Presenilin: Running with Scissors in the Membrane
The presenilin-containing gamma-secretase complex is an unusual membrane-embedded protease that processes a wide variety of integral membrane proteins, clearing protein stubs from the lipid bilayer and participating in critical signaling pathways. The protease is also central to Alzheimer's disease and certain cancers and is therefore an important therapeutic target. Here we highlight recent pr...
متن کاملRunning with scissors: using antiretroviral therapy without monitoring viral load.
" As viral loads are not normally available in resource-limited settings it is recommended that programmes primarily use clinical, and, where possible, CD4 count criteria, in order to define treatment failure , " the World Health Organization stated in 2004 [1]. As antiretroviral therapy is rolled out to resource-limited settings , will clinicians remember what has been learned? In the beginnin...
متن کاملRunning with scissors: Fast queries on just-in-time databases
The amount of data collected in the last two years is higher than the amount of data collected since the dawn of time. Businesses are drowning in data, and need several months of ETL processing to barely prepare them for querying. Domain scientists collect data much faster than they can be transformed into valuable information and are often forced into hasty decisions on which parts to discard,...
متن کاملRunning with Scissors: Cut-Ups, Boundary Friction and Creative Reuse
Our experience of past problems can offer valuable insights into the solution of current problems, though since novel problems are not merely re-occurrences of those we have seen before, their solutions require us to integrate multiple sources of inspiration into a single, composite whole. The degree to which the seams of these patchwork solutions are evident to an end-user offers an inverse me...
متن کاملCRISPR/CAS9 Technology: A Revolutionary Molecular Scissors for Genome Editing and Genetic Research
Targeted gene modifications to animals’ especially mammalian genomes are central to understand the role of the gene in development, physiology, and different disease conditions. Functional elucidations of a gene or genetic variants require precise editing technologies. In conventional gene targeting methods, mutations of the gene or gene has been introduced into the genome by homologous recombi...
