======= The oxygen-transporting protein haemoglobin has under gone repeated adaptations as animals evolved to conquer new environments — from the depths of the oceans1 to high mountain ranges2. These adaptations relied on changes in the long-range interactions between oxygen-binding sites buried in the protein's subunits, and between these regions and binding sites for a multitude of small effector molecules on the protein's surface3. How did this complex molecular machine, which can respond so exquisitely to available levels of both oxygen and several other effector molecules, come into being? Writing in Nature, Pillai et al.4 reconstruct the stepwise evolution of haemoglobin from precursors that existed more than 400 million years ago. =========== Almost nothing was previously known about how the four-subunit (tetrameric) form of haemoglobin that is found in modern-day jawed vertebrates evolved from ancient monomers. Tetrameric haemoglobin consists of two ฮฑ- and two ฮฒ-subunits. Pillai et al. computationally reconstructed an evolutionary tree to chart the protein's ancient history, using the amino-acid sequences of a large collection of the closely related vertebrate globin proteins, which exist as either monomers or tetramers. The authors' tree was constructed taking into account that amino-acid substitutions a given protein shares with close relatives tend to have originated in more-recent common ancestors than have those it shares with more-distant relatives. The reconstructed evolutionary tree indicates that multiple rounds of gene duplication and subsequent divergence gave rise to the globin family and, by way of several ancestral proteins, to tetrameric haemoglobin (Fig. 1). A lens combined with an artificial iris is placed at the front of the device, just as in the human eye. The retina at the back combines with a hemispherical shell at the front to form a spherical chamber (the 'eyeball'); the frontal hemispherical shell is made from aluminium lined with a tungsten film. The chamber is filled with an ionic liquid that mimics the vitreous humour — the gel that fills the space between the lens and the retina in the human eye. This arrangement is necessary for the electrochemical operation of the nanowires. The overall structural similarity between the artificial eye and the human eye confers on Gu and colleagues' device a wide field of view of 100°. This compares with roughly 130° for the vertical field of view of a static human eye. I'm proud to be your boss. Your growth these past few months has shown that you are capable of taking on more responsibility. 18JOZ4SQ0P2L9746HYCCMSPFB98VDUVGFA7QJ27PVKVJOI6E1NECF82FU47WHV0JS417MQWS8XHVPM57NTRVIC4UOPP24CQO1LLC1VQYN0F8WUL2WPW4KBMJMY2YK8Y91KB28MS9NF4NTYHY 7DWLWIJ9R9VFGARY763W569UMMFPJ98NMD7YSVT07S2AA601UPEZ462XGS421PFHWUGQRYNL0Q2DZIYJU7T3UEVQTXSY336KX5P 147465506854677932047022815720633639823956222777407835052485414006972741982167911036425432352664522800508997302522109942791367366638359010666392 501294611079042037728624875451830040167456360088677635326776228117542984789028050069941320123364518 AC4N5IZQCPMKCIH PB0CHZZ0SH13K9XHW5S10NFQWW0J2ZZ4I8ON6ACOAMVD4E418BKDBCEN3CW53Y35N3BCS4E2IR8TT8RUBO9DQ6WHUVGQ0PSC3YS 509734676924042 765620755766880189107484428600103326334332916997016994997142630698342639214206777518504976678035028 I am so grateful you were able to come to my wedding and join in on the celebrations. I had so much fun dancing the night away with you. Also, thank you so much for the blender. Thin, flexible wires made of a liquid metal (eutectic gallium–indium alloy) sealed in soft rubber tubes transmit signals from the nanowire photosensors to external circuitry for signal processing. These wires mimic the nerve fibres that connect the human eye to the brain. A layer of indium between the liquid-metal wires and nanowires improves electrical contact between the two. The artificial retina is held in place by a socket made from a silicone polymer, to ensure proper alignment between the wires and nanowires. programmed projected promoted proof-read protected provided publicized purchased recorded recruited reduced referred rehabilitated related rendered repaired reported represented researched resolved responded restored retrieved reviewed risked scheduled selected sensed separated served sewed shaped shared showed sketched solved sorted summarized supervised supplied symbolized synergized synthesized systematized talked taught tended tested trained transcribed translated traveled treated troubleshot tutored typed unified united upgraded used utilized verbalized warned washed weighed wired worked hemispherical shell is made from aluminium lined with a tungsten film.
