NINDS Supports Outstanding Projects Using Invertebrate Model Systems The mission of NINDS is to seek fundamental knowledge about the brain and nervous system, and to use that knowledge to reduce the burden of neurological disease. We frequently receive questions about whether NINDS prefers one animal model over another. NINDS mission is impartial to the model system employed, but is advanced by the neuroscientific impact of each research project. We would not presume to instruct investigators on what model to employ to answer the question they are most passionate about pursuing. Rather, we have great respect for the peer review system, where each scientist has the opportunity to make his or her case to a review committee. Given constrained resources over the past 12 years, we realize that the peer review process has become taxed, but we feel that it remains the best and most democratic system in the world. Neuroscience applicants using invertebrate model systems have successfully competed for NINDS grant funding in peer review in recent years.

DNA, genes and chromosomes University of Leicester

DNA DNA (or deoxyribonucleic acid) is the molecule that carries the genetic information in all cellular forms of life and some viruses. It belongs to a class of molecules called the nucleic acids, which are polynucleotides - that is, long chains of nucleotides. Each nucleotide consists of three components: The backbone of the polynucleotide is a chain of sugar and phosphate molecules. Each of the sugar groups in this sugar-phosphate backbone is linked to one of the four nitrogenous bases. Strand of polynucleotides DNA's ability to store - and transmit - information lies in the fact that it consists of two polynucleotide strands that twist around each other to form a double-stranded helix. The bases link across the two strands in a specific manner using hydrogen bonds: cytosine (C) pairs with guanine (G), and adenine (A) pairs with thymine (T). Double strand of polynucleotides The double helix of the complete DNA molecule resembles a spiral staircase, with two sugar phosphate backbones and the paired bases in the centre of the helix. This structure explains two of the most important properties of the molecule. First, it can be copied or 'replicated', as each strand can act as a template for the … Continue reading →
