  • Ann E. Buchholz, Senior Capstone Seminar The Nipah virus belongs to the family henipaviridae, a class of deadly zoonotic agents, isolated mainly from fruit bats in Asia and Indonesia.

    , the synthesis of these compounds has been drawing attention in order to optimize the production and specialization of the medications. In the past, hydroxyurea synthesis has been achieved by various methods, including the utilization of carbamates, carbamoyl azides, and phosgene pathways, however each of these routes fall short with regard to environmentalism in their procedural approaches. The synthesis of hydroxyureas through mechanisms containing DMDTC (dimethyl dithiocarbamate) as a reactant

    of big concern in the medical field and are both attributed to mutations arising from DNA damage. Mutagenic pathways are relatively well studied, but very little research has been performed to better understand why one form of mutagenesis occurs over another. Saxowsky lab research has suggested that the DNA sequence surrounding a mutation site may impact the type of mutagenesis that occurs. The two mutagenic pathways studied in the Saxowsky lab include replicational and transcriptional

    provided. Mechanisms for necessary referrals and follow-up care will be determined in advance and conducted as appropriate to client needs. Client care documentation will be completed in accord with nursing practice standards. Documentation will be maintained by the faculty member in a manner that ensures the security and confidentiality of client records. Evaluation of effectiveness of the clinical experience will occur in a timely manner with each episode of delivering the clinical experience. Such

When cells are under selective pressure, their growth is often arrested, however some cells will undergo adaptive mutagenesis, a process in which arrested cells develop a mutation that allows them to overcome

    damaged DNA causes errors during transcription. This process can result in a population of mutant transcripts that could ultimately result in an altered cellular phenotype. The cell is equipped with mechanisms to combat such DNA damage. However, if the damage is not repaired before replication it can induce a permanent mutation in the cell’s genome, an event known as replicational mutagenesis. When this occurs the mutation is passed along to every subsequent daughter cell, thus completing the cycle of
