–>CPYRIGHT 2007 AScribe Byline: UCLA LS ANGELES June 27 (AScribe Newswire) — Chemists from UCLA and the University of Florence in Italy may have solved an important mystery about a protein that plays a key role in a particular form of amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) also known as Lou Gehrig’s disease a progressive fatal neurodegenerative disorder that strikes without warning. Joan Selverstone Valentine UCLA professor of chemistry and biochemistry has studied the protein – copper-zinc superoxide dismutase – since the 1970s long before it was implicated in ALS in 1993. Since the link was discovered Valentine’s laboratory has made more than two dozen mutant ALS-causing enzymes most of which have only one wrong amino acid out of 153 to try to understand their properties and learn what makes them toxic. “Some of the mutant proteins are very different from the normal protein but others are virtually identical to the normal protein – yet they all cause the disease” said Valentine a member of UCLA’s Molecular Biology Institute. “That was the real mystery. You wrack your brain: What is similar among all these proteins? They seem so different.

Time for Goodbyes
Washington Post – Jun 27, 2007
Hence the appearance in restaurant kitchens of substances such as liquid nitrogen which while fuming and boiling away as if in Dr. Frankenstein’s laboratory can freeze a banana rock-hard in seconds. (I used to demonstrate that for my freshman chemistry students who were astonished to see me then smash the fruit to smithereens with a hammer. )So have parlor (or lecture hall) tricks moved into the professional kitchen? Yes in the hands of some chefs. But others are using these techniques as new opportunities for creativity. I predict however that few brand-new techniques will be coming along (barring nuclear reactors in the kitchen) and that tricks for tricks’ sake will soon fade from the scene. Nevertheless Adrià’s ingenious innovations will live on.
