Genetically Engineering Human-Animal Chimeras and Lives Worth Living
Between the Species: An Online Journal for the Study of Philosophy and Animals, 2008 Genetic engineering often generates fear of out of control scientists creating Frankenstein creatures that will terrorize the general populace, especially in the cases of human-animal chimeras. While sometimes an accurate characterization of some researchers, this belief is often the result of repugnance for new technology rather than being rationally ...

Genetic control of cellular differentiation in Ulva mutabilis II. Induced chimeras [PDF]
Hereditas, 2009 Mutants were induced by ultraviolet light in haploid gametophyte germlings of the haplodiplontic multicellular alga Ulva mutabilis. When treated, they were from 2 to 10 days old and consisted of one cell (2 days old) to a few hundred cells (10 days old).

Sample richness and genetic diversity as drivers of chimera formation in nSSU metagenetic analyses [PDF]
Nucleic Acids Research, 2012 Eukaryotic diversity in environmental samples is often assessed via PCR-based amplification of nSSU genes. However, estimates of diversity derived from pyrosequencing environmental data sets are often inflated, mainly because of the formation of chimeric sequences during PCR amplification.

A target repurposing approach identifies N-myristoyltransferase as a new candidate drug target in filarial nematodes [PDF]
, 2014 Myristoylation is a lipid modification involving the addition of a 14-carbon unsaturated fatty acid, myristic acid, to the N-terminal glycine of a subset of proteins, a modification that promotes their binding to cell membranes for varied biological ...

Nanotherapies for Atherosclerosis: Targeting, Catalysis, and Energy Transduction
Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.Atherosclerosis management is hindered by poor drug targeting and plaque heterogeneity. Nanotechnology overcomes these barriers via three core strategies: (1) target‐engineered nanocarriers that achieve lesion‐specific precision via ligand modification, biomimetic camouflage, stimuli‐responsive release, and self‐propelling nanomotors; (2) catalytic ...

Clinical Persistence of Chlamydia trachomatis Sexually Transmitted Strains Involves Novel Mutations in the Functional αββα Tetramer of the Tryptophan Synthase Operon. [PDF]
, 2019 Clinical persistence of Chlamydia trachomatis (Ct) sexually transmitted infections (STIs) is a major public health concern. In vitro persistence is known to develop through interferon gamma (IFN-γ) induction of indoleamine 2,3-dioxygenase (IDO), which ...
