Chromosome Replication02:31

Chromosome Replication

10.5K
Before a cell can divide, it must accurately replicate all of its chromosomes, including the DNA and its associated histone and non-histone proteins.  This process begins at numerous origins of replication during the S phase of the cell cycle in each of a cell’s chromosomes simultaneously. Certain nucleotides can act as origins of replication, but these sequences are not well defined - especially in complex, multi-cellular, eukaryotic species. The length of DNA that spans an origin...

DNA Replication

DNA replication involves the separation of the two strands of the double helix, with each strand serving as a template from which the new complementary strand is copied.  After replication, each double-stranded DNA includes one parental or “old” strand and one “new” strand. This is known as semiconservative replication. The resulting DNA molecules have the same sequence and are divided equally into the two daughter cells.

Replication in Prokaryotes

27.6K
DNA replication has three main steps: initiation, elongation, and termination. Replication in prokaryotes begins when initiator proteins bind to the single origin of replication (ori) on the cell's circular chromosome. Replication then proceeds around the entire circle of the chromosome in each direction from the two replication forks, resulting in two DNA molecules.

The DNA Replication Fork

40.6K
An organism’s genome needs to be duplicated in an efficient and error-free manner for its growth and survival. The replication fork is a Y-shaped active region where two strands of DNA are separated and replicated continuously. The coupling of DNA unzipping and complementary strand synthesis is a characteristic feature of a replication fork.   Organisms with small circular DNA, such as E. coli, often have a single origin of replication; therefore, they have only two replication...

Summary
This summary is machine-generated.

This study demonstrates that working memory (WM) can process unconscious visual information. Even when stimuli are unseen, WM performance remains above chance, suggesting unconscious WM capabilities.

Area of Science:

  • Cognitive Psychology
  • Neuroscience
  • Perception

Background:

  • Previous research suggests working memory (WM) might process unconscious information, but conclusive evidence is lacking.
  • The existence of unconscious WM is a significant question in cognitive science.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To rigorously replicate and test the existence of unconscious working memory.
  • To investigate if working memory can operate on perceptual contents that are not consciously perceived.

Main Methods:

  • A large-scale, multisite replication of Soto et al.'s (2011) study using a visual discrimination task.
  • Participants (N=531) performed a task involving subliminal Gabor gratings with a 2-second delay.
  • Data collected under standardized conditions, including motivation and Perceptual Awareness Scale (PAS) reliability.

Main Results:

  • Above-chance working memory performance (.55 accuracy) was observed for stimuli reported as unseen.
  • A significant positive correlation was found between WM performance and cue detection sensitivity (r=.228).
  • A significant above-chance intercept (β₀=.521) in the regression of performance on sensitivity indicated unconscious WM contribution.

Conclusions:

  • Working memory can operate on unconscious perceptual representations.
  • Unconscious working memory performance is positively associated with perceptual sensitivity.
  • The study provides reliable and valid evidence for unconscious working memory operations.
