TUDOR-SN INTERACTS WITH PIWI ANTAGONISTICALLY IN REGULATING SPERMATOGENESIS BUT SYNERGISTICALLY IN SILENCING TRANSPOSONS IN DROSOPHILA.

Tudor-SN Interacts with Piwi Antagonistically in Regulating Spermatogenesis but Synergistically in Silencing Transposons in Drosophila.

Piwi proteins associate with piRNAs and functions in epigenetic programming, post-transcriptional regulation, transposon silencing, and germline development.However, it is not known whether the diverse functions of these proteins are molecularly separable.Here we report that Piwi interacts with Tudor-SN (Tudor staphylococcal nuclease, TSN) antagoni

Spiritualist Writing Machines: Telegraphy, Typtology, Typewriting

This paper examines how religious concepts both reflected and informed the development of new technologies for encoding, transmitting, and printing written information.While many spiritualist writing machines were based on existing technologies that were repurposed for spirit communication, others prefigured or even inspired more advanced technolog

Strengthening spatial reasoning: elucidating the attentional and neural mechanisms associated with mental rotation skill development

Abstract Spatial reasoning is a critical skill in many everyday tasks and in science, technology, engineering, and mathematics disciplines.The current study examined how training on mental rotation (a spatial reasoning task) impacts the completeness of an encoded representation and the ability to rotate the representation.We used a multisession, mu

Identification of very small open reading frames in the genomes of Holmes Jungle virus, Ord River virus, and Wongabel virus of the genus , family

Viruses of the family Rhabdoviridae infect a HEMAVOL 2 broad range of hosts from a variety of ecological and geographical niches, including vertebrates, arthropods, and plants.The arthropod-transmitted members of this family display considerable genetic diversity and remarkable genomic flexibility that enable coding for various accessory proteins i
