CAGE - Consensus Algorithm Genetically Encouraged
… algorithm is called Consensus Algorithm Genetically Encouraged, or CAGE for short. An experimental framework was developed in which to test CAGE fairly. In this experimental framework CAGE was then tested and compared to another similar consensus algorithm, Proof-of-Elapsed-Time (PoET), …

Genetically programmable pathogen sense and destroy/
… Using principles of Synthetic Biology I genetically modified a probiotic strain of E. coli to specifically detect PAO₁ and respond by secreting a novel, pathogen-specific engineered toxin. Additionally, I translated the bacterial system into mammalian cells and established a foundation …

Genetically evolved dynamic control for quadruped walking
… locomotion is achievable through the use of genetically evolved central pattern generators. This strategy is tested both in simulation and on a walking robot. The design of the walker has been chosen to be statically unstable, so that during motion less than three supporting feet may be in …

Consumers and Benefits of Genetically Modified Vegetables
With the adoption of biotechnology in many agricultural products with first-generation biotechnology traits such as increased pest resistance, greater herbicide resistance, and increased yields the growers have accepted them. The next wave of biotech crops have second-generation traits, such as …

Developing a strategy for identifying genetically important animals
Livestock researchers often need to sample animals within a breed to serve as a representative sample of the breed. Identifying the most relevant animals to include in research for genotyping, building a reference population, or inclusion in a gene bank is a complex issue. A suboptimal sampling …

Proteomic analysis of genetically stratified grade-I meningioma
… novel biomarkers and therapeutic targets of genetically stratified meningioma by characterising the proteomic landscape. Materials and methods: Frozen meningioma tissue samples were stratified according to mutational background: AKT1E17K/TRAF7, KLF4K409Q/TRAF7 and NF2-/-. For global …

New Zealand public attitudes towards genetically modified food
… Deer Research and Agresearch, is developing genetically modified (GM) ryegrass with increased biomass, drought tolerance and high sugar levels. PG is conducting field tests in North America in order to gather the data needed for submission of an application to the New Zealand Environmental …

The Growth and Activity of Genetically Diverse Prochlorococcus
… open oceans and encompasses a group of genetically defined clades that are ecologically distinct. Ribosomal RNA is a promising indicator of in situ activity because of its essential role in protein synthesis as well as its phylogenetic information, which could be used to distinguish …

Metabolic Profiling of Genetically Modified Potato Periderm Tissues
<p>Potato tubers are protected from dehydration and pathogens by a covering peel (periderm) impregnated with suberin, a complex cross-linked biopolymer that contains both polyaliphatic and lignin-like aromatic domains. Current models describing the macromolecular structure of suberin assume that …

Analysis of Heated Chemically and Genetically Modified Lipids
This sample of PH-SBO is slightly more stable; however, the LL-SBO should provide an acceptable substitute for PH-SBO for pan-frying applications.

Variation in Thamnocortus insignis - genetically and environmentally plastic?
Environmental variation of Thamnocortus insignis Mast. (Restionaceae) is presented, by using average dry weight measurements of six populations of this species found along the coast of the Cape Province. The dry weight measurements were used to detect variation in the growth rates of the six …

Genetically encodable calcium sensors for Magnetic Resonance Imaging
… specificity to MRI, there is a need for genetically targeted, analyte-specific sensors. Calcium is a molecule of great interest to biology since its fluctuations are highly correlated with neural activity. While much progress has been made in pursuit of genetically encoded calcium sensors …

Transfer of plasmids by genetically-engineered Erwinia carotovora
The ability of a genetically-engineered <i>Erwirzia carotovora</i> subsp. <i>carotovora</I> (Ecc) strain to transfer recombinant chromosomal DNA or plasmids to wildtype Ecc or <i>Pseudomonas fluorescens</i> was tested on filters, within soil microcosms, and <i>in planta</i>. Ecc was engineered by …

Photo Control of Protein Activity Using Genetically Encoded Photoswitches
Many biological processes are governed by protein activities that are spatially and temporally regulated. Where (i.e.: in a particular cell type or subcellular organelle) and when (i.e.: in relation to a cue, or for what duration) a protein is active can dictate its biological role. Photo-control, …

CHARACTERIZATION OF BIOACTIVE PEPTIDES IDENTIFIED FROM GENETICALLY ENCODED LIBRARIES.
… identification of new antimicrobial peptides. Genetically encoded peptide libraries (GEPLs) allow to screen millions of different amino acid combinations, to identify peptides that can bind a target protein or inhibit a protein-protein interaction (PPI) of choice. This technology has been …

Translation rate is genetically encoded and influences protein folding
The degeneracy of the genetic code allows most amino acids to be encoded by multiple codons. The distribution of these so-called synonymous codons among protein coding sequences is not random and multiple theories have arisen to explain the biological significance of such non-uniform codon …

Genetically Engineered Adaptive Resonance Theory (art) Neural Network Architectures
… Thus, we have designed and experimented with genetically engineered EAM and GAM architectures, named GEAM and GGAM. Comparisons of GEAM and GGAM with other ART architectures that were introduced in the ART literature, addressing the category proliferation problem, illustrate similar advantages …

Genetically encoded division machinery for cell free synthetic biology
… the Fts system can be exploited for building a genetically encoded, self-replicating, cell-like system. We also explored additional methods of dividing compartments, such as the use of aqueous two and three phase systems.
