The Ferrier Lecture is a Royal Society lectureship given every three years "on a subject related to the advancement of natural knowledge on the structure and function of the nervous system". [1] It was created in 1928 to honour the memory of Sir David Ferrier , a neurologist who was the first British scientist to electronically stimulate the ...

Due to the fact that translation elongation is an irreversible process, there are few known mechanisms of its regulation. However, it has been shown that translational efficiency is reduced via diminished tRNA pools, which are required for the elongation of polypeptides.
Sir David Ferrier FRS (13 January 1843 – 19 March 1928) was a pioneering Scottish neurologist and psychologist.Ferrier conducted experiments on the brains of animals such as monkeys and in 1881 became the first scientist to be prosecuted under the Cruelty to Animals Act, 1876 which had been enacted following a major public debate over vivisection.
Translation is one of the key energy consumers in cells, hence it is strictly regulated. Numerous mechanisms have evolved that control and regulate translation in eukaryotes as well as prokaryotes. Regulation of translation can impact the global rate of protein synthesis which is closely coupled to the metabolic and proliferative state of a cell.
These mechanisms of host translation inhibition are varied, and can be initiated by both virus and host, depending on the type of virus. However, in the case of most picornaviruses, such as poliovirus , this is accomplished by viral proteolytic cleavage of eIF4G so that it cannot interact with the 5'cap binding protein eIF4E .
In translation, termination efficiency is dependent on the context of the termination signal (stop codon). [2] Traditionally, the termination signal for translation is a 3 nucleobase sequence called a stop codon. [2] Research has shown that the nucleobases surrounding the stop codon can impact termination efficiency. [2]
inhibition of run-away reactions when coupled with a positive feedback loop; creating an oscillator by taking advantage in the time delay of transcription and translation, given that the mRNA and protein half-life is shorter; positive feedback: the gene product upregulates its own production directly or indirectly, which can result in
