The spread of Improving Access to Psychological Therapies (IAPT) services in the National Health Service (NHS) in the UK required a new role called a Psychological Wellbeing Practitioner (PWP). The PWP role was envisioned as a frontline position requ... Read More about Processing people!

An investigation into the function and regulation Of ERG Exon 7b (2018)
Thesis
Jumbe, S. An investigation into the function and regulation Of ERG Exon 7b. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/1494104

The ETS family transcription factor ERG is a key oncoprotein in bone, blood, vascular and most notably prostate cancer where it is activated in at least 50% of cases. Of the several splice isoforms of ERG with variable biological activity those that... Read More about An investigation into the function and regulation Of ERG Exon 7b.

Bacterial processing of fluorescent organic matter in freshwater (2018)
Thesis
Fox, B. Bacterial processing of fluorescent organic matter in freshwater. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/863820

Organic matter (OM) is ubiquitous to all aquatic environments and plays an essential role in global biogeochemical cycles and transportation of organic carbon throughout the hydrological continuum. Excitation-emission matrix (EEM) fluorescence spectr... Read More about Bacterial processing of fluorescent organic matter in freshwater.

The isolation and characterisation of Proteus mirabilis bacteriophages and their effect on the colonisation and blockage of urinary catheters (2018)
Thesis
Thompson, R. The isolation and characterisation of Proteus mirabilis bacteriophages and their effect on the colonisation and blockage of urinary catheters. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/866010

Catheter associated urinary tract infection seriously complicates the care of an already vulnerable patient set and has been estimated to cost the UK National Health Service in excess of one billion pounds per annum. Approximately 50 % of patients ca... Read More about The isolation and characterisation of Proteus mirabilis bacteriophages and their effect on the colonisation and blockage of urinary catheters.

Biodiversity and ecosystem function in the bird's nest fern (2018)
Thesis
Donald, J. D. Biodiversity and ecosystem function in the bird's nest fern. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/866762

Understanding the relationship between the biodiversity and functioning of an ecosystem is a key component of ecological studies. Given the importance of soil as the basis for life on earth, understanding this relationship across the multiple trophic...

The development of molecular assays for the detection and identification of inherited disorders of haemoglobin in a highly heterogeneous population (2018)
Thesis
Turner, A. The development of molecular assays for the detection and identification of inherited disorders of haemoglobin in a highly heterogeneous population. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/876211

Inherited disorders of haemoglobin are the most common monogenic diseases in the world. These conditions arise as a result of deletions or point mutations affecting the globin genes. Gap polymerase chain reaction (Gap-PCR) is commonly used to detect...

Interaction of nitric oxide with auxin and ethylene signalling in Arabidopsis root gravitropism (2017)
Thesis
Vembu, K. Interaction of nitric oxide with auxin and ethylene signalling in Arabidopsis root gravitropism. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/877297

Gravitropism is required for the appropriate alignment of the plant root and shoot. According to the Cholodny-Went hypothesis, gravity induces asymmetric accumulation of auxin in the lower side of the root tissue. More recent studies on root gravitro...

Quantum pathogen evolution by integron-mediated effector capture (2017)
Thesis
Payne, J. D. Quantum pathogen evolution by integron-mediated effector capture. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/877432

Plant pathogenic Pseudomonads are responsible for the loss of millions of pounds in crop revenue each year. They export effector molecules via the type three secretion system into the plants’ cells in order to elicit disease. If the plant has the cor...

Targeting splice factor kinases and their splice factor in chronic myeloid leukaemia (2017)
Thesis
Alabouh, H. Targeting splice factor kinases and their splice factor in chronic myeloid leukaemia. (Thesis). University of the West of England. Retrieved from https://uwe-repository.worktribe.com/output/879470

Alternative splicing of pre-mRNA is a ubiquitous and versatile mechanism controlling the expression of human genes. In humans, approximately 93% of multi-exonic genes are alternatively spliced, producing functionally distinct proteins. Dysregulation...
