Olfaction: Diverse Species, Conserved Principles
Olfaction is a vitally important sense for all animals. There are striking similarities between species in the organization of the olfactory pathway, from the nature of the odorant receptor proteins, to perireceptor processes, to the organization of the olfactory CNS, through odor-guided behavior and memory. These common features span a phylogenetically broad array of animals, implying that the...
متن کاملArtificial olfaction systems: principles and applications to food analysis
Food analysis is a complex discipline involving many d i fferent basic sciences. A manifold of diff e r e n t principles of instrumental is currently investigated and used for the analysis of foods and beverages. At industrial level, the objectives of these measurements are mostly concerned with the safety (e.g. the search for contaminants), the composition (to individuate the basic constituent...
متن کاملMimicking biological design and computing principles in artificial olfaction.
Biology has inspired solutions to many engineering problems, including chemical sensing. Modern approaches to chemical sensing have been based on the biological principle of combining cross-selective chemical sensors with a pattern recognition engine to identify odors. Here, we review some recent advances made in mimicking biological design and computing principles to develop an electronic nose...
متن کاملHigh-Throughput Sequencing Reveals Diverse Sets of Conserved, Nonconserved, and Species-Specific miRNAs in Jute
MicroRNAs play a pivotal role in regulating a broad range of biological processes, acting by cleaving mRNAs or by translational repression. A group of plant microRNAs are evolutionarily conserved; however, others are expressed in a species-specific manner. Jute is an agroeconomically important fibre crop; nonetheless, no practical information is available for microRNAs in jute to date. In this ...
متن کاملIdentification of a conserved domain among cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterases from diverse species.
Partial amino acid sequences have been determined for the Ca2+/calmodulin-stimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase from bovine brain and the cGMP-stimulated cyclic nucleotide phosphodiesterase from bovine heart. Examination of these sequences for homologous segments and comparison with protein sequences derived from the nucleotide sequences of the yeast PDE2 gene and the Drosophila dunce+...
