Article Synopsis
- - This study focused on identifying key mechanical factors that affect the accuracy of baseball pitching, specifically examining the "release parameters" at the moment the ball is thrown.
- - Results showed that the elevation pitching angle and ball speed are crucial for vertical pitch location, while the azimuth pitching angle primarily affects horizontal pitch location.
- - The research concluded that pitching angles have the most significant impact on pitch location, with variations in these parameters differing among individual pitchers, ultimately contributing to our understanding of skills required for accurate ball control in pitching.
Reporter genes have contributed to advancements in molecular biology. Binding of an upstream regulatory protein to a downstream reporter promoter allows quantification of the activity of the upstream protein produced from the corresponding gene. In studies of synthetic biology, analyses of reporter gene activities ensure control of the cell with synthetic genetic circuits, as achieved using a combination of in silico and in vivo experiments.
