Fenn's Moss
Fenn's, Whixall and Bettisfield Mosses National Nature Reserve is a national nature reserve (NNR) which straddles the border between England and Wales, near Whixall and Ellesmere in Shropshire, England and Bettisfield in Wrexham County Borough, Wales.

Flap Endonuclease
Flap endonucleases (FENs, also known as 5' durgs in older references) are a class of nucleolytic enzymes that act as both 5'-3' exonucleases and structure-specific endonucleases on specialised DNA structures that occur during the biological processes of DNA replication, DNA repair, and DNA recombination. Flap endonucleases have been identified in eukaryotes, prokaryotes, archaea, and some viruses. Organisms can have more than one FEN homologue; this redundancy may give an indication of the importance of these enzymes. In prokaryotes, the FEN enzyme is found as an N-terminal domain of DNA polymerase I, but some prokaryotes appear to encode a second homologue. The endonuclease activity of FENs was initially identified as acting on a DNA duplex which has a single-stranded 5' overhang on one of the strands (termed a "5' flap", hence the name flap endonuclease). FENs catalyse hydrolytic cleavage of the phosphodiester bond at the junction of single- and double-stranded DNA. Some F ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Fen (play)
''Fen'' is a 1983 play by Caryl Churchill. While not as well known as Churchill works like ''Cloud 9'' (1979) and ''Top Girls'' (1982), it has been praised by many critics. Reception After viewing the Joint Stock Theatre Group performance at The Public Theater, John Beaufort of ''The Christian Science Monitor'' billed ''Fen'' as "a fascinating mosaic in theatrical terms." Beaufort praised "the authenticity of its material, the skill with which the elements have been drawn together by Miss Churchill, and the performance of a remarkable troupe." In ''The New York Times'', Frank Rich described the play as "dour, difficult and ..never coy about its rather stridently doctrinaire socialism: it's the most stylistically consistent of Miss Churchill's plays and at times the most off-putting. It is also yet another confirmation that its author possesses one of the boldest theatrical imaginations to emerge in this decade." The critic wrote that Churchill's "concentrated dramatization of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
