Highly Dynamic Exon Shuffling in Candidate Pathogen Receptors … What if Brown Algae Were Capable of Adaptive Immunity?
Pathogen recognition is the first step of immune reactions. In animals and plants, direct or indirect pathogen recognition is often mediated by a wealth of fast-evolving receptors, many of which contain ligand-binding and signal transduction domains, such as leucine-rich or tetratricopeptide repeat (LRR/TPR) and NB-ARC domains, respectively. In order to identify candidates potentially involved ...
متن کاملWhat if Chomsky were right?
The outcome of scientific research depends on how a phenomenon is viewed and how the questions are phrased. This applies also to the nativist view of language acquisition. As a complement to MacWhinney’s discussion of nativism from the viewpoint of cognitive psychology, I would like to devote this commentary to the question of the title from the viewpoint of computational linguistics. Formally,...
متن کاملWhat if entropy were dimensionless?
One of entropy’s puzzling aspects is its dimensions of energy/temperature. A review of thermodynamics and statistical mechanics leads to six conclusions: ~1! Entropy’s dimensions are linked to the definition of the Kelvin temperature scale. ~2! Entropy can be defined to be dimensionless when temperature T is defined as an energy ~dubbed tempergy!. ~3! Dimensionless entropy per particle typicall...
متن کاملWhat if MPI Collective Operations Were Instantaneous?
Collective MPI operations are an interesting research topic, since their implementation is complex and there are many different possible ways to improve their performance. It is not always obvious how much a given application will gain from such improvements and some of the methods to improve collective performance are costly and time-consuming to implement. In this paper we use a hybrid MPI si...
متن کاملWhat if electronic medical records were unnecessary?
In this month’s issue of Canadian Family Physician, we present a debate on electronic medical records (EMRs). Manca extols their virtues (page 846),1 while Greiver counters with their drawbacks (page 847).2 It might seem strange to debate the merits of EMRs when most physicians are already using them. Indeed, according to the most recent National Physician Survey (2014), close to 80% of Canadia...
