What is Gene Expression?01:42

What is Gene Expression?

197.2K
Overview
Gene expression is the process in which DNA directs the synthesis of functional products, that is, proteins. Cells can regulate gene expression at various stages. It allows organisms to generate different cell types and enables cells to adapt to internal and external factors.
Genetic Information Flows from DNA to RNA to Protein
A gene is a stretch of DNA that serves as the blueprint for functional RNAs and proteins. Since DNA is made up of nucleotides and proteins consist of amino...

What is Gene Expression?

11.6K
A gene is a stretch of DNA that serves as the blueprint for functional RNAs and proteins. Since DNA is comprised  of nucleotides and proteins are comprised of amino acids, a mediator is required to convert the information encoded in DNA into proteins. This mediator is the messenger RNA (mRNA). mRNA copies the blueprint from DNA by a process called transcription. In eukaryotes, transcription occurs in the nucleus by complementary base-pairing with the DNA template. The mRNA is then...

Expressing Solution Concentration

70.8K
A solute is a component of a solution that is typically present at a much lower concentration than the solvent. Solute concentrations are often described with qualitative terms such as dilute (of relatively low concentration) and concentrated (of relatively high concentration).
Concentrations may be quantitatively assessed using a wide variety of measurement units, each convenient for particular applications. Molarity (M) is a useful concentration unit for many applications in chemistry.

Cell Specific Gene Expression

16.6K
Multicellular organisms contain a variety of structurally and functionally distinct cell types, but the DNA in all the cells originated from the same parent cells. The differences in the cells can be attributed to the differential gene expression. Liver cells, whose functions include detoxification of blood, production of bile to metabolize fats, and synthesis of proteins essential for metabolism, must express a specific set of genes to perform their functions. Gene expression also varies with...

Algebraic Expressions

391
Algebraic expressions are essential in mathematics. They represent relationships through variables, constants, and operations. These expressions help describe patterns and solve problems in various mathematical fields. Understanding their components, classifications, and operations allows for efficient simplification and manipulation.Each algebraic expression consists of individual parts, including numbers and symbols, that work together to form meaningful mathematical statements. The numerical...

Chromatin Position Affects Gene Expression02:35

Chromatin Position Affects Gene Expression

25.0K
Chromatin is the massive complex of DNA and proteins packaged inside the nucleus. The complexity of chromatin folding and how it is packaged inside the nucleus greatly influences  access to genetic information. Generally, the nucleus' periphery is considered transcriptionally repressive, while the cell's interior is considered a transcriptionally active area. 
Topologically Associated Domains (TADs)
The 3-dimensional positioning of chromatin in the nucleus influences the...

Area of Science:

  • Philosophy of Mind
  • Psychoanalytic Theory

Background:

  • First-person authority in psychological self-ascriptions is often explained as an epistemic accomplishment.
  • Existing theories of the unconscious, particularly Freudian and Lacanian, face challenges in conceptualization.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop an expressivist reading of first-person authority.
  • To propose a non-epistemic analysis of the meaning of unconsciousness.
  • To critically evaluate psychoanalytic theories of the unconscious.

Main Methods:

  • Utilizing Wittgenstein's grammatical remarks on psychological self-ascriptions.
  • Applying an expressivist framework to analyze unconsciousness.
  • Engaging in critical discussion of Freud's and Lacan's theories.

Main Results:

  • First-person authority is reframed as a non-epistemic phenomenon, challenging detectivist accounts.
  • A novel non-epistemic analysis of unconsciousness is proposed.
  • The necessity of a "subject of the unconscious" and its deduction from first-personal reference paradoxes are rejected.

Conclusions:

  • An expressivist approach offers a viable alternative for understanding first-person authority.
  • The concept of unconsciousness can be analyzed without recourse to epistemic assumptions or a Cartesian subject.
  • Psychoanalytic interpretations of the unconscious require re-evaluation in light of this expressivist framework.
