Despite the importance of carnivores in terrestrial ecosystems, many nations have implemented well-coordinated, state-funded initiatives to remove predators, largely because of conflicts with humans over livestock. Although these control efforts have been successful in terms of the number of carnivores removed, their effects on the viability of the industries they seek to protect are less under...

R1170 Current Biology 26, R1167–R1176, November 21, 2016 for the Science of Human History at Jena, Germany (Science (2016) 354, 268–269). The last surviving groups of tropical forest tribes are currently facing the threat of extinction due to the ongoing destruction of their forests (Curr. Biol. (2015) 25, R635–R638). Linking their plight to the need to conserve forests to combat climate change...

Thie Pteroylglutamate Components of American Diets

Folic acid activity, as determined by conventional bacteriological assay procedures, reflects the presence of a number of compounds other than pteroylglutamic acid (PGA). For example, one popular test organism, Streptococcus fecalis, will show a growth response in folic acid free medium to at least ten derivatives of PGA in addition to thymine, hypoxanthine, theobromine, guanidine, uric acid, a...

Profile of James M. Berger.

Whether he is restoring his 1976 Triumph TR6 British roadster or analyzing proteins, James Berger is curious about how machines work and what fuels them. Berger, a professor in the Department of Biophysics and Biophysical Chemistry at Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, primarily studies biological nanomachines, which are fueled by the cellular energy currency ATP and carry out coordin...
