Allan Charles Wilson (1934-1991)
Allan C. Wilson studied genes [5], proteins, and body structures of animals and humans [6] in the US during the second half of the twentieth century. Wilson also studied human evolution [7] . Although morphology [8] and behaviors of humans [6] (Homo sapiens [9]) and great apes differ, Wilson found that they have biochemical and genetic similarities. Wilson and his colleagues calculated the time...
متن کاملLiving cells as test tubes.
The combination of specific probes and advanced optical microscopy now allows quantitative probing of biochemical reactions in living cells. On selected systems, one can detect and track a particular protein with single-molecule sensitivity, nanometer spatial precision, and millisecond time resolution. Metabolites, usually difficult to detect, can be imaged and monitored in living cells with co...
متن کامل"Mitochondrial DNA and Human Evolution" (1987), by Rebecca Louise Cann, Mark Stoneking, and Allan Charles Wilson
In 1987 Rebecca Louise Cann, Mark Stoneking, and Allan Charles Wilson published "Mitochondrial DNA and Human Evolution" in the journal Nature. The authors compared mitochondrial DNA from different human populations worldwide, and from those comparisons they argued that all human populations had a common ancestor in Africa around 200,000 years ago. Mitochondria DNA (mtDNA) is a small circular ge...
متن کاملApproximate Ginsparg-Wilson fermions: A first test
We construct a 4-d lattice Dirac operator D using a systematical expansion in terms of simple operators on the lattice. The GinspargWilson equation turns into a system of coupled equations for the expansion coefficients ofD. We solve these equations for a finite parametrization of D and find an approximate solution of the Ginsparg-Wilson equation. We analyze the spectral properties of our D for...
متن کاملContractility of lungs and air-tubes: experiments performed in 1840 by Charles J.B. Williams.
In the 18th century, some medical practitioners considered the main pathological feature of asthma to be the production of mucus. Later, during the 19th century, airway smooth muscle contraction was recognized to be a possible cause of airflow obstruction. However, not until 1840 was the contractility of airway smooth muscle clearly established by Charles J.B. Williams, a famous London physicia...
