Towards the Development of Transgenic Reporter Lines for Assessing and Characterizing a LAC-Regulated UAS-GAL4 System
(2015-05-20)
I designed and prepared the components of an inducible gene expression system based on the mouse lac system to address limitations in conventional Drosophila melanogaster inducible gene expression systems that preclude ...
Pyp3 Involvement in Mitotic Control and Cell Growth in Fission Yeast
(2016-04-07)
In fission yeast, Schizosaccharomyces pombe, tyrosine dephosphorylation of p34cdc2 is required for mitotic initiation and this reversible tyrosine phosphorylation plays a crucial role in the regulation of the cell cycle. ...
Characterization of the fhod-2 gene in Caenorhabditis elegans
(2011-06-20)
Formins are a family of proteins responsible for a vast array of cellular functions such as cell shape, adhesion, cytokinesis and morphogenesis. Formin regulation of actin is a highly regulated process and is conserved ...
Fish Distributions in Lake Ontario's Eastern Basin and the Upper St. Lawrence River: An Analysis Using GIS and Occupancy Modelling Techniques
Predictive models of species distributions are important tools for fisheries management. Unfortunately, these predictive models can be difficult to perform on large waterbodies where fish are difficult to detect and ...
The Effect Manipulating AMPK Activity has on Ouabain-Induced Spreading Depression in Fed and Starved Locusta Migratoria.
(2015-10-03)
Neurons, though highly metabolically active, have a poor capacity for nutrient storage and are sensitive to energy fluctuations. One mechanism for maintaining energetic homeostasis involves activation of the heterotrimeric ...
Functional Analysis of Human Eph Receptor Homologs Using C. elegans as a Model
(2011-07-05)
The Eph receptor tyrosine kinases are a highly conserved family of proteins involved in a variety of developmental processes. As well, the Eph receptors appear to play a pivotal role in the development and progression of ...
