This work describes the development and evaluation of a two-session laboratory class based on Tet-on technology and sex determination in the fruit fly "Drosophila melanogaster." The Tet-on system allows conditional control of gene expression, when doxycycline is applied. A laboratory exercise has been developed to illustrate how the…

Irby, Stefan M.; Pelaez, Nancy J.; Anderson, Trevor R. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2018
Several course-based undergraduate research experiences (CUREs) have been published in the literature. However, only limited attempts have been made to rigorously identify the discovery-type research abilities that students actually develop during such experiences. Instead, there has been a greater focus on technical or procedural-type knowledge…

Mercer, Allison M.; Lewis, Jennifer E.; Sutheimer, Susan; Wolfson, Adele J. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2018
Personal interviews were conducted with biochemistry faculty during which they were presented with student performances on a content survey. From these interviews, four themes that reflect faculty responses to the surveys emerged: awareness of student understanding, self-reflection on teaching practice, planned collaboration with colleagues, and…

Saqib, Abdul A. N.; Siddiqui, Khawar S. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2018
Determination of thermostability of enzymes is of prime importance for their successful industrial applications and, yet, the published data has often been incompletely analyzed to assess the suitability of enzymes. It is possible to determine meaningful thermostability parameters from the routinely acquired data through a straightforward method…

This study was conducted in order to investigate the effects of walking and running exercises over some blood parameters of adult individuals. A total of 20 male volunteers with an age average of 48.05 ± 2.30 were included in the study. An exercise program consisting of regular walking and running exercises for 90 minutes per day in three days of…

Loertscher, Jennifer; Lewis, Jennifer E.; Mercer, Allison M.; Minderhout, Vicky – Chemistry Education Research and Practice, 2018
Most chemistry educators agree that deep understanding of the nature of noncovalent interactions is essential for learning in chemistry. Yet decades of research have shown that students have persistent incorrect ideas about these interactions. We have worked in collaboration with a community of chemistry, biology, and biochemistry educators to…

Lang, Franziska K. – ProQuest LLC, 2018
Research investigating faculty and instructors' perception of teaching in discipline-oriented fields such as biology, chemistry and physics suggest that faculty hold diverse conceptions about teaching and learning. This study extended this work to a discipline at the interface between traditional physical science and life science fields,…

Many neurodevelopmental disorders (NDDs) share common learning and behavioural impairments, as well as features such as dysregulation of the oxytocin hormone. Here, we examined DNA methylation (DNAm) in the 1st intron of the oxytocin receptor gene, "OXTR," in patients with autism spectrum (ASD), attention deficit and hyperactivity (ADHD)…

Dries, Daniel R.; Dean, Diane M.; Listenberger, Laura L.; Novak, Walter R. P.; Franzen, Margaret A.; Craig, Paul A. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2017
A thorough understanding of the molecular biosciences requires the ability to visualize and manipulate molecules in order to interpret results or to generate hypotheses. While many instructors in biochemistry and molecular biology use visual representations, few indicate that they explicitly teach visual literacy. One reason is the need for a list…

Miller, Kathryn; Kim, Thomas – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2017
This study investigates the role of representational competence in student responses to an assessment of hydrogen bonding. The assessment couples the use of a multiple-select item ("Choose all that apply") with an open-ended item to allow for an examination of students' cognitive processes as they relate to the assignment of hydrogen…

Mavor, David Carl – ProQuest LLC, 2017
Ubiquitin is essential for eukaryotic life and varies in only 3 amino acid positions between yeast and humans. However, recent deep sequencing studies indicate that ubiquitin is highly tolerant to single mutations. We hypothesized that this tolerance would be reduced by chemically induced physiologic perturbations. To test this hypothesis, a class…

King, Matthew D.; Phillips, Paul; Turner, Matthew W.; Katz, Michael; Lew, Sarah; Bradburn, Sarah; Andersen, Tim; McDougal, Owen M. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2016
Computational molecular docking is a fast and effective "in silico" method for the analysis of binding between a protein receptor model and a ligand. The visualization and manipulation of protein to ligand binding in three-dimensional space represents a powerful tool in the biochemistry curriculum to enhance student learning. The…

Weers, Paul M. M.; Prenner, Elmar J.; Curic, Spomenka; Lohmeier-Vogel, Elke M. – Biochemistry and Molecular Biology Education, 2016
The laboratory protocol presented here takes about 3 hours to perform and investigates protein and lipid interactions. Students first purify His6-tagged human apolipoprotein A-I (apoA-I) with Ni-NTA affinity resin in a simple batch protocol and prepare multilamellar vesicles (MLV) from pre-dried phospholipid films. When apoA-I is added to the MLV,…

Girardi, Bruna Amanda; Ribeiro, Daniela Aymone; Signor, Cristiane; Muller, Michele; Gais, Mayara Ana; Mello, Carlos Fernando; Rubin, Maribel Antonello – Learning & Memory, 2016
In this study, we determined whether the calcium-dependent protein kinase (PKC) signaling pathway is involved in the improvement of fear memory reconsolidation induced by the intrahippocampal administration of spermidine in rats. Male Wistar rats were trained in a fear conditioning apparatus using a 0.4-mA footshock as an unconditioned stimulus.…

Akkerman, Sven; Blokland, Arjan; Prickaerts, Jos – Learning & Memory, 2016
In previous studies, we have shown that acetylcholinesterase inhibitors and phosphodiesterase inhibitors (PDE-Is) are able to improve object memory by enhancing acquisition processes. On the other hand, only PDE-Is improve consolidation processes. Here we show that the cholinesterase inhibitor donepezil also improves memory performance when…
