PX domains are found in a variety of proteins that associate with cell membranes, but their
molecular function has remained obscure. We show here that the PX domains in p47phox …

A stress-activated serine/threonine protein kinase, p38 mitogen-activated protein kinase (p38
MAPK), belongs to the MAP kinase superfamily. Diverse extracellular stimuli, including …

The historical development of the Darcy-Weisbach equation for pipe flow resistance is
examined. A concise examination of the evolution of the equation itself and the Darcy friction …

Liquid Crystals & Biological Structures covers analogies between biological structures and
behavior of living cells to liquid crystalline structures and their behavior. It emphasizes that …

When certain solids (eg, p-azoxyanisole) are heated they do not pass directly into the liquid
state but adopt a structure which has properties intermediate between those of a true crystal …

An uncharacterized gene locus (Chr16:hCG_1815491), now named colorectal neoplasia
differentially expressed (gene symbol CRNDE), is activated early in colorectal neoplasia. The …

BACKGROUND: Providing health care services in rural communities in Canada remains a
challenge. What affects a family medicine resident's decision concerning practice location? …

Background The development of colorectal cancer (CRC) is accompanied by extensive
epigenetic changes, including frequent regional hypermethylation particularly of gene promoter …

We live in a world of diminished eco-logical diversity. We extract energy, materials, and
organisms from nature and modify landscapes at rates that cannot be sustained. These activities …

Migrating cells need to make different actin assemblies at the cell's leading and trailing
edges and to maintain physical separation of signals for these assemblies. This asymmetric …
