technology has experienced remarkable development in the last few years with regard to both the target site specificity and the engineering platforms used to generate zinc-finger proteins. As a result‚ two phase I clinical trials aimed at knocking out the CCR5 receptor in T cells isolated from HIV patients to protect these lymphocytes from infection with the virus have been initiated. Moreover‚ ZFNs have been successfully employed to knockout or correct disease-related genes in human stem cells‚ including

C.elegans Research Project Madison Wall A. C. elegans is an ideal organism to use for studying aging because it is generally small in size and has a rapid lifespan. (http://cmgm.stanford.edu/~kimlab/index_wormaging.html). The organism also shares many essential biological characteristics that cause problems in human biology.(Edgley 2014). Worms can be genetically mutated fairly easily because of their 4-day generation time‚ where it develops from an egg to an adult with a maximum length of 1.5mm

Middle Ages’ Most Notorious Killer: The Black Death This paper analyzes the documentary film "Secrets of the dead-Mystery of the Black Death". This film discusses about the Black Death‚ a disease resulting from a combination of bubonic and pneumonic plague‚ which killed millions of Europeans during the Middle Ages. Researchers in this video clarify the origins of this pandemic/how it spread‚ the damage it caused on the whole European continent‚ the theory explaining how some people managed

A. Is a Virus Alive? 1. Viruses are segments of nucleic acids contained in a protein coat. 2. Pathogens are agents that cause disease. 3. Viruses do not grow‚ do not have homeostasis‚ and do not metabolize‚ therefore scientists don’t consider them to be living. 4. Discovery of Viruses i. Scientists filtered bacteria from the sap of infected plants‚ and were surprised to find that the filtered sap could still cause uninfected plants to become infected. ii. In 1935‚ Wendell Stanley of the Rockefeller

1. a Reverse transcriptase is a protein brought into the cell by the virus its job is to take the RNA and convert it into DNA to make genetic information that the host cell can read and recreate copies of the RNA virus only in DNA form b. A virus basically consists of a protein capsule with nucleic acid inside which could be made of DNA or RNA (DNA is what we use for genetic material) A retrovirus is different from other viruses because of how they function in replicating its genetic materials

Stem cell research is a very complex subject. “Stem cells hold great potential for developing therapies to treat a wide range of human diseases. Already in clinical use is blood stem cell transplant‚ known well as bone marrow transplant therapy for the treatment of patients with certain types of blood diseases and cancers. The discovery of stem cells in various adult tissues‚ stem cells plasticity‚ and human
