6.5 Conformational changes upon protein–DNA interactions During binding, both the protein and the DNA can alter their conformation. In the case of proteins, this conformational change can involve small changes in side-chain location, but can also involve local refolding. These changes upon binding of specific DNA sequences serve to facilitate the interaction and also to enhance the binding of other proteins, such as when dimerization of two proteins occurs at a single recognition site. Changes such as these can be the basis of cooperative binding e

2.4 Bar charts and frequency diagrams Pie charts are useful for showing proportions, but different types of chart have to be used for representing other kinds of data. A number of these charts are described in this section. The most well known is the bar chart. A bar chart can be seen below. The length of each bar represents the diameter of the planet. Among other things, the chart shows that the diameter of the Earth is about 13 000 km. The bars on a bar chart are usually drawn not touching one another. Furthe
A Brief History of Gentrification in Vancouver
October 7, 2013 - Gentrification is one of the hot topics in contemporary Vancouver, but is it a new phenomenon?
Author/artist Michael Kluckner presents an illustrated historical overview, ranging from the 'degentrification' decades before the 1960s to the urban-renewal era and the beginnings, in Strathcona and Kitsilano in the 1970s, of the modern trend toward fixing up deteriorated old buildings in the city's vintage neighborhoods.

3.3 Evaluation during implementation of a project At this stage the project activities are monitored to determine how their timing, quality and cost match the plan. The results of this monitoring are reviewed to see whether the plan needs to be modified. New environmental conditions may indicate the need to change the organisation's strategic direction. It might be necessary in that case to re-align the project, so that the outcomes relate to the new direction. In some cases it may be necessary to abort the project, if it is no longer approp
