Let's say I have a wireless device, one that works on radio frequencies, let's say it's a remote control car that operates on 100ghz for example's sake. If I were to try operating this car with its intended remote, but then have a friend broadcast similar frequencies, I would obviously get some...
Vincent racaniello's virology blog is a very helpful resource, and he has extensive courses on virology and influenza, was well as several podcasts.

Alright, so I am not missing any information? This is truly as amazing as I thought it was? this is a powerful illustration of the power of evolution. The amount of work required to write a book using the example I provided would be tremendous and in many cases impossible, but Mother Nature does...
I don't mean that they are palindromic. Here is the place where I am receiving the confusing information:
http://www.virology.ws/2009/05/02/influenza-virus-rna-translation-into-protein/
Overlapping reading frames in influenza viruses allow two proteins to be coded into the same RNA segment, but only by what appears to me as an enormous coincidence. the analogy I came up with is that overlapping reading frames are like taking a book, and moving every space one character to the...
I know this is old, but I asked because I was wondering if the nucleic acids could be made to fall out of the capsid if either the capsid or the nucleic acid lost its charge. Here's another question, are the molecules in the capsid willing to accept more electrons? if so, a negatively charged...
This, and similar banners seem to be everywhere recently, and it's not the adware on my computer, since I see them at school as well. Is anyone else being spied on as much as I am? because these things are everywhere and I'm getting the feeling that the two people who made this ad are the ones...
according to http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virus_(biology)
helical viruses keep their genetic material in place because of "interactions between the negatively charged nucleic acid and positive charges on the protein". Why do these two structures continue to be attached to each other? I would...
I'm interested with computers, with no formal education on them outside of the basics taught at middle school. The problem is that I really enjoy learning about head amazing machines, I visit the dump and scavenge old parts from old systems, I go through phases in which I attempt to learn an...
Quick question, adults often ask me what I want to do when I grow up, and then seem a bit dissapointed when I say I don't know. Should a 12 year old boy have an idea about what he wants to do with his life? What I don't tell people, is that I kinda want to be an engineer. What do you think about...
So maybe this should go under Philosophy, but I was thinking about this for a while and I need professional input. Read a 1950s science fiction novel. Compare it to modern science that either exists or is on the works. Humanoid robots that think for themselves, living in giant metal structures...
Define random. Name something in our universe that is truly random. Its hard for me to answer this question because I don't even know what random is. For example: when you roll dice, you can calculate the friction of the table, force Of the throw, which number is facing up when it's thrown...
