Summary
This article corrects citation errors in a previously published paper. The corrections involve references for replacing green fluorescent protein (GFP) with a fluorescent timer (FT).
Area of Science:
- Biochemistry
- Molecular Biology
- Genetics
Context:
- Previous publication contained citation errors.
- Corrections impact specific results section on screening for gp61 mimotopes.
- Ensures accurate attribution for fluorescent timer (FT) usage.
Purpose:
- To correct citation inaccuracies in a published scientific article.
- To ensure the correct references are associated with the use of fluorescent timers (FT).
- To provide accurate scientific record for the study on gp61 mimotopes.
Summary:
- The article details corrections to citation errors found in a previous publication.
- Specifically, reference 23 was cited incorrectly, and two references were missing.
- These corrections pertain to the use of a fluorescent timer (FT) instead of green fluorescent protein (GFP).
Impact:
- Ensures the integrity and accuracy of the scientific record.
- Provides correct attribution for the methodology involving fluorescent timers.
- Facilitates proper citation and verification of research findings by the scientific community.

02:20Milgram's Obedience to Authority
7.2K
Obedience to authority is classically demonstrated in a more famous series of social psychology experiments performed by Stanley Milgram. He was a social psychology professor at Yale who was influenced by the trial of Adolf Eichmann, a Nazi war criminal. Eichmann’s defense for the atrocities he committed was that he was “just following orders.”

01:15Distance Corrections
285
To achieve precise distance measurements, especially in surveying and construction, certain corrections must be applied to account for potential sources of error like the standardization errors, temperature variations, and slope adjustments.Standardization error emerges when measurement equipment undergoes changes, such as wear, repairs, or weather impacts. To address this, surveyors compare the equipment’s readings to a standard. This process identifies any deviation that might lead to...

01:20Power Factor Correction
515
The power transmission to a factory involves the transfer of apparent power, a combination of active and reactive power. The power factor measures how effectively electrical power is converted into useful work output. The ratio of the real power (KW) that does the work to the apparent power (KVA) supplied to the circuit.

01:31Internal Receptors
74.4K
Many cellular signals are hydrophilic and therefore cannot pass through the plasma membrane. However, small or hydrophobic signaling molecules can cross the hydrophobic core of the plasma membrane and bind to internal, or intracellular, receptors that reside within the cell. Many mammalian steroid hormones use this mechanism of cell signaling, as does nitric oxide (NO) gas.

01:28Types of Receptors: Cell Surface Receptors
26.9K
Cell-surface receptors, also known as transmembrane receptors, are cell surface, membrane-anchored (integral) proteins that bind to external ligand molecules. This type of receptor spans the plasma membrane and performs signal transduction, converting an extracellular signal into an intracellular signal. Ligands that interact with cell-surface receptors do not have to enter the cell that they affect. Cell-surface receptors are also called cell-specific proteins or markers because they are...
