    • Carter, Hillary Hager (2009-12-14)
      Department: Cell and Development Biology
      Bves is a transmembrane protein that influences cell migration, motility, and epithelial integrity through previously undefined mechanisms. In this dissertation, I present evidence that identifies the molecular basis for ...
    • Smith, Travis Kirk (2007-04-11)
      Department: Cell and Developmental Biology
      The work contained in this document describes the generation of new immunoreagents for Bves study, and our identification of a Bves-interacting protein. After generating new monoclonal antibodies to the Bves protein, I ...
    • Ripley, Anna Nesset (2004-03-29)
      Department: Cell and Developmental Biology
      I will introduce two novel genes isolated by my laboratory, hole and bves. This document will show that the benefits of gene discovery are invaluable. Bves, a novel family of cell adhesion molecules have been identified ...
    • Osler, Megan Emery (2005-11-01)
      Department: Cell and Developmental Biology
      The work contained in this document provides the first description and characterization of Bves, a gene product identified by our laboratory, in epithelial cell types. Studies addressed a central hypothesis that Bves plays ...
    • Cross, Emily Elizabeth (2012-01-26)
      Department: Cell and Developmental Biology
      Epicardial development is a complex process that involves tightly regulated coordination of concurrent cellular behaviors ranging from sheet migration to secretion. The regulation of these behaviors is poorly understood, ...
