Mutualists endow certain appetites
SCIENCE sciencemag.org However, mechanisms are also needed to block expression of genes that specify other cell lineages. Kim et al. identified such a mechanism in the Drosophila male germ line. A multiple–zinc finger protein and a chromatin remodeler were found to act together to block transcription from cryptic promoters. These factors prevented aberrant gene expression and enabled proper dif...
متن کاملTaste Processing: Whetting our appetites
Two G-protein-coupled receptors have been identified that are present in the apical membranes of rat and mouse taste cells and differentially distributed across the tongue and palate. They are strong candidates for being taste receptors and their discovery has provided new tools for research into gustatory processing.
متن کاملHypothesis: bacteria control host appetites.
To help investigate the relationship between inflammatory and other diseases and the composition of the gut microbiota, we propose that a positive-feedback loop exists between the preferences of the host for a particular dietary regimen, the composition of the gut microbiota that depends on this regimen, and the preferences of the host as influenced by the gut microbiota. We cite evidence in su...
متن کامل14 - Of Kings and Capitals
ALAN L.

This dynamism and mutability in the face of exogenou-s forces might suggest the impossibility of a coherent, general theory about the forms and forces of urban transformation of t...
متن کاملSexual Behavior: A Seminal Peptide Stimulates Appetites
A new study shows that female fruitflies eat more after mating, and that a multi-functional peptide provided in the seminal fluid of their mates induces this behavior. These findings contribute significantly to our understanding of mating behaviors and resource allocation, and may provide insights useful for controlling the reproduction of insect pests.
