The best way to harmonize the clocks, Leibniz argued, would be to construct them with a common, functional mechanism so that they both kept the same time; this, surely, would be expected of a supremely good God. (firstthings.com)
However, the work now published in PlosPathogens, showed that even though there are more than 60 million years of evolutive divergence between the human Kaposi sarcoma herpesvirus and its rodent homologue, LANA's functional mechanisms are preserved. (sciencedaily.com)
The research groups of Lars Schäfer and Enrica Bordignon combined detailed computer simulations with spectroscopic experiments to shed light on the functional mechanism of an ABC exporter in atomic detail. (sciencedaily.com)
