R. A. Paggi; M. C. Ferrari; M. Cerletti; M. I. Giménez; T. S. Schwarz; A. Marchfelder; R. E. De Castro – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2025
Perturbation of gene expression using RNA interference (RNAi) or CRISPR interference (CRISPRi) is a useful strategy to explore the function of essential genes. In the archaeon "Haloferax volcanii," the CRISPR-Cas system has been adapted as a CRISPRi tool to silence the expression of specific genes. We developed a laboratory class (LC) to…

Paye, Ciana L.; Dunnagan, Cathi L.; Tredwell, David A.; Gallardo-Williams, Maria T. – Journal of Chemical Education, 2021
Lewis structures are a very important, foundational concept in chemistry. Students usually acquire this knowledge in General Chemistry and need to review it in preparation for Organic Chemistry. However, many students find the task of drawing Lewis structures to be challenging, and not all instructors can budget enough time in class to review this…
