I know a lot of sci-geeks were lured into the field by space. Rockets, space travel, great science fiction–I understand the appeal. But as it seemed much more physics oriented, space wasn’t my primary fascination. But the effects of space travel on organisms (humans, of course, but others as well)–that’s something I can find pretty [...]
In this week’s tip I’d like to introduce you to CircuitsDB, which describes itself as: “…a database where transcriptional and post-transcriptional (miRNA mediated) network information is fused together in order to propose and recognize non trivial regulatory combinations. “ I found out about the database from the BioMed Central article “CircuitsDB: a database of mixed [...]
I recently read an article in Science entitled “Lysine Acetylation Targets Protein Complexes and Co-Regulates Major Cellular Functions” written by Choudhary et al. The research uses “high-resolution mass spectrometry to identify 3600 lysine acetylation sites on 1750 proteins” and “demonstrate[s] that the regulatory scope of lysine acetylation is broad and comparable with that of other [...]
