Journal Article
Harrison, B., Kraus, M., Burch, L., Stevens, C., Craig, A., Gordon-Weeks, P., & Hupp, T. R. (2008). DAPK-1 Bbnding to a linear peptide motif in MAP1B stimulates autophagy and membrane blebbing. Journal of Biological Chemistry, 283(15), 9999-10014. https://doi.org/10.1074/jbc.M706040200

DAPK-1 (death-activated protein kinase) has wide ranging functions in cell growth control; however, DAPK-1 interacting proteins that mediate these effects are not well defined. Protein-protein interactions are driven in part by linear interaction mot... Read More about DAPK-1 Bbnding to a linear peptide motif in MAP1B stimulates autophagy and membrane blebbing.

Influence of species richness and environmental context on early survival of replanted mangroves at Gazi bay, Kenya (2008)
Journal Article
Kirui, B. Y. K., Huxham, M., Kairo, J., & Skov, M. (2008). Influence of species richness and environmental context on early survival of replanted mangroves at Gazi bay, Kenya. Hydrobiologia, 603(1), 171-181. https://doi.org/10.1007/s10750-007-9270-3

Mangrove reforestation projects often suffer from low sapling survival, especially after transplanting saplings from nurseries to reforestation areas. This may be due to the sediment conditions at the target site, the planting strategy or failure to...

As more children are diagnosed at a younger age with Autism Spectrum Disorders (ASD), a new population of families is growing requiring services. Little is known about their characteristics and need for support. Instead, past research has tended to f...

Tourism is frequently acclaimed as one of the world's largest and most pervasive industries. Research into tourism has grown rapidly in recent years with many new books and journals appearing. In particular, this article notes that perhaps three new... Read More about Tourism Geographies, Tourist Studies and the Turn towards Mobilities.

The influence of the extensional viscosity of very low concentrations of high molecular mass water-soluble polymers on atomisation and droplet impact (2008)
Journal Article
