DNAi location:
Chronicle>Threat of the Unfit>threats
This slide was used by Harry Laughlin to illustrate feeblemindeness. Eugenicists reacted to the problem of mental illness and sought to lessen the threat of the "unfit" to the United States.

"Fossil Virus" (The Human Body-Kinetic City)

The Fossil Virus (Omega Pack) is a learning module centered on the adaptation and evolution; it is a part of the Kinetic City-Mission to Vearth site (see description below). In general this module is concerned with how changes in the environment can affect the animals that live there. This learning object may be used as reinforcement of learning objectives accomplished in the classroom. The Fossil Virus module is equipped with a computer simulation mind game, creative writing exercises for independent study, and art-centered exercises, as well as lesson plans for hands on games and activities designed for a group. The focus of the activities is evolution and the features of an animal that helps the animal survive in its environment. Certain features explored are the giraffes neck, polar bears fir, and a birds beak. KINETIC CITY DESCRIPTION: "Kinetic City" (www.kineticcity.com) is a fun, Web-based after-school science club for kids, ages 8 through 11. It combines exciting online animations and activities with boxes of hands-on science experiments. Children earn "Kinetic City" power points and collect stickers as they complete missions and learn standards-based science content. Here's how it works: The "Kinetic City" super crew (Keisha, Curtis, Megan and Max) needs the help of Earth kids to save their planet Vearth, from the science-distorting computer virus Deep Delete. Each of Deep Delete's 60 hideous strains attacks a different area of science with disastrous consequences. After each attack, teams of Earth kids fight back by viewing a short online animation describing the situation on Vearth; performing a series of activities to re-learn the lost science and going on a mission to Vearth during which they answer science questions and gobble up Deep Delete viruses. Their scores appear on their own Kinetic City Club Web page. "Kinetic City" is produced by the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS), with a grant from the National Science Foundation. AAAS writes the "Project 2061 Benchmarks for Science Literacy," which forms the basis of most state science standards.

"Sleuron Virus" (Human Learning - Kinetic City)

The "Sleuron virus module" focuses on learning, practicing, and the ability to get better at things. Among the concepts covered are motor skills (such as reaction time), the human brain, short term memory, and the ability to give and receive accurate instructions. This learning object may be used as reinforcement of learning objectives accomplished in the classroom. The Sleuron Virus module is equipped with a computer-based simulation mind game, creative writing exercise for independent study, and art-centered exercises, as well as lesson plans hands on games and activities designed for a group.

14-3-3 Proteins: A Number of Functions for a Numbered Protein

Signal transduction events can be regulated both by posttranslational modifications and by protein-protein interactions. 14-3-3 proteins are critically involved in both of these processes. The 14-3-3s, originally catalogued as small, abundant brain proteins, are expressed as multiple isoforms in all eukaryotic cells and are now known to recognize and to bind to distinct phosphoserine or phosphothreonine motifs on target proteins. Their binding partners include key proteins involved in metabolism, cell cycle control, the DNA damage response, transcription, protein synthesis, and apoptosis. This STKE Review with 2 figures, 1 interactive molecular structure, and 118 references describes 14-3-3 proteins and highlights how these simple proteins have profound effects on the regulation of a vast number of cellular events.
