Meeting the Challenge of Diabetes in China
China’s estimated 114 million people with diabetes pose a massive challenge for China’s health policy-makers who have significantly extended health insurance coverage over the past decade. What China is doing now, what it has achieved, and what remains to be done should be of interest to health policy-makers, worldwide. We identify the challenges posed by China’s two pr...
متن کاملSingle Particle CryoEM of the Anthrax Toxin Initial Engagement Complex
The lethality of anthrax, a zoonotic disease and bioterrorism agent, is due to the anthrax toxin. This tripartitate toxin consists of protective antigen (PA), lethal factor (LF), and edema factor (EF). The 440 kDa heptameric PA prepore binds up to three molecules of LF, a mitogen-activated protein kinase kinase protease, and/or EF, an adenylate cyclase. This entire complex, bound to receptor pr...
متن کاملGridPP: Meeting the Particle Physics Computing Challenge
GridPP is a £33m, 6 year project, funded by PPARC that aims to establish a Grid for UK Particle Physics in time for the turn on of the CERN Large Hadron Collider (LHC) in 2007. In phase 1, the project established a large-scale prototype Grid across the UK. The project has now entered phase 2, and is developing the prototype testbed into a production service. LHC computing technical design repor...
متن کاملFabs enable single particle cryoEM studies of small proteins.
In spite of its recent achievements, the technique of single particle electron cryomicroscopy (cryoEM) has not been widely used to study proteins smaller than 100 kDa, although it is a highly desirable application of this technique. One fundamental limitation is that images of small proteins embedded in vitreous ice do not contain adequate features for accurate image alignment. We describe a ge...
متن کاملAssessing Uncertainties in X-ray Single-particle Three-dimensional reconstructions
Modern technology for producing extremely bright and coherent X-ray laser pulses provides the possibility to acquire a large number of diffraction patterns from individual biological nanoparticles, including proteins, viruses, and DNA. These two-dimensional diffraction patterns can be practically reconstructed and retrieved down to a resolution of a few Ångström. In principle, a sufficiently la...
