Cell memory mechanism discovered

Αυγ 26, 2013 13:44

The cells in our bodies can divide as often as once every 24 hours, creating a new, identical copy. DNA binding proteins called transcription factors are required for maintaining cell identity. They ensure that daughter cells have the same function as their mother cell, so that for example muscle cells can contract or pancreatic cells can produce insulin. However, each time a cell divides the specific binding pattern of the transcription factors is erased and has to be restored in both mother and daughter cells.

A glimpse into the future of robotic technology

Work on cell memory mechanism could help identify disease-causing mutations

Αυγ 26, 2013 13:42

When a 'mother' cell divides into 'daughter' cells - as often as once every 24 hours - the latter inherit the identity and functions of the former. A team at Sweden's Karolinska Institutet has recently unveiled the mechanisms behind this memory transmission, with help from various institutions and EU-funded projects.

Towards sustainable marine management in Europe

Αυγ 26, 2013 13:40

The EU has several objectives for the holistic and integrated management of marine ecosystems. To implement these objectives, well researched and fully costed options need to be developed for use by governments and other agencies.

Injection moulding of plant-based polymer composites

Αυγ 26, 2013 13:39

EU-funded scientists are developing polymer composites with novel natural reinforcements for use in automotive components. Recyclable and biodegradable dashboards from sisal may be just around the corner.

Antibiotic resistance: From bacterium to host

Αυγ 26, 2013 13:38

Antibiotic-resistant bacteria dramatically reduce the possibilities of effectively treating infections and increase the risk of complications after advanced medical procedures. European researchers teamed up to dissect the mechanisms of antibiotic resistance and how it affects bacterial fitness.

Lolight project

Αυγ 26, 2013 13:36

The project addresses the problems frequently reported by industries and other sectors sensitive to lightning impacts. Even with the best available lightning protection, goods are at risk of damage or burning. In the USA alone, lightning-caused damage exceeds $6 billion annually .

Assessing the sustainability of aquaculture production

Αυγ 26, 2013 13:35

Global consumption of seafood has risen dramatically over the last decade, due to a growing population, increased affluence and changing eating habits - many now see seafood as a healthy alternative to meat. The EU is the largest single regional importer, with many of its imports coming from Asia.
