Download or read book Unfolded Proteins written by Trevor P. Creamer and published by Nova Publishers. This book was released on 2008 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The word revolution has a number of definitions (The American Heritage Dictionary, 2006). The one most pertinent to this series and volume is 'a sudden or momentous change in a situation'. Recent years have seen an unprecedented explosion of interest in unfolded proteins in all of their various forms. Coupled with this increase in interest we have seen momentous changes in the way unfolded proteins are viewed. Two particular paradigms have come under close scrutiny: unfolded proteins are disordered random coils devoid of persistent structure, and protein function first requires protein structure. The first of these is currently a hotly debated subject. The second paradigm we can safely claim has been overturned. There is a second definition of revolution that is quite relevant to a significant portion of the work reviewed herein, in particular those chapters dealing with local and persistent structure in unfolded proteins. That definition is 'a turning or rotational motion about an axis' (The American Heritage Dictionary, 2006). About four decades ago, Charles Tanford (1968) demonstrated that highly denatured proteins possess hydrodynamic properties consistent with Paul Flory's random coil (Flory, 1969). Given that the Flory random coil definition included the stipulation that conformers making up the denatured state ensemble would differ in energy by just a few kT, there has been the assumption that denatured states must therefore be completely random in nature with no persistent structure or biases towards particular conformers. Notably however, Tanford did note the random coil-like hydrodynamic data he obtained did not necessarily rule out the presence of structure in denatured proteins (Tanford, 1968). Around the same time, Sam Krimm and M. Lois Tiffany noted that the CD spectra they obtained for proteins in the presence of high concentration of chemical denaturants had similarities to spectra obtained for homopolymers of proline, lysine, and glutamic acid in water (Tiffany and Krimm, 1968a, 1968b, 1973, 1974). Homopolymers of these residues were known to adopt the left-handed polyproline II conformation, leading Tiffany and Krimm to hypothesise that highly denatured proteins possess significant polyproline II helix content. Of these two views, that espousing the lack of structure in denatured proteins became more widely adopted and was, over time, adopted as a central paradigm in protein folding. As several of the chapters in this volume note, a Tiffany and Krimm-like view appears to be, to some extent, the more correct one. The level to which it is correct is still unknown, although it is clear that the polyproline II helical conformation is not the only, perhaps not even the most common, persistent conformation present in unfolded proteins. Thus we have come through a full circle or revolution. (from the preface)

Book excerpt: "Masterful" – Ian Dunt "Fascinating" – Professor Brian Cox "Vital" – David Miliband *** Britain's 2016 vote to leave the EU divided the nation, unleashing years of political turmoil. Today, many remain unreconciled to Brexit whilst, in a tragic irony, some of those most committed to it are angry and dissatisfied with what was delivered. In this clear-headed assessment, Chris Grey argues that this painful legacy was all but inevitable, skilfully unpacking how and why the promise of Brexit dissolved during the confusing and often dramatic events that followed the referendum. Now fully updated with an afterword covering each element of the Brexit debate since the end of the transition period in 2021, this new edition remains the essential guide to one of the most bitterly contested issues of our time.

Book Dreams of Archives Unfolded

Download or read book Dreams of Archives Unfolded written by Jocelyn Fenton Stitt and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 2021-06-18 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first book on pan-Caribbean life writing, Dreams of Archives Unfolded reveals the innovative formal practices used to write about historical absences within contemporary personal narratives. Although the premier genres of writing postcoloniality in the Caribbean have been understood to be fiction and poetry, established figures such as Erna Brodber, Maryse Condé, Lorna Goodison, Edwidge Danticat, Saidiya Hartmann, Ruth Behar, and Dionne Brand and emerging writers such as Yvonne Shorter Brown, and Gaiutra Bahadur use life writing to question the relationship between the past and the present. Stitt theorizes that the remarkable flowering of life writing by Caribbean women since 2000 is not an imitation of the “memoir boom” in North America and Europe; instead, it marks a different use of the genre born out of encountering gendered absences in archives and ancestral memory that cannot be filled with more research. Dreams of Archives makes a significant contribution to studies of Caribbean literature by demonstrating that women’s autobiographical narratives published in the past twenty years are feminist epistemological projects that rework Caribbean studies’ longstanding commitment to creating counter-archives.

Book Biotechnology  The Future Unfolded

Download or read book Biotechnology The Future Unfolded written by Dr. Niraj Nath Tiwari and published by Book Saga Publications. This book was released on 2024-05-20 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Biotechnology is a dynamic and interdisciplinary field that harnesses biological systems, living organisms, or derivatives to develop innovative solutions to address a wide range of challenges in various sectors, including medicine, agriculture, industry, and environmental management. This scientific discipline integrates principles from biology, chemistry, genetics, and other related fields to manipulate and modify living organisms at the molecular and cellular levels for practical applications. The term “biotechnology” itself encompasses a broad spectrum of techniques, methodologies, and technologies that utilize biological systems or derivatives to create products, improve processes, or develop new technologies. One of the fundamental aspects of biotechnology is genetic engineering, which involves the intentional alteration of an organism’s genetic material using various molecular biology techniques. This manipulation can lead to the creation of genetically modified organisms (GMOs) with desired traits, such as increased resistance to diseases, enhanced nutritional content, or improved tolerance to environmental conditions. Genetic engineering has revolutionized medicine, enabling the production of therapeutic proteins, vaccines, and genetically modified cells for treating various diseases.

Book excerpt: First published in 1987. In Unfolding Meaning, the author, one of the most provocative and original thinkers of our time, argues that there are other ways of thinking to bring about a different, more harmonious reality. Our fragmented, mechanistic notion of order derives from the modem conception that our earth is only part, not - as it was with the Greeks - the centre, of the immense universe of material bodies. The implications of this idea permeate modem science and technology today and also our general attitude to life.

And their futures seemed destined to fork apart: Jonah’s physical condition is debilitating, and epileptic seizures fill his life with frustration. Whereas Stormi is seemingly carefree, and navigates life by sensing things before they happen. And her most recent premonition is urging her to leave town. When Stormi begs Jonah for help, he finds himself swept into a dark mystery his small town has been keeping for years. And the answers Stormi needs about her own past could possibly destroy everything Jonah has ever known—including his growing relationship with Stormi herself. Advance praise: “Friesen's story unfolds with so much intrigue, swells with so much heart, I had to keep reading. And the writing? Beautiful!” —Jay Asher, author of the #1 New York Times bestselling novel Thirteen Reasons Why “As someone with Tourette Syndrome, I grew up with a condition that others did not understand. It affected the way I was viewed and the way I viewed myself. I applaud Jonathan Friesen for telling a story about overcoming such a challenge in Unfolding. Hopefully, this will inspire others growing up with such conditions as well as help everyone else better understand what is involved.” —Tim Howard, former US national team goaltender and current goalkeeper for the Colorado Rapids
