Genome Rearrangements: Mother Knows Best!
In Paramecium, developmentally programmed genome rearrangements can be altered by the presence of homologous sequences within the maternal somatic nucleus. Newly identified RNA-binding proteins appear to mediate the transfer of homologous sequence information from the maternal to the developing somatic nucleus, facilitating epigenetic regulation of this large-scale genome reorganization.
متن کاملSoftware Knows Best: A Case for Hardware Transparency and Measurability
Future gains in computer system performance will only come from increased parallelism and efficient execution on specialized hardware. However parallel programming is more difficult than sequential programming, which means parallel programming will only be used if it leads to improved performance or energy efficiency. Because portability and reusability are required to reduce software costs, pa...
متن کاملHave you seen ? “ Father knows best ? ” Ashley
Following fertilization, activation of a complex developmental program requires the differential expression of key genes. In most metazoa, the prevailing view is that early differential gene expression occurs primarily through post-transcriptional regulation of maternally deposited products in the oocyte. Two novel studies published from the Rajewsky laboratory in this issue of The EMBO Journal...

state and at a private university. Despite the great diversity among them, there is a common theme. All universities have flaws, but the ideal is a universal one, a place where scholars are free to study and teach, and young people to learn. Robert Maynard Hutchins was chancellor of the University of Chicago when I was an undergraduate student. At the time, Senator Joseph McCarthy was attacking...
متن کاملAvian predators are less abundant during periodical cicada emergences, but why?
Despite a substantial resource pulse, numerous avian insectivores known to depredate periodical cicadas (Magicicada spp.) are detected less commonly during emergence years than in either the previous or following years. We used data on periodical cicada calls collected by volunteers conducting North American Breeding Bird Surveys within the range of cicada Brood X to test three hypotheses for t...
