Mammalian reproductive tract mucins.
Mucin glycoproteins are major constituents of the glycocalyx that covers mucosal epithelium. Two broad classes of mucins exist: membrane-associated and secretory. Of the secreted mucins, those with cysteine-rich regions are thought to polymerize through disulphide bonds. Among these gel-forming mucins are MUC2, MUC5AC, MUC5B and possibly MUC6. MUC7 lacks cysteine-rich domains and is thought to ...
متن کاملMammalian Olfaction, Reproductive
Although for many animals olfactive perceptions must be the most important source of information about the state of their environment, we know relatively little about this chemoreceptive sensory system. The fact that our own sense of smell is comparatively rudimentary has certainly contributed to the relative lack of attention that olfactory behaviour and physiology have received. Our smelling ...
متن کاملScrutinizing the epigenetics revolution
Epigenetics is one of the most rapidly expanding fields in the life sciences. Its rise is frequently framed as a revolutionary turn that heralds a new epoch both for gene-based epistemology and for the wider discourse on life that pervades knowledge-intensive societies of the molecular age. The fundamentals of this revolution remain however to be scrutinized, and indeed the very contours of wha...
متن کاملScrutinizing and Writing Abstracts
A (On the Translation of Languages from Left to Right) There has been much recent interest in languages whose grammar is sufficiently simple that an efficient left-to-right parsing algorithm can be mechanically produced from the grammar. In this paper, we define LR(k) grammars, which are perhaps the most general ones of this type, and they provide the basis for understanding all of the special ...
متن کاملSeeing, sensing, and scrutinizing
Large changes in a scene often become difficult to notice if made during an eye movement, image flicker, movie cut, or other such disturbance. It is argued here that this change blindness can serve as a useful tool to explore various aspects of vision. This argument centers around the proposal that focused attention is needed for the explicit perception of change. Given this, the study of chang...
