From STEM to STEAM: Strategies for enhancing engineering & technology education

A Connor, S Karmokar, C Whittington - 2015 - learntechlib.org
This paper sets out to challenge the common pedagogies found in STEM (Science, Technology,
Engineering and Mathematics) education with a particular focus on engineering. The …

Mutagenesis, hydrogen–deuterium exchange, and molecular docking investigations establish the dimeric interface of human platelet-type 12-lipoxygenase

WC Tsai, AM Aleem, C Whittington, WA Cortopassi… - Biochemistry, 2021 - ACS Publications
It was previously shown that human platelet 12S-lipoxygenase (h12-LOX) exists as a dimer;
however, the specific structure is unknown. In this study, we create a model of the dimer …
