Defense mechanisms are rooted in Freud’s theory of personality.According to his model, the mind has three dueling forces: the id (unconscious and primitive urges for food, comfort, and sex), the ...

Enzyme mechanisms are the chemical transformations, and the steps within them, generated by enzymatic action on substrates. The mechanism of enzyme catalysis is similar in principle to other types ...

"These findings illuminate a critical mechanism that connects local synaptic activity to the broader gene expression changes necessary for learning and memory," said Mark Dell'Acqua, professor of ...

To achieve in planta β1,4-galactosylation, several trials have been undertaken in different systems with varying degrees of success, including the expression of the β1,4-galactosyltransferase from ...

Figure 1 Mechanisms of pathogen avoidance. A variety of comprehensive mechanisms are in place to regulate pathogens avoidance, which include those caused by the alteration of aerotaxis, intestinal ...

A catalytic mechanism is the sequence of elementary reactions by which a catalytic reaction proceeds. The behaviour of nanoconfined water can be very different from that of the bulk and is ...
