Masters ThesisHabibi, AniaTransmembrane (TMEM)-176A and -176B proteins have been reported to play a role in human immune cell function. Similarity in structure, high homology, and a close genetic relationship enable the two proteins to physically come together to form heterome . . .

ArticleRamirez, Maria SoledadAcinetobacter baumannii is a multidrug resistant nosocomial pathogen that shows an outstanding ability to undergo genetic exchange, thereby acquiring different traits that contribute to its success. In this work, we identified genetic features of an i . . .

ArticlePaig-Tran, ErinSolid-liquid filtration is a ubiquitous process found in industrial and biological systems. Although implementations vary widely, almost all filtration systems are based on a small set of fundamental separation mechanisms, including sieve, cross-flow, . . . -
ArticleZacherl, DanielleWorldwide, artificially armored shorelines can dominate available estuarine habitat. Increases in artificial substrata in southern California, USA, coincide with increased abundances of nonindigenous species. The US west coast Olympia oyster, Ostrea l . . .

ArticleSchenk, H. JochenPremise of the Study Xylem sap in angiosperms moves under negative pressure in conduits and cell wall pores that are nanometers to micrometers in diameter, so sap is always very close to surfaces. Surfaces matter for water transport because hydrophob . . .

ArticleSchenk, H. JochenVascular plants transport water under negative pressure without constantly creating gas bubbles that would disable their hydraulic systems. Attempts to replicate this feat in artificial systems almost invariably result in bubble formation, except unde . . .
