Something old, something new: Evolution and the structural divergence of dupl...
(PhysOrg.com) -- Gene duplications are arguably the driving force of organismal evolution ? and if they survive, such duplicate genes will diverge in both regulatory and coding genomic regions. Coding divergences, in turn, can be caused by nucleotide substitutions or exon-intron structural changes. (Exons are DNA bases that are transcribed into mRNA and eventually code for amino acids in ...
Prions enter stealth mode in the spleen, causing silent infections | Not Exac...
There?s something unfeasibly sinister about prions. These infectious entities are incredibly simple, but they can cause fatal and untreatable diseases like mad cow disease, CJD, and others. Prions are malformed versions of a protein called PrP. Like all other proteins, they?re made of chains of amino acids that fold into complex shapes. Prions fold incorrectly, [...]
