    Notes: [Auszug] Sir - In a recent News story about the sequencing of the Escherichia coli genome (Nature3&5,472; 1997) you said that "the unannotated Japanese sequence is a hybrid of more than one strain"; you also said "So far, however, only raw sequence data are available in the public database" (my italics ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Sir - A recent News story described a report which concludes that the increasing popularity of herbal medicine in the Western world is threatening its natural base, medicinal plants growing in the wild (Nature3S5,570; 1997). It also refers to Germany as being the largest consumer of these medicinal ...

    Notes: [Auszug] The question I am asked most frequently about Ca2+ is how such a simple messenger can regulate so many diverse cellular processes, such as fertilization, secretion, contraction, proliferation, neural signalling and learning. With much hand waving, I usually speculate that such diversity might be ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Were science to be judged on entertainment value alone, there is little doubt that the fastest route to the glittering prizes would be to work on fossil DNA. If you doubt that, take a look at the British tabloids of 9 March, where a report linking the DNA from a Palaeolithic tooth to a ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Since 1991, at least a dozen human genetic diseases have been shown to be caused by unstable expansions of tri-nucleotide repeats1 (Fig. 1, overleaf). The discovery of these expansions was a surprise because they had not been described in other organisms, but it led to a tendency to derive general ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Animals inhabit a sort of Garden of Eden. Everything they d& they do because they feel like it at the time. Their key motivation is excitement.

    Notes: [Auszug] Buprestid beetles of the genus Melanophila approach forest fires in large numbers, from distances of up to 50 km, because their larvae can only develop in freshly burnt wood1. Behavioural experiments have indicated that Melanophila do not use olfactory or auditory cues to detect forest fires2. ...

    Notes: [Auszug] [MUNICH] The European Space Agency (ESA) last week decided to re-fly all four satellites of its Cluster mission. The original mission was destroyed when the Ariane V launcher exploded on its maiden flight in June last year (see Nature 381, 541; 1996). Although the decision will strain ESA's ...
