Journal Article
Bolt, E. L., Jenkins, T., Russo, V. M., Ahmed, S., Cavey, J., & Cass, S. (2015). Identification of Escherichia coli ygaQ and rpmG as novel mitomycin C resistance factors implicated in DNA repair. Bioscience Reports, https://doi.org/10.1042/BSR20150249

Using the ASKA (A Complete Set of E. coli K-12 ORF Archive) library for genome-wide screening of E. coli proteins we identified that expression of ygaQ and rpmG promotemitomycin C resistance (MMCR). YgaQ mediated MMCR was independent of homolog... Read More about Identification of Escherichia coli ygaQ and rpmG as novel mitomycin C resistance factors implicated in DNA repair.

Sequence and partial functional analysis of canine Bcl-2 family proteins (2015)

Dogs present with spontaneous neoplasms biologically similar to human cancers. Apoptotic pathways are deregulated during cancer genesis and progression and are important for therapy. We have assessed the degree of conservation of a set of canine Bcl-... Read More about Sequence and partial functional analysis of canine Bcl-2 family proteins.

Use of biochemical tests of placental function for improving pregnancy outcome (2015)
Journal Article

BACKGROUND: The placenta has an essential role in determining the outcome of pregnancy. Consequently, biochemical measurement of placentally-derived factors has been suggested as a means to improve fetal and maternal outcome of pregnancy. OBJ...

The feasibility of psychomotor therapy in acute mental health services for adults with intellectual disability (2015)
Journal Article
Kay, J. J., Clegg, J. A., Emck, C., & Standen, P. J. (2016). The feasibility of psychomotor therapy in acute mental health services for adults with intellectual disability. Journal of Intellectual and Developmental Disability, 41(1), 54-60. https://doi.org/10.3109/13668250.2015.1094037

Background. Psychomotor therapy enables people to reflect on the relationship between experiences and feelings by starting from awareness of bodily responses rather than from awareness of emotion. In this study we examine PsyMot (ID), an assessment t... Read More about The feasibility of psychomotor therapy in acute mental health services for adults with intellectual disability.
