Genome sequence, phylogenetic analysis, and structure-based annotation reveal metabolic potential of Chlorella sp. SLA-04
(Elsevier BV, 2023-01)Algae are a broad class of photosynthetic eukaryotes that are phylogenetically and physiologically diverse. Most of the phylogenetic diversity has been inferred from 18S rDNA sequencing since there are only a few complete ... -
Soluble CD4 and low molecular weight CD4-mimetic compounds sensitize cells to be killed by anti-HIV cytotoxic immunoconjugates
(American Society for Microbiology, 2023-09)The reservoir of HIV-infected cells that persist in the face of effective anti-retroviral therapy (ART) is the barrier to curing HIV infection. These long-lived CD4+ cells carry a functional provirus that can become activated ... -
Development of potent isoflavone-based formyl peptide receptor 1 (FPR1) antagonists and their effects in gastric cancer cell models
(Elsevier BV, 2023-12)Formyl peptide receptor-1 (FPR1) is a G protein-coupled chemoattractant receptor that plays a crucial role in the trafficking of leukocytes into the sites of bacterial infection and inflammation. Recently, FPR1 was shown ... -
Classroom aerosol dispersion modeling: experimental assessment of a low-cost flow simulation tool
(Royal Society of Chemistry, 2023-01)The purpose of this study was to assess the utility of a low-cost flow simulation tool for an indoor air modeling application by comparing its outputs with the results of a physical experiment, as well as those from a more ... -
Effects of de-snaring on the demography and population dynamics of African lions
(Elsevier BV, 2023-10)Lions and other African large carnivores are in decline, due in part to effects of illegal hunting with snares, which can reduce prey availability and directly kill or injure carnivores. It is difficult to effectively ... -
Supporting Employment Transportation in Southern Georgia
(Western Transportation Institute, 2023-10)The Southern Georgia Regional Commission (SGRC) is a regional planning agency that conducts economic development, regional transportation and environmental planning, local government services, aging programs, workforce ... -
Hematoloechus sp. attachment shifts endothelium in vivo from pro- to anti-inflammatory profile in Rana pipiens: evidence from systemic and capillary physiology
(American Physiological Society, 2023-08)This prospective, descriptive study focused on lung flukes (Hematoloechus sp., H) and their impact on systemic and individual capillary variables measured in pithed Rana pipiens, a long-standing model for studies of capillary ... -
Natural and anthropogenic carbon input affect microbial activity in salt marsh sediment
(Frontiers Media SA, 2023-09)Salt marshes are dynamic, highly productive ecosystems positioned at the interface between terrestrial and marine systems. They are exposed to large quantities of both natural and anthropogenic carbon input, and their ... -
Yeast Rad52 is a homodecamer and possesses BRCA2-like bipartite Rad51 binding modes
(Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2023-10)Homologous recombination (HR) is an essential double-stranded DNA break repair pathway. In HR, Rad52 facilitates the formation of Rad51 nucleoprotein filaments on RPA-coated ssDNA. Here, we decipher how Rad52 functions ... -
A DeoR-Type Transcription Regulator Is Required for Sugar-Induced Expression of Type III Secretion-Encoding Genes in Pseudomonas syringae pv. tomato DC3000
(Scientific Societies, 2020-03)The type III secretion system (T3SS) of plant-pathogenic Pseudomonas syringae is essential for virulence. Genes encoding the T3SS are not constitutively expressed and must be induced upon infection. Plant-derived metabolites, ... -
In Search of Simultaneous Benefits of Infrastructure Provisions on Freight & Bicycle Movements
(Western Transportation Institute, 2023-10)The United States has three million miles of rural roadways (U.S. Department of Transportation, Federal Highway Administration, 2000). Some bicyclists enjoy recreating on low-volume rural roadways because they are looking ... -
Public Willingness to Raise Transportation Revenues, Priorities for Transportation Spending, and Preferences for Types of Transportation Revenues: Evidence from Montana’s Billings and Missoula Small Urban Areas
(Western Transportation Institute, 2023-07)This project analyzed public willingness to raise transportation revenues, public priorities for transportation spending, and public preferences for transportation revenue types using recent household travel surveys for ... -
Effectiveness of trauma nurse practitioner-led patient-centered discharge plan: a quality improvement project
(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Nursing, 2023)Trauma Nurse Practitioners (TNPs) in Trauma Centers have been shown to expand the multidisciplinary team approach in caring for that patient population. TNPs create opportunities for increased patient throughput, decreased ... -
Exploration of UHPC applications for Montana bridges
(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Engineering, 2023)The following research project explores bridge applications of ultra-high performance concrete (UHPC). Bridge deterioration is a problem across Montana and UHPC overlays and patching/repairing have been found to be viable ... -
Increasing the PPI deprescribing rate at a transitional care unit
(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Nursing, 2023)Background: PPIs are overprescribed worldwide, especially among geriatric populations. The long-term use of PPIs is associated with many adverse effects. This project aims to utilize deprescribing algorithms to assist ... -
Influence of emotions: how a film score aids audience attention and understanding in documentary film
(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Arts & Architecture, 2023)The music that accompanies documentaries often needs to be more valued and utilized. Although documentaries primarily focus on facts or discoveries, their musical scores, which are often secondary, house the emotional ... -
Increasing primary care providers' adherence with ADA guidelines for annual Urine Albumin-to-Creatinine-Ratio (UACR) screening in diabetic patients

Computationally modeling the aeroelastic physics of flapping-wing flight
(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Engineering, 2023)Flying insects use flapping wings to achieve flight at minuscule sizes. These flapping wings deform elastically under both inertial and aerodynamic loading. While conventional aircraft are often designed to reduce flexibility ... -
Genomic, microbial, and linear relationships between residual feed intake, dry matter intake, average daily gain, and post weaning weights in range sheep
(Montana State University - Bozeman, College of Agriculture, 2023)Over forty years, United States sheep producers have selectively bred range sheep for larger post-weaning weights using estimated breeding values. However, this has led to increased feed intake, prompting this study's ... -
