This paper reports pedagogical experiences and educational techniques in the field of Mechanics of Structures (Mechanical Engineering degree), resorting to computational tools.Several aspects are addressed, covering CAD (Computer-Aided Design) modelling systems to CAE (Computer-Aided Engineering) solutions, in terms of analysis and validation of me
The ability to rapidly assemble and prototype cellular circuits is vital for biological research and its applications in biotechnology and medicine.The Mammalian ToolKit (MTK) is a Golden Gate-based ANISE ALL-ONE TOOTHPASTE cloning toolkit for fast, reproducible and versatile assembly of large DNA vectors and their implementation in mammalian model
It is well documented that influenza A viruses selectively package 8 distinct viral ribonucleoprotein complexes (vRNPs) into each virion; however, the role of host factors in genome assembly is not completely understood.To evaluate the significance of cellular factors in genome assembly, we generated a reporter virus carrying a tetracysteine tag in
Autophagy is necessary for the degradation of long-lasting proteins and nonfunctional Nightmare Before Christmas organelles, and is activated to promote cellular survival.However, overactivation of autophagy may deplete essential molecules and organelles responsible for cellular survival.Lifelong calorie restriction by 40% has been shown to increas
The gap between the social classes, especially between the higher classes and the TURMERIC GROUND lower social classes is one of the factors that cause satire to emerge.Satire shows its power by placing through social gaps, and as one of its ends it tries to reform the roles of social groups so as to decrease the gaps.Although satire is the apparen
