    Based on these data, he determined that the trait was transmitted through a character present in the cytoplasm of the ovule. Later research by Ruth Sager and others identified DNA present in chloroplasts as being responsible for the unusual inheritance pattern observed.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Protein_domain

    Protein folding - the unsolved problem : Since the seminal work of Anfinsen in the early 1960s, [20] the goal to completely understand the mechanism by which a polypeptide rapidly folds into its stable native conformation remains elusive. Many experimental folding studies have contributed much to our understanding, but the principles that ...

  6. Gene redundancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gene_redundancy

    Gene redundancy can result from gene duplication. [1] Such duplication events are responsible for many sets of paralogous genes. [ 1 ] When an individual gene in such a set is disrupted by mutation or targeted knockout , there can be little effect on phenotype as a result of gene redundancy, whereas the effect is large for the knockout of a ...

    [5] [8] While the essay argues (following de Chardin) that Christianity and evolutionary biology are compatible, a position described as evolutionary creation or theistic evolution, the phrase is also used by those who consider that "in biology" includes anthropology, and those who consider a creator to be unnecessary, such as Richard Dawkins ...

    After introducing medically assisted treatment in 2013, Seppala saw Hazelden’s dropout rate for opiate addicts in the new revamped program drop dramatically. Current data, which covers between January 1, 2013 and July 1, 2014, shows a dropout rate of 7.5 percent compared with the rate of 22 percent for the opioid addicts not in the program.

  9. Seed dormancy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seed_dormancy

    True dormancy or inherent (or innate) dormancy is caused by conditions within the seed that prevent germination even if the conditions are favorable. [7] Imposed dormancy is caused by the external conditions that remain unsuitable for germination [8] Seed dormancy can be divided into two major categories based on what part of the seed produces dormancy: exogenous and endogenous.
