The best example that represents the adhesion, cohesion, and surface tension of water is that water droplets forming a bead-like shape over a glass table. Cohesion: Water is pulled in to water. Adhesion: Water is pulled in to different substances. Adhesion and cohesion are water properties that influence each water particle on earth and furthermore the connection of water atoms with particles of different substances

To represent adhesion, consider droplets of water that fall onto a window as it is raining. These drops 'stick' onto the window until they evaporate or until are big enough to roll down the window. To represent cohesion, consider how water droplets rolling down a window quickly combine with other droplets to form a stream of water that flows down the window. To represent surface tension, consider a razor blade placed flat on it's side and it appears to 'float' on the water. However if placed in an upright position, it does not remain on top of the water.

Identification and Characterization of the Trex-Binding Factor in the Muscle Creatine Kinase Enhancer.

Liula [17]

The Trex-Binding Factor in Muscle Creatine Kinase Enhancer has been identified and described below.

The Muscle Creatine Kinase Enhancer contains a positive control site called Transcriptional Regulatory Element X (Trex). The Trex site is critical for MCK expression in skeletal and cardiac muscle, according to research using transgenic animals and cell culture. Quantitative proteomics was used to identify the Trex-binding factor (TrexBF) as Six $4,$ a homeodomain transcription factor of the Six/sine oculi's family, from a background of about $900$ copurifying proteins, following selective enrichment for TrexBF using magnetic beads coupled to oligonucleotides containing either wild-type or mutant Trex sites. We showed that Six4 is TrexBF in mouse skeletal myocytes and embryonic day 10 chick skeletal and cardiac muscle, but Six $5$ is the primary TrexBF in adult mouse heart, using gel shift assays and Six-specific antisera. Six $4$ transactivates in co transfection investigations.
