Fungal prion-Prions of yeast-[PSI+] and [URE3] In 1965, Brian Cox, a geneticist working with the yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae, described a genetic trait (termed [PSI+]) with an unusual pattern of inheritance. The initial discovery of [PSI+] was made in a strain auxotrophic for adenine due to a nonsense mutation. Desp... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Fungal prion-Prions of yeast-When exposed to certain adverse conditions, in some genetic backgrounds [PSI+] cells actually fare better than their prion-free siblings; this finding suggests that the ability to adopt a [PSI+] prion form may result from positive evolutionary selection. It has been speculated that the abil... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Fungal prion-Prions of yeast-[PIN+] / [RNQ+] The term [PIN+] was coined by Liebman and colleagues from Psi-INducibility, to describe a genetic requirement for the formation of the [PSI+] prion. They showed that [PIN+] was required for the induction of most variants of the [PSI+] prion. Later they identified [PIN+] as t... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
Fungal prion-Epigenetics-Prions act as an alternative form of non-Mendelian, phenotypic inheritance due to their self-templating ability. This makes prions a metastable, dominant mechanism for inheritance that relies solely on the conformation of the protein. Many proteins containing prion domains play a role in gene e... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |

N conjecture-N conjecture-In number theory the n conjecture is a conjecture stated by Browkin & Brzeziński (1994) as a generalization of the abc conjecture to more than three integers. | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
N conjecture-Formulations-Given n≥3 , let a1,a2,...,an∈Z satisfy three conditions: (i) gcd (a1,a2,...,an)=1 (ii) a1+a2+...+an=0 (iii) no proper subsum of a1,a2,...,an equals 0 First formulation The n conjecture states that for every ε>0 , there is a constant C , depending on n and ε , such that: max rad (|a1... | milkshake721/2.1M-wiki-STEM |
