Synthetic biochemistry seeks to engineer complex metabolic pathways for chemical conversions outside the constraints of the cell. Establishment of effective and flexible cell-free systems requires the ...

Researchers at the Centre for Genomic Regulation (CRG) and Imperial College London have found a switch that regulates the activity of a gene that causes diabetes. The findings, published in Nature ...

Rheostat Therapeutics reeled in a $23 million series A round to develop treatments for neurodegenerative and rare diseases by targeting autophagy, the cell’s garbage disposal. The new capital will ...

I think poteniometers are very similar to rheostats, and the only rheostat in the Jameco catelog is $23, so I was wondering if I could use a $3 5 watt potentiometer instead for controlling voltage to ...

Although drugs that target the brain's serotonin system are in wide use for treating depression, the basic biological mechanism by which they help alleviate symptoms is poorly understood. Now, new ...

Rheostat Therapeutics, a young biotech firm focused on treatments for neurodegeneration, cognition, and rare diseases, secured $23 million in its first formal round of funding. Rheostat is developing ...

BH3-only proteins (e.g. BID, BIM and PUMA) promote MOM integration of BAX/BAK, leading to MOMP, which typically commits the cell to death. The cytoprotective activity of BCL-XL is exerted through ...

Power resistors, rheostats (variable resistors), and other electrical loads are useful for testing power supplies and regulators. Though functionally equivalent to a mechanical rheostat, electronic ...
