P(450)/NADPH/O(2)- and P(450)/PhIO-catalyzed N-dealkylations are mechanistically distinct
(American Chemical Society, 2005-02-09)A high-valent iron-oxo species analogous to the compound I of peroxidases has been thought to be the activated oxygen species in P450-catalyzed reactions. Spectroscopic characterization of the catalytically competent ... -
PA student assessment of body mass index in children using visual cues
(Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc., 2017-10)Objective: Pediatric weight or body mass index often is underestimated by providers when relying solely upon visual cues. This study sought to determine physician assistant (PA) students' and recent graduates' ability to ... -

Pahhph-5: a mouse mutant deficient in phenylalanine hydroxylase
(PubMed, 1990-03)Mutant mice exhibiting heritable hyperphenylalaninemia have been isolated after ethylnitrosourea mutagenesis of the germ line. We describe one mutant pedigree in which phenylalanine hydroxylase activity is severely deficient ... -
A pair of stationary stochastic processes with application to Wichita temperature data
(Wichita State University, 2010-08)The thesis investigates a pair of stationary stochastic process models whose domains are the set of integers and the set of real numbers respectively. The stationary processes with our specific correlation functions ... -
Palaces of Minoan Crete
(Wichita State University. Department of Anthropology, 2005)Author discusses Minoan palatial forms, their origin, features, and architectural values as the important source of historical and archeological studies. -

Paleoenvironmental interpretation of the bandera shale formation, marmaton group, desmoinesian stage, middle Pennsylvanian in southeastern Kansas.
(Wichita State University. Graduate School, 2009-05-01)In southeastern Kansas and northeastern Oklahoma the Bandera Shale Formation (BSF) (Middle Pennsylvanian) crops out from Linn to Labette Counties in Kansas and in Nowata County, Oklahoma in units ranging from 12 cm to 20 ... -
Palladin and regulation of actin crosslinking and dynamics
(Wiley-Blackwell, 2012-08)Palladin is a recently discovered actin-associated protein that appears to be involved in both normal cell migration and invasive cell motility. Recently, we demonstrated that palladin is able to both bind and bundle actin ... -
Palladin Can Compensate for Arp2/3 Complex Defects and Structurally Organizes Actin-Rich Structures Generated during Listeria monocytogenes Infections
(Federation of American Societies for Experimental Biology, 2017-04)The actin cytoskeleton is co-opted by the invasive and motile bacteria Listeria monocytogenes (Listeria) for their entry, intracellular motility and dissemination from one cell to another. Once inside host cells, these ... -
Palladin compensates for branching complex in promoting actin-based motility in listeria
(Wichita State University, 2019-04-26)Palladin is an actin binding protein which has important functions in cell motility both in normal cells during development or in wound healing and in metastatic cancers. The Beck lab has recently shown that palladin ... -
Palladin compensates for the Arp2/3 complex and supports actin structures during Listeria Infections
(American Society For Microbiology, 2018-04-10)Palladin is an important component of motile actin-rich structures and nucleates branched actin filament arrays in vitro. Here we examine the role of palladin during Listeria monocytogenes infections in order to tease out ... -
Palladin Nucleates Actin Assembly and Regulates Cytoskeleton Architecture
(Elsevier Inc., 2015-01-27)The actin scaffold protein palladin regulates both normal cell migration and invasive cell motility, processes that require the coordinated regulation of actin dynamics. Palladin localizes to actin-rich protrusions and has ... -
Palladin nucleates actin assembly and regulates cytoskeleton architecture
(Wichita State University, 2015-05)Palladin is an actin crosslinking protein that uses an immunoglobulin (Ig) domain to bind F-actin. Expression of palladin correlates with increased cell motility in normal cells during development and wound healing, but ... -
Palladin regulates cancer metastasis via actin cytoskeletal remodeling
(Wichita State University, 2016-04-29)The migration of both normal and cancer cells is a complex process that involves dramatic remodeling of the actin cytoskeleton. Currently 90% of cancer deaths result from metastasis, the migration of cells into the ... -
Palladin's Ig4 Mutation: Exploring the link with pancreatic cancer
(Elsevier Inc., 2015-01-27)Palladin is a recently discovered protein that is expressed in human cells and plays a key role in cytoskeletal dynamics by directly binding and bundling filaments of actin. These processes provide an important function ... -
Paracotalpa ursina species complex revealed: the true biodiversity of the California bear scarabs (Coleoptera: Scarabaeidae)
(Wichita State University, 2014-05)The complex geology of southern California is an important mechanism that drives lineage isolation and promotes high levels of inter- and intraspecific variation. This, in combination with anthropogenic habitat fragmentation, ... -
Paradox and philosophical anticipation in Melville’s Moby-Dick
(Wichita State University, 2006-05)Much of the current critical literature on Moby-Dick lacks a unifying focus. This essay attempts to provide a thread of continuity for Moby-Dick by proving that paradox and Herman Melville’s anticipation of the early ... -
