Outline of the Main Points to be included in your Poster Presentation of your article WHY: Briefly describe the purpose of your article. -To prove that CDK-S and DDK work together to start meiotic recombination in yeast. WHAT: What do you hope to learn from reading this article? -I hope to learn in detail the steps and processes needed to prove how CDK-S and DDK work together to initiate meiotic recombination in yeast. I’m also interested in the steps they took to test all the variables that

Tuberculosis (TB) is a bacterial infection spread through inhaling tiny droplets from the coughs or sneezes of an infected person. It is a serious condition but can be cured with proper treatment. TB mainly affects the lungs. However‚ it can affect any part of the body‚ including the bones and nervous system. Typical symptoms of TB include: having a persistent cough for more than three weeks that brings up phlegm‚ which may be bloody weight loss night sweats high temperature (fever) tiredness

Eucalyptus and Colloidal Silver. Obtain two nutrient agar plates and using a permanent marker draw four quadrants on the bottom of each agar plate. Using a sterile pipet transfer 250 ml of E. coli broth to the middle of each petri dish and evenly spread bacterial culture around the agar plate. Cover and allow the culture to soak into agar for at east 15 minutes. Using sterile forceps‚ carefully place one filter disk from designated sample into the middle of each

G-protein Coupled Receptors (GPCRs) are cell surface proteins that relay extracellular signals to the nucleus. These signals can be in the form of light‚ peptides‚ lipids‚ and sugars. Once activated by a ligand at the outer cell surface‚ GPCRs activate their cognate G-proteins that reside on the inner cell membrane. The activated G-proteins then slide along the inside of the cell membrane to activate a cascade of proteins and enzymes that in turn amplify the original message received by the GPCR

DIFFUSION REVIEW WORKSHEET 1. Define diffusion and what causes it to occur? The action of spreading the light from a light source evenly so as to reduce glare and harsh shadows. Diffusion is caused when entities are small and moving in molecules. They collide because they are moving at a random pace. The temperature causes diffusion. 2. Define the terms hypertonic‚ hypotonic‚ and isotonic solution. * Hypertonic: Having increased pressure or tone‚ in particular. * Hypotonic:

Targets can be divided into four categories… Ion Channels Their modulation by drugs is very important mechanism by which pharmacological actions are produced . 1. Voltage gated Na2+ channels ( local anesthetic) 2. Calcium channels ( Ca2+ channel blockers) 3. K+ channels ( in pancreatic β-cells) Enzymes * Many enzymes are targets for drugs * Drug molecules can act as competitive inhibitor of the enzyme e.g. neostigmine acting

PHYSIOLOGY Transmembrane receptors composed of excitable G-proteins‚ which cross the cell membrane and link selectively with extra cellular ligands are called adrenoceptors. They are also termed as α-2 Adrenoceptor agonists α-2 adrenergic receptors. Three α-2 isoreceptors - α-2a‚ α-2b and α-2c of adreno receptor bind α-2 agonists and antagonists with similar rapport and share an amino acid composition homology of roughly 70 to 75%. The efficacy of sub receptor specific agonists that constrains deleterious
