professorr Vasily M. Studitsky and his colleagues found that the thread can be repaired without complete unwinding of DNA oils The highly conserved histones play an important role in this process as changes in their structure are rejected by natural selection.

and then add a cap structure to its end to ensure it doesn get destroyed by the cellnd to ensure that it can be translated into protein.

While researchers have known the atomic structures of the protein that coats the VIRAL RNA, there are no data on protein L atomic structure.

#Nanotech transforms cotton fibers into modern marvel Marcia Silva da Pinto, postdoctoral researcher, works on growing metal organic frameworks onto cotton samples to create a filtration system capable of capturing toxic gas,

as Juan Hinestroza looks on. Juan Hinestroza and his students live in a cotton-soft nano world,

where they create clothing that kills bacteria, conducts electricity, wards off malaria, captures harmful gas and weaves transistors into shirts and dresses. otton is one of the most fascinating and misunderstood materials,

said Hinestroza, associate professor of fiber science, who directs the Textiles Nanotechnology Laboratory at Cornell. n a nanoscale world

and that is our world we can control cellulose-based materials one atom at a time. he Hinestroza group has turned cotton fibers into electronic components such as transistors and thermistors,

so instead of adding electronics to fabrics, he converts the fabric into an electronic component. reating transistors

and other components using cotton fibers brings a new perspective to the seamless integration of electronics

and textiles, enabling the creation of unique wearable electronic devices, Hinestroza said. Taking advantage of cotton irregular topography, Hinestroza and his students added conformal coatings of gold nanoparticles,

as well as semiconductive and conductive polymers to tailor the behavior of natural cotton fibers. he layers were so thin that the flexibility of the cotton fibers is preserved always,

Hinestroza said, ibers are everywhere from your underwear, pajamas, toothbrushes, tires, shoes, car seats, air filtration systems and even your clothes. bbey Liebman 0 created a dress using conductive cotton threads capable of charging an iphone.

With ultrathin solar panels for trim and a USB charger tucked into the waist, the Southwest-inspired garment captured enough sunshine to charge cell phones

and other handheld devices allowing the wearer to stay plugged in. The technology may be embedded into shirts to measure heart rate

or analyze sweat, sewn into pillows to monitor brain signals or applied to interactive textiles with heating and cooling capabilities. revious technologies have achieved similar functionalities,

but those fibers became rigid or heavy, unlike our yarns, which are friendly to further processing, such as weaving, sewing and knitting,

Hinestroza said. Synthesizing nanoparticles and attaching them to cotton not only creates color on fiber surfaces without the use of dyes,

but the new surfaces can efficiently kill 99.9 percent of bacteria, which could help in warding colds, flu and other diseases.

Two of Hinestroza students created a hooded bodysuit embedded with insecticides using metal organic framework molecules,

or MOFS to fend off malarial mosquitoes. Malaria kills more than 600,000 people annually in Africa. While insecticide-treated nets are common in African homes

the antimalarial garment can be worn during the day to provide extra protection and does not dissipate like skin-based repellants.

Other students have used MOFS to create a mask and hood capable of trapping toxic gases in a selective manner.

MOFS, which are clustered crystalline compounds, can be manipulated at the nano level to build nanoscale cages that are the exact same size as the gas they are trying to capture. e wanted to harness the power of these molecules to absorb gases

and incorporate these MOFS into fibers, which allows us to make very efficient filtration systems,

Hinestroza always looks for new ways to employ cotton as a canvas for creating infinite modern uses. e want to transform traditional natural fibers into true engineering materials that are multifunctional

but have it remain flexible and as comfortable as a t-shirt or an old pair of jeans. c

Google Wallet Since 2011as of now, the most prevailing mobile payment system is the Google Wallet.

Where the developers themselves agree that many issues still exist in the system design of Google Wallet,

Google wallet is coming down to its fourth year almost since its emergence in the industry.

And no doubt, Google Wallet is perhaps an amazingly speedy mobile payment method for those who have come to terms with it.

#These smart glasses know when you need a nap From heart sensors to concussion trackers,

then Japanese eyewear manufacturer Jins know more about you than you Do its Jins Meme smart glasses use bio-sensing technology to detect tiny changes in eye and head movement.

but the idea behind these smart glasses is to provide a more accurate assessment of your level of focusf that's something you (or an employer!)

I recently had a chance to check out the Jins Meme glasses and was impressed by the attention given to style.

The glasses have a six-axis sensor along both earpieces, as well as EOG electrodes in the base of the glass frame, the nose bridge,

Despite all this tech, the glasses are actually pretty light and slim. It's sort of hard to tell that they're even smart glasses point that seems to have been lost on Google glass.

The information gathered by the sensors seemed detailed and accurate. With the free smartphone app,

The Jins Meme glasses are a cool bit of technology an innovative, if narrowly focused, rethinking of the smart glasses concept.

While we don't know exactly how accurate the collected data is, it will be interesting to see what kind of functionality third-party developers will come up with.
