Evolutionary Consequences of Altered Atmospheric Oxygen in <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em> by Marc Charette (198776)

“…<div><p>Twelve replicate populations of <em>Drosophila melanogaster</em>, all derived from a common ancestor, were independently evolved for 34+ generations in one of three treatment environments of varying PO₂: hypoxia (5.0–10.1 kPa), normoxia (21.3 kPa), and hyperoxia (40.5 kPa). …”

Model for simultaneous analysis of structural damage and repair as well as copy number change in stressed cells using real-time PCR by Jinsong Chen (25538)

“…</p> () Real-time PCR allows sensitive detection of relaxed (open circular/linear) or total mtDNA when all supercoiled DNA is converted into the relaxed forms using a heat-denaturation step. The ratio between relaxed and total mtDNA indicates the baseline levels of structural damage, while the quantitative differences between total and relaxed mtDNA represents the fraction of supercoiled DNA. () Induced structural damage and its subsequent repair can be detected by the increase or decrease of the relaxed fraction of mtDNA when total mtDNA content remains the same (I). …”

Out of Plane Distortions of the Heme <em>b</em> of <em>Escherichia coli</em> Succinate Dehydrogenase by Quang M. Tran (180372)

“…To examine whether heme reduction is an essential step of the catalytic mechanism, we generated a series of site-directed mutations around the heme binding pocket, creating a library of variants with a stepwise decrease in the midpoint potential of the heme from the wild-type value of +20 mV down to −80 mV. …”

Initiation of Methylglucose Lipopolysaccharide Biosynthesis in Mycobacteria by Devinder Kaur (264278)

Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) of microwave lysed <i>V</i>. <i>cholerae</i> and <i>L</i>. <i>monocytogenes</i> with and without Lyse-It^®. by Tonya M. Santaus (5559077)

“…<i>monocytogenes</i> microwave irradiated for varying powers for 60 seconds and <b>(D)</b> microwaved at 50% power for varying times. It is clear that when Lyse-It^® is used, there is a decrease in the overall cellular size indicating that cellular lysis is occurring and is more efficient with Lyse-It^® as compared to standard microwave heating.…”
