Real‐time assay of ribonucleotide reductase activity with a fluorescent RNA aptamer
Ribonucleotide reductases (RNR) synthesize DNA building blocks de novo, making them crucial in DNA replication and drug targeting. FLARE introduces the first single‐tube real‐time coupled RNR assay, which enables isothermal tracking of RNR activity at nanomolar enzyme levels and allows the reconstruction of allosteric regulatory patterns and rapid ...

Disordered but rhythmic—the role of intrinsic protein disorder in eukaryotic circadian timing
Unstructured domains known as intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) are present in nearly every part of the eukaryotic core circadian oscillator. IDRs enable many diverse inter‐ and intramolecular interactions that support clock function. IDR conformations are highly tunable by post‐translational modifications and environmental conditions, which ...

General practice workload [PDF]
Des seems to have been working in an alternative universe of general practice.1 Numerous pressures from outside general practice control have driven up workload. Computers have allowed identification of all of one’s patients to be tested, checked, and ripened for preventive medication. Chronic disease …

The role of histone modifications in transcription regulation upon DNA damage
This review discusses the critical role of histone modifications in regulating gene expression during the DNA damage response (DDR). By modulating chromatin structure and recruiting repair factors, these post‐translational modifications fine‐tune transcriptional programmes to maintain genomic stability.

Time after time – circadian clocks through the lens of oscillator theory
Oscillator theory bridges physics and circadian biology. Damped oscillators require external drivers, while limit cycles emerge from delayed feedback and nonlinearities. Coupling enables tissue‐level coherence, and entrainment aligns internal clocks with environmental cues.

Development of a PROM to measure patient-centredness in chronic care consultations in primary care
Introduction Validated patient-reported outcome measures (PROMs) are crucial for assessing patients’ experiences in the healthcare system. Both clinically and theoretically, patient-centered consultations are essential in patient-care, and are often ...

Circuits of power : a study of the development of computer software and its use in general medical practice : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Sociology at Massey University [PDF]
This thesis explores several phases in the life history of a software package developed in New Zealand for the primary healthcare market in order to show how the package is implicated in maintaining or changing existing distributions of power.
