Vision: More Than Expected in the Early Visual System
In the standard model of central visual processing, orientation tuned responses in cortex are built from untuned thalamic inputs. But recent studies in the mouse show orientation selectivity in thalamic neurons, and address their potential source and possible roles in cortical computation.
متن کاملDNA-templated synthesis: more versatile than expected.
It has been known for almost twenty years that nucleic acids may promote chemical reactions. Catalytic nucleic acids can be found in nature or evolved through in vitro selection processes.[1] Structural and functional investigations suggest that catalytically active nucleic acids act in a similar manner to enzymes: they promote chemical reactions through the precise spatial alignment of the rea...
متن کاملBuilding Ribosomes: Even More Expensive Than Expected?
Recent quantitative analyses of ribosomal protein trafficking in HeLa cells have revealed a prominent and unexpected role for the proteasome in regulating the availability of ribosomal proteins for subunit assembly.
متن کاملLight - Much More Than Vision
A brief overview of the impact of light on the circadian system is given, which underscores the importance of developing a framework for circadian photometry. The amount of light, its spectral composition, spatial distribution, timing and duration needed for vision is so different from that needed for circadian functioning, that generalizations about “good lighting” will have to be assessed by ...
متن کاملMutation Patterns in the Human Genome: More Variable Than Expected
Primer T he development, survival, and reproduction of an organism depend on the genetic information that is carried in its genome, yet the transmission of genetic information is not perfectly accurate: new mutations occur at each generation. These mutations are the primary cause of the genetic diversity on which natural selection can operate, and hence are the sine qua non of evolution. A bett...
