Nucleic acid-programmed assemblies: translating instruction into function in chemical biology.
The predictability of nucleic acid hybridization offers an attractive platform to program the assembly of tagged ligands or reactants. Hybridization can be used to display multiple ligands in order to gain affinity and/or selectivity through the cooperative interaction of each ligand. Additionally, hybridization of tagged reagents increases their effective concentration and accelerates reaction...
متن کاملChemical allergy: translating biology into hazard characterization.
The induction by chemicals of allergic sensitization and allergic disease is an important and challenging branch of toxicology. Skin sensitization resulting in allergic contact dermatitis represents the most common manifestation of immunotoxicity in humans, and many hundreds of chemicals have been implicated as skin sensitizers. There are far fewer chemicals that have been shown to cause sensit...
متن کاملNucleic Acid Templated Reactions for Chemical Biology
Nucleic acid directed bioorthogonal reactions offer the fascinating opportunity to unveil and redirect a plethora of intracellular mechanisms. Nano- to picomolar amounts of specific RNA molecules serve as templates and catalyze the selective formation of molecules that 1) exert biological effects, or 2) provide measurable signals for RNA detection. Turnover of reactants on the template is a val...
متن کاملTranslating data into meaning: education in conservation biology.
Most scientists recognize that species are disappearing at an alarming rate, and many disappear before we can even name them, let alone understand their evolutionary history or role in their ecosystems. The reason for biodiversity losses is largely anthropogenic. As a response to this crisis, professional biologists founded the Society for Conservation Biology (SCB) in 1987 (Soulé 1987). One of...
متن کاملFoundations of Programmed Instruction
One can gain appreciable insights to the present day status of the field of instructional technology (IT) from examining its early beginnings and the origins of current practice. Programmed Instruction (PI) was an integral factor in the evolution of the instructional design process, and serves as the foundation for the procedures in which IT professionals now engage for the development of effec...
