Pyrosequencing sheds light on DNA sequencing.
DNA sequencing is one of the most important platforms for the study of biological systems today. Sequence determination is most commonly performed using dideoxy chain termination technology. Recently, pyrosequencing has emerged as a new sequencing methodology. This technique is a widely applicable, alternative technology for the detailed characterization of nucleic acids. Pyrosequencing has the...
متن کاملThe worm sheds light on anesthetic mechanisms
One hundred and sixty five years have passed since the first documented use of volatile anesthetics to aid in surgery, but we have yet to understand the underlying mechanism of action of these drugs. There is no question that, in vitro, volatile anesthetics can affect the function of numerous neuronal and non-neuronal proteins. In fact, volatile anesthetics are capable of binding such diverse p...
متن کاملBEAMing sheds light on drug resistance.
Targeted therapies against somatically altered genes are currently used for the treatment of many human cancers. The nascent technology known as BEAMing has the potential to increase the clinical utility of these agents because it allows for the detection of cancer mutations in peripheral blood, providing a rapid assessment of tumor mutation status.
متن کاملILLUMINATE sheds more light.
If one could design a metabolic intervention to prevent incident or recurrent cardiovascular events, it might look a lot like torcetrapib. Torcetrapib is the first cholesteryl ester transfer protein (CETP) inhibitor extensively studied in humans. Torcetrapib, in addition to statin therapy, raised high-density lipoprotein (HDL) by 70%, lowered low-density lipoprotein by 25%, and lowered triglyce...
متن کاملCircadian Control Sheds Light on Fungal Bioluminescence
Bioluminescence, the creation and emission of light by organisms, affords insight into the lives of organisms doing it. Luminous living things are widespread and access diverse mechanisms to generate and control luminescence [1-5]. Among the least studied bioluminescent organisms are phylogenetically rare fungi-only 71 species, all within the ∼ 9,000 fungi of the temperate and tropical Agarical...
