Chromatin -- Structure. DNA -- Methylation. Globin genes -- Expression. Adenosine triphosphatase. Proteins -- Chemical modification.
Epigenetic regulation of gene expression is a developing field of study with many potential therapeutic applications. Chromatin remodeling is necessary for proper mammalian development, and misregulation of this process is associated with many...
Cyclic diguanylate (c-di-GMP) is a primarily bacterial and nearly universal second messenger used to stimulate a variety of responses from the cell by binding effector proteins. It is created by enzymes called diguanylate cyclases (DGCs) and broken...
Free radicals (Chemistry). ; Electron donor-acceptor complexes. ; Ions.
In this study, the initial charge separation distance and its impact on free radical ion (FRI) formation are investigated in detail. Transient photocurrent techniques together with other spectroscopic methods were used with a series of donors and...
Chapter one: Synthesis, resolution and application of P-chirogenic phosphines. This chapter serves as a general introduction, and gives a brief overview of the synthesis, resolution and applications of chiral organophosphorus compounds. In...
Chapter 1: The dimethylation of the C2-symmetric Pt-phosphido complex Pt((R,R)-Me-DuPhos)(IsPCH2PIs) (Is = 2,4,6-(iPr)3C6H2) to yield rac- and meso- [Pt((R,R)-Me-DuPhos)(IsMePCH2PMeIs)][OTf]2 represents an interesting case of the Horeau principle...
We pose several adversarial variants of the multi-armed bandit scenario and propose new approaches for their play and analysis. Our casino patron seeks to discover information about an unknown system as a means to long-term payoff -- exploration...
This dissertation details the use of a new catalog of Galactic bulge field RR Lyrae variables to advance the understanding of the structure of the Milky Way Galaxy. The catalog contains 3667 RR0 Lyrae stars from the eight-year MACHO Project...
