Examination of internal 'wiring' of yeast, worm, and fly reveals conserved circuits
First-of-its-kind analysis published in the Feb. 8 PNAS supports the concept of a basic wiring diagram for all eukaryotes. Researchers in California, Israel, and Germany have compared three distantly related species ?baker's yeast, a worm, and the fruit fly ?and reported that protein "wiring" connections in one species are often conserved in all three. This first-of-its-kind analysis of t...Conserved amino acids play both structural and mechanistic roles in sandwich-like protein
The question of whether amino acids in sandwich-like proteins are there to stabilize the structure or to speed up the protein-folding process is best answered by "all of the above," according to researchers at Rice University in Houston. This discovery, reported in today's issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, could benefit future research on treatments for disease...Seals protect brain, conserve oxygen by turning off shivering response on icy dives
Seals shiver when exposed to cold air but not when diving in chilly water, a finding that researchers believe allows the diving seal to conserve oxygen and minimize brain damage that could result from long dives. The researchers presented the study at The American Physiological Society's conference "Comparative Physiology 2006: Integrating Diversity," in Virginia Beach, Va., October 8-11....Centre Asks States to Conserve Water
The Centre has asked all states to conserve water through a judicious mix of major, medium and minor projects with due emphasis on traditional system of water harvesting. It cautioned the states that the availability of water was highly variable and a comprehensive and integrated approach is the need of the hour. The National Advisory Council on Recharge to Ground Wat...LOTUS™ Electronic Oxygen Conserver (with alarm)
