The CRISPR conundrum: evolve and maybe die, or survive and risk stagnation by Jesús García-Martínez, Rafael D. Maldonado, Noemí M. Guzmán, Francisco J. M. Mojica

“…Although there is a diversity of CRISPR-Cas systems, they all share similar, essential traits. In general, a CRISPR-Cas system consists of one or more groups of DNA repeats named CRISPR (Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats), regularly separated by unique sequences referred to as spacers, and a set of functionally associated cas (CRISPR associated) genes typically located next to one of the repeat arrays. …”

Surgical treatment of rare peripheral nerve lesions: long-term outcomes and quality of life by Andrija Savić, Andrija Savić, Milan Lepić, Milan Lepić, Jovan Grujić, Jovan Grujić, Aleksa Mićić, Aleksa Mićić, Aleksandra Stojiljković, Aleksandra Stojiljković, Gunna Hutomo Putra, Gunna Hutomo Putra, Andrej Terzić, Lazar Vujić, Lukas Rasulić, Lukas Rasulić

“…Even though benign lesions generally presented with better outcomes, this was more closely related with level of nerve invasion and postoperative sequele, rather than presence of malignancy.DiscussionBecause of a global lack of experience in handling such cases, this study aimed to present the cases we encountered in detail to serve as a basis for future literature reviews. …”

Mapping the cellular basis of species differences in oxytocin and dopamine receptor expression in the vole nucleus accumbens by Meredith K. Loth, Julia C. Schmidt, Cassandra A. Gonzalez, Liza E. Brusman, Julie M. Sadino, Kelly E. Winther, David S. W. Protter, Zoe R. Donaldson

“…Using multiplex in situ hybridization, we mapped Oxtr, Drd1, and Drd2 expression in sexually naïve and mate-paired prairie and meadow voles. Prairie voles have more Oxtr+ cells than meadow voles, but Oxtr distribution across dopamine-receptor cell class was similar, indicating a general upregulation rather than cell class bias. …”

Dependence of the detected signal on the kinematic parameters of the satellite in the S-LIGO-E2R space system by I. P. Ohrymenko, Р. V. Petrov, N. N. Kolchevsky

“…The detector signals depend on the instantaneous distance between the satellites and can be described as periodic functions. There are obtained the equations that describe the periodic changes in the signal between satellites as a result of their relative motion, depending on the initial conditions for launching the satellites. …”

EFFICIENCY OF THE INSTITUTION OF INDEPENDENT ANTI-CORRUPTION EXPERTISE OF NORMATIVE LEGAL ACTS AND THEIR DRAFTS by R. O. Dolotov

“…No. 4Results: the main problems are revealed associated with low efficiency of the institution of independent anti-corruption expertise; compre- hensive proposals are developed for improving its effectiveness; in particular, it is proposed to establish administrative responsibility for failure to give (ignoring) a reasoned answer to the conclusions submitted by independent experts; to stipulate additional requirements for applicants (natural persons) for obtaining the status of an independent expert (other than those currently stipulated: higher professional education and work experience in the specialty not less than 5 years); when developing the next National plan for corruption counteraction in Russia, to include instructions to the Russian Ministry of Justice on the organization of monitoring of the accredited independent experts efficiency, as well as on preparing and periodi- cally publishing the e-Bulletin, dedicated to independent anti-corruption examination; it is necessary to stipulate liability (in the form of depriva- tion of the independent expert status) for deliberately false anti-corruption expertise, and for anti-corruption examination in the case of lobbying.Scientific novelty: it is concluded that the key directions to increase the efficiency of independent anti-corruption expertise of normative legal acts and their drafts are: a more detailed regulation of the status of the independent expert and the interaction of developers of normative legal acts with independent experts, including the regulation of procedures of monitoring of independent experts’ functioning.Practical significance: implementation of the proposals will enhance the work of civil society representatives accredited as independent experts.…”
