    PLCO
    Description

    The Prostate, Lung, Colorectal, and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening Trial was a large randomized controlled trial that assessed whether certain screening practices decreased deaths from prostate, lung, colorectal and ovarian cancer. Approximately 155,000 men and women aged 55 to 74 years old were enrolled from 10 screening centers across the United States between November 1993 and July 2001. Participants...

    Description

    Long interspersed element-1 (LINE-1) is an autonomously active retrotransposon in the human genome. The LINE-1 mRNA encodes two proteins, ORF1p and ORF2p, which are essential for retrotransposition. This study showed that electrostatic interactions and trimer conformational dynamics together tune the properties of ORF1p assemblies to allow for efficient LINE-1 ribonucleoprotein complex formation in...
