Twenty thousand ORFan microbial protein families for the biologist?
The genomes of most newly sequenced organisms contain a significant fraction of ORFs (open reading frames) that match no other sequence in the databases. We refer to these singleton ORFs as sequence ORFans. Because little can be learned about ORFans by homology, the origin and functions of ORFans remain a mystery. However, in this era of full genome sequencing, it seems that ORFans have been un...
متن کاملThe Thousand-and-One Cryptographers
Chaum’s Dining Cryptographers protocol crystallises the essentials of security just as other famous diners once captured deadlock and livelock: it is a benchmark for security models and their associated verification methods. Here we give a correctness proof of the Cryptographers in a new style, one in which stepwise refinement plays a prominent role. Furthermore, our proof applies to arbitraril...
متن کامل"One-thousand one... one-thousand two...": chronometric counting violates the scalar property in interval timing.
Weber's law applied to interval timing is called the scalar property. A hallmark of timing in the seconds-to-minutes range, the scalar property is characterized by proportionality between the standard deviation of a response distribution and the duration being timed. In this temporal reproduction study, we assessed whether the scalar property was upheld when participants chronometrically counte...
متن کاملA Core Modeling Language for the Working Molecular Biologist (Abstract)
Many cases have already been made for the use of formal languages in the description of molecular biology systems (e.g. [EKL02]). Which computational models will be up to the task and offer useful tool for the investigations of these systems is not clear for the moment. It is not even clear what kind of biologically relevant questions one would be prompted to ask if such tools were available. T...
متن کاملA Thousand Families in Newcastle-Upon-Tyne
Sir James Spence, whose recent death was such a loss to British medicine, has many memorials in the form of his contributions to knowledge; a significant memorial is that of this account of the "thousand family survey" which he inaugurated and inspired. He guided the book, which is the story of the survey, almost to the point of publication and so, as the authors state, it is a memorial "largel...
