Bacterial CRISPR: accomplishments and prospects.
In this review we briefly describe the development of CRISPR tools for genome editing and control of transcription in bacteria. We focus on the Type II CRISPR/Cas9 system, provide specific examples for use of the system, and highlight the advantages and disadvantages of CRISPR versus other techniques. We suggest potential strategies for combining CRISPR tools with high-throughput approaches to ...
متن کاملNutritional epidemiology of cancer: accomplishments and prospects.
Nutritional epidemiology of cancer has gone through several stages. Initially, the long latency of cancer, the difficulties in undertaking long-term cohort investigations or ascertaining remote diet in case-control studies, and the absence of convenient intermediate biomarkers of disease, such as cholesterol in cardiovascular diseases, discouraged studies on diet and cancer. Subsequently, howev...
متن کاملCultural Evolution: Accomplishments and Future Prospects
Edward Wilson (1998) recently popularized William Whewell’s nineteenth-century idea of “consilience.” The idea was a favorite of Darwin’s. It holds that seemingly disparate phenomena in the world are in fact connected. Nuclear physics is “remote” scientifically from the social sciences, yet nuclear reactions in the sun are the most important source of energy on earth, nuclear decay in the earth...
متن کاملCRISPR-Cas9: Prospects and Challenges.
All science takes inspiration from nature, but nowhere is this more true than in biology, where some of the most powerful tools available to researchers are derived from natural products. From restriction enzymes and fluorescent proteins to microbial opsins and viral gene delivery vectors, researchers have capitalized on processes that occur in a variety of microbial, plant, and animal species....
متن کاملPlanning Problems in Intermodal Freight Transport: Accomplishments and Prospects
Intermodal freight transport has received an increased attention due to problems of road congestion, environmental concerns and traffic safety. A growing recognition of the strategic importance of speed and agility in the supply chain is forcing firms to reconsider traditional logistic services. As a consequence, research interest in intermodal freight transportation problems is growing. This p...
