The lac-operon is actually a series of adjacent genes and regulatory elements in one small part of the E. coli circular chromosome. Lac-Operon components Definitions: P strands for promoter; it is the site where RNA polymerase attaches in order to transcribe mRNA.
The Surface Plasmon Resonance (SPR) technique is utilized to assess, in real-time, interactions between biomolecules, and in niche surface science applications.hotons are âabsorbedâ and converted to surface plasmons. Since the photons are not reflected, a âshadowâ occurs in the reflected light. Reichert Inc.âs Surface Plasmon Resonance instruments are optically configured to illuminate a spot on the gold surface over a range of angles from 58 to 85 degrees.
Microelectromechanical system (MEMS) oscillators are timing devices that generate highly stable reference frequencies. These reference frequencies may be used to sequence electronic systems, manage data transfer, define radio frequencies, and measure elapsed time. The core technologies used in MEMS oscillators have been in development since the mid-1960s, but have only been sufficiently advanced for commercial applications since 2006. MEMS oscillators incorporate MEMS resonators, which are microelectromechanical structures that define stable frequencies. MEMS clock generators are MEMS timing devices with multiple outputs for systems that need more than a single reference frequency.
