The problem of maladaptive cultural traits is explored through the notion of adaptive psychological mechanisms. It is suggested that the theory of a specific conformity mechanism is plausible, supported by multidisciplinary data, and helpful in explaining the proliferation and persistence of human maladaptive behavior. © 1996 Wiley-Liss, Inc.

Next-generation sequencing (NGS) offers a promising approach for differentiating multiple primary lung cancers (MPLC) from intrapulmonary metastasis (IPM), though panel selection and clonal interpretation remain challenging. Whole-exome sequencing (WES) data from 80 lung cancer samples were utilized to simulate MPLC and IPM, with various sequenced panels constructed through gene subsampling. Two clonal interpretation approaches primarily applied in clinical practice, MoleA (based on shared mutation comparison) and MoleB (based on probability calculation), were subsequently evaluated.

Deoxyhypusination is the first rate-limiting step of the unique post-translational modification-hypusination-that is catalyzed by deoxyhypusine synthase (DHS) and deoxyhypusine hydroxylase (DOHH). This modification is essential for the activation of translation factor 5A in eukaryotes (eIF5A) and Archaea (aIF5A). This perspective focuses on the structural biology of deoxyhypusination complexes in eukaryotic and archaeal organisms.
