Light pollution disrupts sleep in free-living animals
Artificial lighting can alter individual behaviour, with often drastic and potentially negative effects on biological rhythms, daily activity and reproduction. Whether this is caused by a disruption of sleep, an important widespread behaviour enabling animals to recover from daily stress, is unclear. We tested the hypothesis that light pollution disrupts sleep by recording individual sleep beha...
متن کاملProtein Ligation in Living Cells Using Sortase
Sortagging is a versatile method for site-specific modification of proteins as applied to a variety of in vitro reactions. Here, we explore possibilities of adapting the sortase method for use in living cells. For intracellular sortagging, we employ the Ca²⁺-independent sortase A transpeptidase (SrtA) from Streptococcus pyogenes. Substrate proteins were equipped with the C-terminal sortase-reco...
متن کاملGenome sequencing of “living fossil” fish sheds light on the evolution of land animals
In a newly published article in the scientific journal Nature (496, 311–316), scientists report a significant step in the understanding of the evolutionary process that led certain ancient fish to develop limbs and emerge onto dry land, becoming the ancestors of all amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. This transition is one of the most important in the development of life on earth. The ne...
متن کاملNews Feature: Prehistoric animals, in living color.
Michael Benton used to tell his paleontology students that they would never know the true color of a dinosaur. After all, even fossils that sport light or dark patches may not indicate the creature’s original hue. But in recent years, the vertebrate paleontologist at the University of Bristol in the United Kingdom has had to revise those lectures. In 2010, Benton and colleagues found evidence t...
متن کاملCopper-free click chemistry in living animals.
Chemical reactions that enable selective biomolecule labeling in living organisms offer a means to probe biological processes in vivo. Very few reactions possess the requisite bioorthogonality, and, among these, only the Staudinger ligation between azides and triarylphosphines has been employed for direct covalent modification of biomolecules with probes in the mouse, an important model organis...
