Amino acid: Any of a class of 20 molecules that are combined to form proteins in living things.

    http://www.genetics.wustl.edu/
    Research Interests in the Department
    Geneticists seek to understand how genes are inherited, modified, and expressed. Geneticists have been remarkably successful in deciphering the genetic code and in providing a clear picture of the nature of the gene, but much remains to be learned about fundamental genetic mechanisms. How is it that only the appropriate genes are turned on in a particular cell type? How do genes direct cells to have different fates, ultimately resulting in the development organism with many different cell types? How does the cell choreograph the events of cell division so that only one copy of each gene is passed on to the next generation? By what processes are genes altered to provide the raw material for evolution? How do multiple genes contribute to complex phenotypes, such as human disease? The possibility of finding answers to such fundamental questions makes genetics one of the most exciting fields of biology. We are interested in studying fundamental genetic mechanisms, as well as applying this knowledge to human biology. Laboratories in the Genetics Department are pursuing answers to these and other important questions using a variety of model organisms including, yeast ( S. cerevisiae

    Evolution Gets a Boost: No Cost for Complexity
    By Brandon Keim Categories: Evolution Genetics
    Even as creatures become complex, evolution doesn't get any harder. The findings, published yesterday in Nature , shed doubt on a creationist criticism of evolution: that adaptation must rapidly slow as creatures grow more complicated, making them less able to adapt to changing conditions.

    Philip Morris, Part II: There Is No GM Tobacco In Your Marlboros
    By Alexis Madrigal Categories: Genetics In the first half of our conversation, Philip Morris spokesman David Sutton spoke broadly about the company's tobacco research efforts. When we returned to the topic of genetically modified tobacco, Sutton stressed that Philip Morris only uses conventionally grown tobacco, i.e. they don't use GM plants, in their commercial production procedures. Referring to the recent NC State GM tobacco research "It's a pure research environment over there, and then way over on the other side, you've got how we make our products," said Sutton. That's quite an about face from Philip Morris' precise answers to the GM tobacco question from back in 1998. Then, the company was an unabashed supporter of genetic engineering, at least in the US, where it was perceived public support was stronger. The internal talking points document linked above provides two answers to the same questionDo you use genetically modified tobacco in your cigarettes?excerpted with emphasis added below.

      Students will understand the following:
      Because of their identical genetic makeup, identical twins who have been raised separately are ideal subjects for experiments that evaluate the effects of genes versus the effects of environment on human personality development. Materials No special materials needed Procedures nature you mean hereditary genetic makeup and that by nurture you mean the things that happen to a person after birth, including treatment by parents, peers, community, and society. Let students know that another name for the nature-nurture controversy is the heredity-versus-environment controversy. Then encourage students to express their views on the issue and give reasons for their views. Ask students if they can think of a way to construct an experiment, in a scientifically valid way, that will shed light on the controversy they have been discussing. Guide the discussion toward twin studies, or the study of pairs of identical twins that have been raised apart.
