modification

These modifications can make the red blood cells stick to the walls of tiny blood vessels in the brain.

"We have found nearly 7,000 genes that have the alternative transcription initiation within the coding sequences. These alternative transcription initiation sites tend to be tissue-specific and associated with histone modifications," Ma said.

"This is a common modification we see in biology. However, we found that HGF loses its physiological activity when it becomes nitrated, and this phenomenon accumulates with age."

Rohde, Long and their colleagues are exploring variants of this metal hydride MOF to see what other gases they can adsorb, and also modifications that will allow such materials to adsorb even more CO2.

“If you assume that all home modifications are effective, you’re creating a false sense of security,” she said.
