Whole genome comparison of a large collection of mycobacteriophages reveals a continuum of phage genetic diversity
Published in eLife, 2015
Abstract: The bacteriophage population is large, dynamic, ancient, and genetically diverse. Limited genomic information shows that phage genomes… Read more
Genome-wide use of high- and low- affinity Tbrain transcription factor binding sites during echinoderm development
Published in PNAS, 2017
Abstract: Sea stars and sea urchins are model systems for interrogating the types of deep evolutionary changes that have restructured developmental gene… Read more
CRISPR-Cas9 Mutated Pregnane X Receptor (pxr) Retains Pregnenolone-induced Expression of cyp3a65 in Zebrafish (Danio rerio) Larvae
Published in Toxicological Sciences, 2019
Abstract: Pregnane X receptor (PXR; NR1I2) is a nuclear receptor that regulates transcriptional responses to drug or xenobiotic exposure, including… Read more
Exploring the Use of Environmental DNA (eDNA) to Detect Animal Taxa in the Mesopelagic Zone
Published in Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021
Abstract: Animal biodiversity in the ocean’s vast mesopelagic zone is relatively poorly studied due to technological and logistical challenges. Environmental… Read more
Improved biodiversity detection using a large-volume environmental DNA sampler with in situ filtration and implications for marine eDNA sampling strategies
Published in Deep Sea Research Part 1, 2022
Abstract: Metabarcoding analysis of environmental DNA samples is a promising new tool for marine biodiversity and conservation. Typically, seawater samples are obtained using Niskin bottles… Read more
