Gene Conversion02:08

Gene Conversion

10.6K
Other than maintaining genome stability via DNA repair, homologous recombination plays an important role in diversifying the genome. In fact, the recombination of sequences forms the molecular basis of genomic evolution. Random and non-random permutations of genomic sequences create a library of new amalgamated sequences. These newly formed genomes can determine the fitness and survival of cells. In bacteria, homologous and non-homologous types of recombination lead to the evolution of new...

Conversion of Units

36.1K
Sometimes, there is a need to convert from one unit to another one. For instance, reading a cookbook in which quantities are expressed in units of liters or ounces may require conversion of quantities to cups. Or, when looking up directions on how to get to a location, we may be interested to know how many miles we are going to walk. In this case, we would have to convert units of feet or meters to miles.
The first step in the unit conversion is to list the given units and the units required...

Conversion of Alcohols to Alkyl Halides

8.4K
This lesson delves into the conversion of alcohols to corresponding alkyl halides and the mechanism of action for different reagents. Typically, the hydroxyl group is first protonated to convert it to a stable leaving group. Consequently, based on the starting alcohol, the mechanism undergoes either of the nucleophilic substitution routes, SN1 or SN2. Tertiary alkyl halides are made using the two-step SN1 mechanism that occurs via a carbocation intermediate, which is stabilized by...

Levels of Communication II: Organizational, Public, and Group Dynamics

3.0K
Effective communication is the foundation of a good organization. Communication is the lifeblood of an organization that connects the group with messages. In an organization, communication occurs in upward, downward, and horizontal lines. Downward communication travels from the administrative and senior levels to the staff through official channels such as manuals, rules and regulations, and organizational charts. Staff members initiate upward communication, which is addressed to executives and...

Self-Presentation: Self-Monitoring and Self-Handicapping

44.7K
People can go to great lengths to protect their self-image and present themselves in ways that they want others to see them. Sociologist Erving Goffman presented the idea that a person is like an actor on a stage. Calling his theory dramaturgy, Goffman believed that we use “impression management” to present ourselves to others as we hope to be perceived. Each situation is a new scene, and individuals perform different roles depending on who is present (Goffman, 1959). Think about...

Area of Science:

  • Public Health Policy
  • Commercial Determinants of Health

Background:

  • Manufacturers of harmful products employ strategies to influence health policy, termed commercial determinants of health.
  • While tobacco industry partnerships are unacceptable, ties with other industries are still pursued, potentially harming population health.
  • Limited understanding exists on how corporate influence operates, except for tobacco industry tactics.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To examine interactions between the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Coca-Cola Company.
  • To explore corporate influence, conflicts of interest, and lobbying tactics using internal communications.
  • To highlight the need for greater transparency and clearer policies on engaging with industries producing harmful products.

Main Methods:

  • Conducted 10 US Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests for communications between CDC employees and Coca-Cola.
  • Performed a thematic content analysis on the documents obtained through FOIA requests.

Main Results:

  • Three of 10 FOIA requests yielded 295 pages from 86 emails after some were rejected or pending.
  • The Coca-Cola Company sought access, lobbied, and aimed to shift attention away from sugar-sweetened beverages.
  • Emails demonstrated Coca-Cola's efforts to influence the CDC and the World Health Organization for corporate objectives.

Conclusions:

  • Corporate interests, exemplified by Coca-Cola's communications with the CDC, can influence public health practitioners.
  • The findings underscore the need for clearer policies to prevent partnerships with manufacturers of harmful products.
  • Greater transparency is required to understand and mitigate the impact of corporate influence on public health.
