A pair of ACEs, for openers?
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has provided bountiful material for investigation by basic scientists and clinicians for more than 100 years. Renin, first identified in 1898 as a pressor substance present in kidney extracts,1 sits at the top of an enzymatic cascade that, in its simplest form, is now broadly known: renin cleaves the circulating precursor, angiotensinogen, to release the inact...
متن کاملPD-loop technology: PNA openers at work.
A concise survey of the emerging PD-loop technology is presented, which outlines several exemplary methods with robust DNA diagnostic potential: duplex DNA capture, topological DNA labeling, nondenaturing DNA sequencing and hybridization of molecular beacons to double-stranded DNA. Advantages of these new PNA-based assays over existing techniques for sequence-specific detection and manipulation...
متن کاملBuilt to evolve
We study the probabilities of evolution based on random mutations and natural selection. We conclude that evolution to multicellular eukaryots, or even prokaryots, is unlikely to be the result of only random mutations. Complex organisms have evolved through several mechanisms besides random mutations, namely DNA recombination, adaptive mutations, and acquisition of foreign DNA. We conclude that...
متن کاملHow Communities Evolve
In Ecology, there is active debate about the nature of changes in large-scale biological systems, such as communities or even the whole ecosystem. The question is, are changes in communities the simply result of the replacement and evolution of its species? Or on the contrary, community change as a body. According to Niles Eldredge (1996), who has been working with these questions during the la...
متن کاملHow Did T3S Evolve?
The injectisome has a common evolutionary origin with the bacterial flagellum, as suggested by the fact that the basal bodies of both nanomachines are similar and include many proteins with a significant similarity. Moreover, there are also functional similarities, such as the use of specific chaperones (5, 45, 104, 108, 138) or of molecular systems regulating the size of the external appendage...
