متن کاملWatching proteases in action.
encoding proteases within any genome are easily identified, and three-dimensional structures of many proteases have been solved. Most proteolytic cleavage mechanisms and pro-tease substrate specificities have been established (the latter in some detail) 1. We are also able to block proteolytic activities with potent inhibi-tors. Transgenic approaches have been used for targeted deletions of pro...
متن کاملWatching single molecules in action
A fluorescent imaging technique called fastFISH has been used to track the various steps involved in the transcription of a single DNA molecule.
متن کاملWatching the Brain Comprehend Discourse
When the first author (Morton Ann Gernsbacher) was in graduate school, she once sat in on an undergraduate entry-level cognition course to see how one of the department’s best teachers conveyed the excitement and exquisiteness of cognitive psychology to an audience of 19-year-olds. This professor began the first day by posing the following challenge: Imagine that you were sent to some faraway p...
متن کاملWatching the Fly Brain Learn
The peptidergic dorsal paired medial (DPM) neurons, which innervate the mushroom bodies in Drosophila, have been widely hypothesized to be part of the unconditioned stimulus (US) pathway of odor-shock classical conditioning. In the December 2 issue of Cell, Yu et al., using functional imaging techniques, report the surprising finding that DPMs contain odor-specific memory traces and send integr...
