Protein Complexes with Interchangeable Parts01:57

Protein Complexes with Interchangeable Parts

2.7K
Groups of proteins may form a complex where each protein in this complex has a different role in the overall execution of the complex’s function. Often some of the proteins in the complex can be replaced by a closely related variant to give a complex that contains many of the same components yet is functionally distinct.
The SCF ubiquitin ligase is a protein complex of five individual proteins. This complex attaches ubiquitin to other target proteins to mark them for degradation. In order...

Combinatorial Gene Control02:33

Combinatorial Gene Control

8.7K
Combinatorial gene control is the synergistic action of several transcriptional factors to regulate the expression of a single gene. The absence of one or more of these factors may lead to a significant difference in the level of gene expression or repression.
The expression of more than 30,000 genes is controlled by approximately 2000-3000 transcription factors. This is possible because a single transcription factor can recognize more than one regulatory sequence. The specificity in gene...

Types of Selection01:46

Types of Selection

42.7K
Natural selection influences the frequencies of particular alleles and phenotypes within populations in several different ways. Primarily, natural selection can be directional, stabilizing, or disruptive. Directional selection favors one extreme trait and shifts the population towards that phenotype while selecting against individuals displaying alternate traits. Stabilizing selection favors an intermediate trait with a narrow range of variation. Deviation from the optimal phenotype towards an...

Dose-Response Relationship: Selectivity and Specificity01:25

Dose-Response Relationship: Selectivity and Specificity

8.9K
Drugs exert their therapeutic effects by interacting with receptors, enzymes, or ion channels that are present throughout the human body. The strength and duration of the interaction between a drug and its target receptor are characterized by the selectivity and specificity of the drug. Selectivity refers to a drug's strong preference for its intended target over other targets. For instance, isoprenaline, a non-selective β-adrenergic agonist, interacts with both β1- and...

Anaphase Promoting Complex00:50

Anaphase Promoting Complex

3.0K
The stepwise destruction of specific proteins is necessary for the progression and completion of the cell cycle. Such proteins are ubiquitinated by ubiquitin ligases and then subsequently destroyed by the proteasome. The SCF (Skp1/Cullin/F-box) and the anaphase-promoting complex (APC) are two important ubiquitin ligases involved in cell cycle progression. While SCF is active throughout the cell cycle, APC gets activated during metaphase to anaphase transition. Cdc20 or Cdh1 binds to APC and...

Positive Regulator Molecules02:39

Positive Regulator Molecules

5.8K
Mitotic cell division results in daughter cells that exactly resemble the parent cell. However, errors in the DNA replication or distribution of genetic material may lead to genetic mutations that may be passed down to every new cell formed from the resulting abnormal cell. Propagation of such mutant cells is restricted through checkpoint mechanisms present at different stages of the cell cycle. These checkpoints involve regulator molecules that either promote or demote cell cycle events.

Area of Science:

  • Psychology
  • Cognitive Science
  • Behavioral Science

Background:

  • Relational Frame Theory (RFT) posits that Cfunc stimuli select stimulus properties for transformation via derived stimulus relations.
  • Empirical evidence for the selective action of Cfunc control has been lacking.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To provide an analysis of the requirements for demonstrating selective Cfunc control.
  • To experimentally demonstrate that Cfunc stimuli can select which functions transform via derived stimulus relations.

Main Methods:

  • Developed a virtual car racing paradigm with two components: a sample racecar screen and a car race screen.
  • Established two symbols as Crels (same, different) and two as Cfuncs (speed, direction).
  • Engineered symbols to communicate performance comparisons between real racecars and a sample racecar.

Main Results:

  • The experiments successfully demonstrated that Cfunc stimuli can select specific functions for transformation within derived stimulus relations.
  • This provides the first empirical evidence for the selective action of Cfunc control.

Conclusions:

  • The findings confirm a central component of Relational Frame Theory regarding Cfunc stimulus control.
  • This research has implications for understanding relational responding in complex environments and for applied behavioral interventions.
