Cover Picture: Detection of mRNA in Mammalian Cells with a Split Ribozyme Reporter (ChemBioChem 6/2006)

The cover picture shows a split RNA reporter strategy for detecting target mRNA in mammalian cells. A tetrahymena group I intron ribozyme reporter is split into two halves, each of which carries a part of the coding sequence of the reporter mRNA, a fragment of the ribozyme, and an antisense sequence complementary to a target mRNA. Both halves bind with the target mRNA and are assembled into an ...

on the relationship between using discourse markers and the quality of expository and argumentative academic writing of iranian english majors

the aim of the present study was to investigate the frequency and the type of discourse markers used in the argumentative and expository writings of iranian efl learners and the differences between these text features in the two essay genres. the study also aimed at examining the influence of the use of discourse markers on the participants’ writing quality. to this end the discourse markers us...

Miniaturizing VEGF: Peptides mimicking the discontinuous VEGF receptor-binding site modulate the angiogenic response

The angiogenic properties of VEGF are mediated through the binding of VEGF to its receptor VEGFR2. The VEGF/VEGFR interface is constituted by a discontinuous binding region distributed on both VEGF monomers. We attempted to reproduce this discontinuous binding site by covalently linking into a single molecular entity two VEGF segments involved in receptor recognition. We designed and synthesize...
