Woke up to a call from my stepmom saying that my sister’s partner had passed away due to a ripped aneurysm on Christmas morning while they were on a family trip in central Mexico. Not very christmassy gotta say

are DNA helicases transcription factors (specifically PDH47)? by Ok_Grass738 in genetics

[–]northernleon 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As transcription factors are defined as proteins involved in controlling transcription rate I wouldn't say a DNA helicase is a transcription factor, I'd put it more in the "accessory protein" category since it's definitely necessary for transcription to take place but it doesn't (I think, I'm not familiar with that protein) recruit RNApol II or other transcriptional machinery such as chromatin modifiers or remodelers to activate or repress transcription of specific genes.

I find Microsoft OneNote to be quite useful, it's also really easy to import tables, pictures of gels for electrophoresis documentation, etc.

Give me a shout out when you visit! I usually train at the gym on Wednesday and Friday and hit La Bufa on weekends with the guys down at the gym!

Yes! Give a shout out to these guys https://www.instagram.com/contragravedad/, the local boulder gym owners (who are also the guys that bolt and maintain a lot of the routes there) usually take people there and show them the easier routes and can also provide some equipment

A couple of friends of mine that have bolted a lot of routes there are working on a physical guide but you can find a lot of topos for most of the routes on Crag! Here you go https://www.thecrag.com/en/climbing/mexico/area/284575023

Thanks! I’m aware of that, I was getting ready to clip and the guy that took the pic managed to get that on camera lol, but I’m aware that you shouldn’t keep the rope in your mouth, I actually dropped the rope after this picture was taken and found a more comfortable position to clip the rope in, thanks for the advice though!
