  • mRNA stability in soma and neurites of cultured neuronal cells 
    Srinath, Chetan (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)
    Neurons rely on mRNA localization and local protein synthesis in neurites to regulate synaptic plasticity, axonogenesis and neural signaling. The local regulation of mRNA stability in neurites is poorly understood. To ...
  • Genetic screens in vivo using the CRISPR/Cas9 system 
    Ellis, Donald Christian (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)
    An unmet and paramount need in the field of cancer research is to rapidly translate basic biological findings to clinically relevant therapeutics for cancer patients. Recent technological advances have generated many ...
  • Generating single-domain antibodies against fibronectin splice variants 
    Peterson, Alexis W (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)
    Here, I describe the process of generating single-domain antibodies which bind to splice variants of fibronectin containing EIIIA or EIIIB. Alpacas were immunized with either purified antigen cocktails, or from the ECM of ...
  • teashirt is required for head-versus-tail regeneration polarity in planarians 
    Owen, Jared H. (Jared Huntsman) (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2017)
    Regeneration requires that the identities of new cells are properly specified to replace missing tissues. The Wnt signaling pathway serves a central role in specifying posterior cell fates during planarian regeneration. ...
  • Conformation and dynamics of the mammalian chromosome 
    Zhang, Lyndon N. (Lyndon Nuoxi) (Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 2016)
    The control of transcription represents a fundamental, initial mechanism by which the regulation of gene expression is implemented. However, while much research has been done on the biochemistry and cellular function of ...
