Limb development: Getting down to the ground state
In 1935, Snodgrass proposed that the evolutionary ground state of arthropod limbs consisted of two segments. Recent genetic studies on the Antennapedia and Homothorax genes of Drosophila raise questions about the nature of this ground state appendage.
متن کاملX Chromosome Inactivation in Opioid Addicted Women
Introduction: X chromosome inactivation (XCI) is a process during which one of the two X chromosomes in female human is silenced leading to equal gene expression with males who have only one X chromosome. Here we have investigated XCI ratio in females with opioid addiction to see whether XCI skewness in women could be a risk factor for opioid addiction. Methods: 30 adult females meeting DS...
متن کاملGetting X Off The Hardware
The X window system is generally implemented by directly inserting hardware manipulation code into the X server. Mode selection and 2D acceleration code are often executed in user mode and directly communicate with the hardware. The current architecture provides for separate 2D and 3D acceleration code, with the 2D code executed within the X server and the 3D code directly executed by the appli...
متن کاملX-chromosome inactivation
It is a well-known fact of popular science that nearly all tortoiseshell cats are female. Underlying this is X-chromosome inactivation, a phenomenon found in all mammals. In the sex-determining system of mammals — in which females carry two X chromosomes and males an X and a Y chromosome — the X chromosome is typically large and carries many genes unconnected with sex, whereas the Y chromosome ...
