... miRNA molecule. This was not because more of the miRNA was made but because more of the precursor form of the functional molecule was processed to become functional. The functional miRNA molecule generated by the genetic variation also had different functional properties ...
... a "ligand" is attached to the zinc atoms. The organic ligand also serves as a tether to attach additional functional molecules that cause the dot to bind to specific ...
... is essentially the same that we use in our eyes for vision," said Weiss. "The molecule responds to light by making a change that can be harnessed ... on surfaces, we used a carefully designed 'tether' to isolate the functional molecules from one another and from the metal surface," said Weiss ...
