Mutualists endow certain appetites
SCIENCE sciencemag.org However, mechanisms are also needed to block expression of genes that specify other cell lineages. Kim et al. identified such a mechanism in the Drosophila male germ line. A multiple–zinc finger protein and a chromatin remodeler were found to act together to block transcription from cryptic promoters. These factors prevented aberrant gene expression and enabled proper dif...
متن کاملTaste Processing: Whetting our appetites
Two G-protein-coupled receptors have been identified that are present in the apical membranes of rat and mouse taste cells and differentially distributed across the tongue and palate. They are strong candidates for being taste receptors and their discovery has provided new tools for research into gustatory processing.
متن کاملHypothesis: bacteria control host appetites.
To help investigate the relationship between inflammatory and other diseases and the composition of the gut microbiota, we propose that a positive-feedback loop exists between the preferences of the host for a particular dietary regimen, the composition of the gut microbiota that depends on this regimen, and the preferences of the host as influenced by the gut microbiota. We cite evidence in su...
متن کاملAnts as Mutualists
The historical emphasis on the ecological and evolutionary importance of antagonistic interactions such as competition, predation, and parasitism is increasingly informed by a recognition of facilitative and mutualistic interactions where one or both participants receive a net benefit (Bertness and Callaway 1994; Bruno et al. 2003; Grosholz 2005; Stachowicz 2001). Interactions between ants and ...
متن کاملAzatryptophans endow proteins with intrinsic blue fluorescence.
Our long-term goal is the in vivo expression of intrinsically colored proteins without the need for further posttranslational modification or chemical functionalization by externally added reagents. Biocompatible (Aza)Indoles (Inds)/(Aza)Tryptophans (Trp) as optical probes represent almost ideal isosteric substitutes for natural Trp in cellular proteins. To overcome the limits of the traditiona...
