The Exceptions to the Central Dogma of Biology—Bending the Rules and Extending the Scope
ABSTRACT The central dogma is an organizing framework for how information flows in biological systems. First presented in 1957 by Francis Crick in his talk “On Protein Synthesis” as a fundamental hypothesis of how information is transferred from DNA to proteins but not out of proteins, it is now introduced in cell biology textbooks as three sequential ...

Modular Metalloprotein Nanowires With Semiconductor‐Scale Conductivity and Tunable Redox Behavior
Conductive protein nanowires are built by aligning three different metalloproteins along an ultrastable filament scaffold. The resulting micrometer‐length nanowires reach conductivities of 1.75 S cm−1. Redox behavior is set by the metalloprotein chosen, while conductivity is governed by the spacing the scaffold imposes, making both independently ...

This study investigates the role of manganese metabolism in Alzheimer's disease (AD) pathogenesis. Using integrated bioinformatics and machine learning, four core manganese‐related diagnostic genes (TSPO, PTBP1, GLO1, ACACB) were identified, showing high diagnostic accuracy. The analysis also revealed significant immune microenvironment alterations and

ABSTRACT Aims To understand the role of simulation in ensuring the development of the competencies expected by newly graduated register nurses (NGRNs) from the work initiation up to 5 months of transition. Methods Mixed‐method study design. A longitudinal phase employing the Nurse Competence Scale (NCS, from 0 to 100, excellent) to assess the perceived
