin are linear polysaccharides, called glycosaminoglycans, which possess many important biological and pharmacological activities. While heparin has historically received most of the scientific ... -
Closing the gap between tissue structure-function relationships
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2012-05) -
Comparative analysis of Kar3Vik1 and Kar3Cik1 ATPase mechanism
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2012-05) -
Computational methods for the incorporation of protein unfolding pathways and kinetics in protein design
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2018-08)If proteins achieved their native structure through a random search of every potential conformation, the first proteins would still be folding today. However, most proteins fold on the timescale of milliseconds to a few ... -
Connecting protein structural knowledge to sequence analysis and design : implications for links between sequences and structures
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2008-05) -
Cyclic tensile strain promotes COL-I induced osteogenic differentiation and enhances lineage commitment gene focusing of human mesenchymal stem cells
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2007-08) -
D397 in subunit B of the Vibrio cholerae Na+-pumping NADH: quinone oxidoreductase is involved in cation uptake - an analysis by steady state / transient kinetics and nuclear magnetic resonance
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2012-05) -
Deciphering start dynamics in budding yeast using scanning number and brightness
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2021-12)Cell size homeostasis reflects the coordination between cell growth and division and is vital to all living organisms. This coordination is achieved primarily at the G1/S phase transition, termed Start in budding yeast. ... -
Effectiveness of cooling tower biocides against algae and Legionella pneumophila and mode of action of BIS (tributyltin) oxide
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 1981-05) -
Engineering a split-GFP system for direct pathogen detection
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2016-08)The process often requires mutations of residues surrounding the chromophore and could lead to a loss of function and destabilization. Therefore, four different studies were initiated and are described. The first set of ... -
Engineering leave-one-out GFP based biosensors
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2016-08)To this end we proposed the development of a biosensor platform based on the green fluorescent protein (GFP) called leave-one-out GFP (LOO-GFP) biosensors. This platform is built on the principle that when one of the 11 ... -
Evaluation of manure additives for odor control and their influence on total aerobic heterotrophs and actinomycetes
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2000-08) -
Exploring alternative expression systems for expression of heterologous proteins and metabolic pathways
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2016-08)Our next goal was to use chromosomal integration for metabolic engineering. Multiple studies, from our laboratory and others, have found that modulatin of gene expression is key to pathway optimization. Generally, this ... -
Exploring aquatic organism responses to anthropogenically influenced environmental changes through development and utilization of hydroacoustic technology
(Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute, Troy, NY, 2013-05)Anthropogenic perturbations have had dramatic effects on the aquatic ecosystems. Acid deposition dramatically altered the lakes, rivers and streams in the Adirondacks. The most palpable effect was the extirpation of entire ... -
Exploring neuroanatomical and genetic influences on epileptogenesis utilizing the repeated flurothyl model in mice
