Shedding new light on opsin evolution.
Opsin proteins are essential molecules in mediating the ability of animals to detect and use light for diverse biological functions. Therefore, understanding the evolutionary history of opsins is key to understanding the evolution of light detection and photoreception in animals. As genomic data have appeared and rapidly expanded in quantity, it has become possible to analyse opsins that functi...
متن کاملShedding new light on early caries detection.
Dental caries continues to be a common chronic disease among various population groups. Patient care can be improved with detection at the earliest stage. However, current techniques do not have sufficient sensitivity and specificity. We discuss 2 new methods - optical coherence tomography (OCT) and polarized Raman spectroscopy (PRS) - that are potentially useful for early caries detection and ...
متن کاملShedding new light on circadian clocks
Using a clever combination of genetic and biochemical tools researchers have shown that a transcription factor called USF1 has a central role in determining how mutations of the Clock gene manifest themselves in the behaviour of different mouse strains.
متن کاملAppetite regulation: Shedding new light on obesity
New information illuminating the potential causes of obesity has been appearing rapidly, beginning with the cloning, by Friedman’s group, of the mouse obese (ob) gene, as reported in December 1994 [1]. Many reports on related topics and other molecular biological approaches to obesity have followed, particularly in the last several months. These reports help to form a picture that places regula...
متن کاملShedding new light on random trees
We introduce a weighted model of random trees and analyze the asymptotic properties of their heights. Our framework encompasses most trees of logarithmic height that were introduced in the context of the analysis of algorithms or combinatorics. This allows us to state a sort of“master theorem”for the height of random trees, that covers binary search trees (Devroye, 1986), random recursive trees...
