Although there will be technical hurdles to overco...

Although there have been mixed reviews so far, a success story appears to be emerging (2). In a recently concluded Phase III clinical trial involving patients with advanced colon cancer, Avastin [antivascular endothelial growth factor (VEG...
متن کاملTRAP builds a better translocon
In This Issue In This Issue TRAP builds a better translocon or over a decade, mechanistic studies of protein translocation into the mammalian ER have relied on proteoliposomes with translocons reconstituted from purified components, a system that efficiently translocates simple model proteins like prolactin, but often fails to match in vivo translo-cation efficiency for other substrates. On pag...

متن کاملBuilding a Better Sensor
Advances in technology make it easier for us to save energy and help our environment. One example where technology has a significant role is in occupancy sensors to control lighting, heating and cooling according to motion detected within an intermittently occupied area. Occupancy sensors can save up to 80% of the lighting and HVAC energy when properly applied. Modern sensors, with the aid of l...
