Aug 19	comment	Disadvantages of unihemispheric sleep I would assume that to give your brain the rest it needs you would have to spend double the time sleeping when resting one hemisphere at a time. For humans at lest that would be kind of disastrous.
Aug 16	comment	Is “computational biology” different from “bioinformatics”? Would bioinformatics not be more about the use of tools to solve statistical problems than the creation of such tools?
Aug 6	answered	Exactly which amino acids are phosphorylated in higher plants during state transitions?

Aug 6	comment	How are synaptic vesicles brought to the synapse? Thanks for the link, looks like it's Rab GTPases that attach them to microtubules.

Jun 18	comment	What happens when cells in your body run out of telomeres? A figure in the book taken from 6th generation telomerase deficient mice was taken from: Cell, Blasco, M. A., ‘Telomere shortening and tumor formation by mouse cells lacking telomerase RNA’, 91, pp. 25–34

May 30	comment	Is it possible for any animals today to have more than one brain? I would say that the auxiliary brains mentioned in the linked article are probably more like a distributed brain than multiple brains. Parts of the human autonomic nervous system, such as the sinoatrial node (that regulates heart rate) are similar. I guess it depends largely on what exactly constitutes a brain, which is something I can't answer.

May 22	accepted	Can protein structure be determined by X-Ray Diffraction in a single image?
Apr 22	comment	Regulation of chromatin structure AFAIK chromatin would not assume the most compact structure without topoisomerase activity.
Apr 17	comment	How is the blood volume of a living organism measured without killing it? I didn't downvote your answer, I'm not really in much of a position to judge it, but it does seem to be unnecessarily complicated.
