| Supercomputer reveals new details behind drug-processing protein model Posted: 06 Dec 2011 09:08 PM PST Supercomputer simulations are giving scientists unprecedented access to a key class of proteins involved in drug detoxification.  |
| Genetic markers help feds enforce seafood regulations Posted: 06 Dec 2011 08:52 AM PST New discoveries in "marine forensics" will allow federal seafood agents to genetically test blue marlin to quickly and accurately determine their ocean of origin. The test is needed to ensure that the blue marlin sold in US seafood markets were not taken from the Atlantic Ocean. Regulation of Atlantic blues reflects overfishing and a troubling drop in population.  |
| Oxidative stress: Less harmful than suspected? Posted: 05 Dec 2011 07:26 AM PST Oxidative stress is considered to be involved in a multitude of pathogenic processes and is also implicated in the process of aging. For the first time, scientists have been able to directly observe oxidative changes in a living organism. Their findings in fruit flies raise doubts about the validity of some widely held hypotheses: The research team has found no evidence that the life span is limited by the production of harmful oxidants.  |
