I disagree. This is not a good article, it does not state anything (what kind of genetherapy, what kind of gene, how was it administered) but wants to tell a personal story. You can not even say how they achieved longer telomeres in white b

If it is true what is written in this pr articel, she is an even bigger lunatic then previously thought. You do not treat someone with two experimental treatments at the same time, that is unscientific to the power of five. How would you de

These "scientists" try to understand depression in order to help people. If you do not want that you do not have to take the mediciation. Contrarily, I would. And that you call this torture is a simple case of you mocking every pe

Thanks, thats what I was looking for. The first paragraph totally sounded like they were targetting offtargets, but in the end they dont.

So it does prevent failure in NHEJ, doesn't it? But how does it prevent offtarget effects? I mean, if the wrong guide sequence is bound, an offtarget is mutated all along, isn't it?

I think you underestimate the immune system. We automatically remoce thousands of misfolded proteins every second in our cells. Its just those few the cellular defence has not yet adapted to too much that we notice. Some kinds of vaccinatio

Not really. The 3D structure of DNA is also important for its function. The difference is that RNA is more reactive (chemically speaking), else they are pretty much equivalent.

Depends how you define it. A biological system is not deterministic (at least on the scale we typically observe) so from that point no. Else you can see a cell or an organism as one computer but then you can also define the universe one big

No. It is just that we do not have a cure or vaccine because it does not appear that often. And no, prions will not eradicate entire species because they not living under any definition. Therefore there is no direct evolution, if you are re

Exactly, this and few other blogs, lawyers of satirical magazines and even Erdogan lawyer have said that they do not expect much from this prosecution. It is just, Erdogan has to go this now, else he loses his face. At some point he will lo

If it is unjustifiable, it will go to the german high court and will be judged unconstitutional. Merkel does not need favours from Erdogan, Merkel needs to stand strong within her country (not that I am happy about that). She has said previ

Why? Just because we do not believe in this "free speech" thingy and trust our judicative? If it has been serious defamation, he (Boehmermann) will get a sentence (which he quite probable won't), if not he will not. Merkel ju

That is not the point. It was not claimed it is satire, it was claimed by Boehermann (about 3 times in the one minute of the poem) that this is an example of what is not allowed in Germany. He even said that this might get zensored. You can

I use "Tree Style Tabs" and the tab bar on the left side instead of at the top. It groups tabs on how you link-opened them from each other automatically, but you can regroup them depending on your needs. It's one of the reaso

Well, but we should also not forget that one of the reasons we have not left coal yet are the many jobs that depend on it. Just this weekend, there were massive protest again from the coal and steel workers union against european environmen

Well, another big issue with (current?) solar panels is that they are highly problematic in case of fire (fire brigade with the waterhose closes the electric circuit with the grounded panel) And geothermal has more than once been suspected

Well, I am not sure but from my point of view, this article misses quite a few arguments against nuclear power. Some may be excusable but not mentioning waste storage (or even regeneration, though I want to see it before I believe it) at al

I am reading about this story for a while now and still do not get what is so surprising about it. While people of caucasian descent all share about 2% of their DNA with the Neanderthals, thats all random bits and not a single larger fragme
