Identification of the lz5 Suppressor of pam-1 in Caenorhabditis elegans
Emily M Schleicher
Jan 01, 0001
In C. elegans early embryonic development, the anterior-posterior axis is established. This establishment is created by the sperm-donated centrosome contacting the posterior cortex of the cell, causing a series of events to...

Locus Determination and Delineation of Suppressors of pam-1 in C. elegans
Zana Lee
Jan 01, 0001
In order for the single celled embryo of C. elegans to develop, they need to have a proper anterior-posterior axis development. A gene that plays an important role in that development is pam-1 which codes for the puromycin...

Photorhabdus adhesion modification protein (Pam) binds extracellular polysaccharide and alters bacterial attachment

Background: Photorhabdus are Gram-negative nematode-symbiotic and insect-pathogenic bacteria. The species Photorhabdus asymbiotica is able to infect humans as well as insects. We investigated the secreted proteome of a...

Identification and Characterization of pam-1 Suppressor lz4
Timothy J. Litz
Jan 01, 0001
Cell polarization is responsible for proper cell function, axis formation, and viability. In the single-cell Caenorhabditis elegans, anteroposterior polarity is triggered by the sperm donated centrosome contacting the posterior...

The Role of MBK-2 and CDK-1 in Oocytes and Early Embryos of pam-1 Mutant C. elegans
Alexa R Alessandrini
Jan 01, 0001
The puromycin-sensitive aminopeptidase, PAM-1, is needed for meiotic exit and anteroposterior axis formation in early Caenorhabditis elegans embryos. PAM-1 is also involved in oocyte maturation and the oocyte-to-embryo...

Investigating Interactions Between PAM-1 and the Maturation Promoting Factor in Cell Cycle Regulation in Caenorhabditis elegans
Nareen Babaian
Jan 01, 0001
To develop into mature organisms, fertilized embryos must go through phases of growth, DNA replication, and cell division. The phases together make up the cell cycle, and movement through these phases is facilitated by many...

Identification of the lz5 Suppressor of pam-1 in C. elegans
Robin Alsher
Jan 01, 0001
Polarity establishment is an essential process in C. elegans embryonic development, and occurs prior to the first cell division. This process is initiated when the sperm-donated centrosome makes contact and triggers changes in...
