Top 7 in Molecular Biology A snapshot of the most highly ranked articles in molecular biology and related areas, from Faculty of 1000 1. Lighting up RNA A novel technique for tagging and following RNA processes in live cells promises to illuminate RNA biology the way green fluorescent protein (GFP) did for the study of proteins. The tagging method consists of short RNA sequences that bind to GFP-like fluorophores and produce a wide range of colors. These RNA-fluorophore complexes can then be fused to RNAs in the cell. J.S. 2. Though large swaths of non-coding RNAs exist in mammals, no one had clearly explained their role. M. 3. Budding yeast is one of the few species that lack RNA interference, a process in which small RNA molecules affect gene expression and is essential for most eukaryotic species. I.A. 4.

Researchers uncovered the pulses of external signaling factors that push resting cells to divide. Y. 2. Just before cells divide, chromosomes must duplicate and separate in a coordinated dance. L. 3. While many tissue types stop growing when nutrients are scarce, Drosophila brain tissue continues to grow, even when starved for food. L. Drosophila 4. Researchers showed that the septin cytoskeleton, a network of filamentous proteins, plays a critical role in directing microtubules reorganization. J. 5. In budding yeast, it was known that the kinetochores—the spots on chromosomes where spindle fibers separate chromosomes during cell division—rely on methylation of a protein called DAM1. J. 6. J. 7.

Craig Venter Early life and education[edit] Venter was born in Salt Lake City, Utah, the son of Elizabeth and John Venter.[6] In his youth, he did not take his education seriously, preferring to spend his time on the water in boats or surfing.[7] According to his biography, A Life Decoded, he was said to never be a terribly engaged student, having Cs and Ds on his eighth-grade report cards.[8] He graduated from Mills High School in Millbrae, California. Although he was against the Vietnam War,[9] Venter was drafted and enlisted in the United States Navy where he worked in the intensive-care ward of a field hospital.[10] While in Vietnam, he attempted suicide by swimming out to sea, but changed his mind more than a mile out.[11] Being confronted with wounded, maimed, and dying soldiers on a daily basis instilled in him a desire to study medicine[12] — although he later switched to biomedical research. Venter began his college career at a community college, College of San Mateo in California.

The Promises, Demands, and Risks of Garage Biology | Bio 2.0 | Learn Science at Scitable As you're reading this there is an amateur scientist, somewhere, doing an experiment. Community lab spaces are cropping up across the globe where ordinary people can get together to pool resources and brain power to come up with new technologies. Many are tinkering with electronics, but some are dabbling with living systems. These "biohackers" have recently begun to organize into a movement of hobbyists that work out of basements, garages, and community spaces. I'm going to weigh in on the promises, demands, and risks that this movement represents. The Promises We are living in a time of rapid technological expansion. The fact is that, though doing biology is expensive, there really are biohacking projects for every budget: isolating DNA from strawberries using meat tenderizer, soap, and alcohol; culturing and identifying bacteria from yogurt; and genotyping yourself with PCR. That's not to say that DIY biohackers can't make contributions to science. The Demands The Risks References:
