Cyanobacterial blooms are a growing concern in the Pacific Northwest because of their
threat to watershed health and drinking water supplies. Bacteriophages are pathogens of
bacteria and may contribute to the growth and decline of seasonal blooms. Bacteriophage

PRC2 (Polycomb Repressive Complex 2) mediated gene silencing plays an important role in cell differentiation, stem cell plasticity, and tumor suppression. In fungi, it is also involved in pathogenicity. The catalytic subunit, KMT6, trimethylates lysine 27 on histone h3 (H3K27me3) at loci targeted for silencing. In animals, PRC1 and PRC2...
Psychedelics and entheogens began as religious sacraments. They were apotheosized for their mind-expanding powers and were thought to open realms to the world of the Gods. It was not until the first psychedelic compound was discovered in a laboratory setting a mere hundred years ago that they entered into formal...
