| molecular biology building iowa state: The Campus as a Work of Art Thomas A. Gaines, 1991-09-30 This volume, for the first time, presents the total physical world of the college campus as a bona fide art form. It analyzes the aesthetic elements involved in the spawning and savaging of college grounds. The ideal campus design, once defined, is held up to over 100 campuses throughout the United States, and the relative artistic merit of each evaluated. Both the best and the worst in campus design are critically observed from the standpoint of urban space, architectural quality, landscape, and overall appeal. Variables such as regional differences, historical perspective, expansion, and visual focus also figure in the evaluation. A list of the fifty most artistically successful campuses in the country concludes this highly readable and yet academically valid work exploring a discrete artistic discipline. |
| molecular biology building iowa state: Principles of Protein Structure Ivet Bahar, Ken A. Dill, Hue-Sun Chan, Robert L. Jernigan, 2017-02-09 Protein Actions: Principles and Modeling is aimed at graduates, advanced undergraduates, and any professional who seeks an introduction to the biological, chemical, and physical properties of proteins. Broadly accessible to biophysicists and biochemists, it will be particularly useful to student and professional structural biologists and molecular biophysicists, bioinformaticians and computational biologists, biological chemists (particularly drug designers) and molecular bioengineers. The book begins by introducing the basic principles of protein structure and function. Some readers will be familiar with aspects of this, but the authors build up a more quantitative approach than their competitors. Emphasizing concepts and theory rather than experimental techniques, the book shows how proteins can be analyzed using the disciplines of elementary statistical mechanics, energetics, and kinetics. These chapters illuminate how proteins attain biologically active states and the properties of those states. The book ends with a synopsis the roles of computational biology and bioinformatics in protein science. |

| molecular biology building iowa state: Probing Photosynthesis Mohammad Yunus, Uday Pathre, Prasanna Mohanty, 2014-04-21 A thorough understanding of the mechanisms of photosynthesis, regulation of structure and function and the adaptive strategies of oxygenic photosynthetic organisms is central to any effort directed at improving crop productivity and providing sustainable agriculture. Photosynthesis is the most widely researched topic in plant science. Further probing of its mechanisms, regulation and adaptation, employing a variety of modern tools and techniques, is imperative to gain a better insight of this very intricate process. Unravelling the cause of stress impairments and stress tolerance in plants would help in ensuring the optimum production of food, fibres and fuels. Probing Photosynthesis represents the state-of-the-art on photosynthesis and provides details of experimental approaches that have been adopted to understand the complex regulatory and adaptive processes. Its twenty seven chapters have been divided into four sections: Evolution, structure and function; Biodiversity metabolism and regulation; Stress and adaptations; and Techniques. With contributions from leading subject experts from Australia, Canada, France, Germnay, India, Israel, Japan, Sweden, Switzerland, the UK and USA, this comprehensive treatise shall interest researchers and students from all disciplines of plant science and provide a useful reference for courses in plant biochemistry, crop physiology, plant biotechnology and environmental botany. |

| molecular biology building iowa state: Arboviruses Nikos Vasilakis, Duane J. Gubler, 2016 Arthropod-borne viruses (arboviruses) are the causative agents of significant morbidity and mortality among humans and domestic animals globally. They are maintained in complex biological life cycles, involving a primary vertebrate host and a primary arthropod vector. While all known arboviruses are zoonotic pathogens, their emergence as human pathogens is associated with dramatic increases of human population growth leading to uncontrolled urbanization, changes in land and water use, changes in agricultural practices, new irrigation systems and deforestation. This book brings together a panel of expert arbovirologists to produce a timely review of the rapidly expanding arbovirus research literature. In addition authors identify the most pressing questions that remain to be answered, thus providing a stimulus for future research. Topics include: taxonomy, genome organization, virus-host and virus-vector interactions, evolutionary history, role of vertical transmission in arbovirus maintenance and evolution, epidemiology, arbovirus replication, pathogenesis, arbovirus diagnostics and control, including vaccines, novel anti-viral drugs, RNA interference and genetically modified vectors. Essential reading for every arbovirologist and highly recommended for all virologists and public health officials.

| molecular biology building iowa state: Plant Signaling Peptides Helen R. Irving, Chris Gehring, 2012-06-01 Plants have evolved with a complex array of signaling molecules to facilitate their growth and development and their interactions with the environment. A vast number of different peptide molecules form an important but until recently often overlooked component amongst these signaling molecules. Plant peptide signals are involved in regulating meristem growth and organogenesis, modulating plant growth and homeostatic responses. They also have important roles as signals of imminent danger or pathogen attack. This volume focuses on the roles of various peptide signaling molecules in development, defence and homeostasis. As it is likely that further plant peptide signaling molecules remain to be discovered, the last section takes a practical look at methods to identify new peptides and characterise their functions. |

| molecular biology building iowa state: Vitamin A and the Immune Function Chris Kjolhede, William R. Beisel, 1996 In Vitamin A and the Immune Function, individuals representing a spectrum of disciplines elucidate the relationship between vitamin A and immune function. Through this range of perspectives, the contributors, speakers at the Symposium on the Relationship Between Vitamin A and Immune Function, offer a useful, corrective lens for a subject often viewed simplistically within a single area of study in which few books cover the topic exclusively. The goal of the symposium and this volume is to review what is known about the the relationship between a specific micronutrient and a complex physiologic process from many experts’points of view and to promote discussion and speculation on basic mechanisms accounting for the interaction. Vitamin A and the Immune Function is an effort to share with many readers the collective thoughts of those in attendance and to provoke further thought on this important topic. The speakers, in this volume as authors, discuss what is known about the vitamin A/immune response interaction followed by discussions which probe at what is still unknown. The authors are experts from several disciplines, including biochemistry, nutrition, epidemiology, pediatrics, infectious diseases, and public health. Participants, who were encouraged to join in the discussion periods to raise questions and contribute ideas, broadened the range of disciplines represented to include international health, nutrition, and development. This book captures the symposium's energy and will stimulate researchers and students to consider the unanswered questions. The unique aspect of this book is the interdisciplinary approach to the relationship between vitamin A and immune function. Parochial perspectives on this topic have often left the logical mind with gnawing questions kindled by findings in other fields of research. The inquisitive researcher may be most incited by the section in this book presented by the experts from outside their primary field of interest. Vitamin A and the Immune Function may raise more questions for many readers than it answers but that is precisely its primary benefit. |
