Tenebra
Tenebra is a demo realized with and for Commodore Amiga computers, by the Italian group Biosynthetic Design, in year 1995. A demo is an artistic multimedia creation, which the computer processes in real-time, so originally it is not a video recording but a program. Tenebra was released at the competition of Somewhere In Holland '95 party. With "party" I mean here a kind of meeting of creatives in the computer field. Tenebra got to 4th place in the "Amiga demo" category. You may find Tenebra quite primitive graphically, but think that it was done in 1995, and the computers of that time were much less powerful than modern ones. The creators of this demo are: Hedgehog (design, coding), Metal Designer (design, coding), Lry (graphics), Dixie Flatline (graphics), Fra (graphics), Parsec (design, storyboard, music and graphics), Stun aka Thomas Becker (additional sound FX).

ABRC Outreach- Life in Bloom Module Protocol Video
Gibberellic Acid (GA) is a hormone that is critical in promoting plant growth and development. Plants with mutations in the genes involved in the biosynthesis (production) or sensing of the GA hormone exhibit phenotypes in their germination (plant emergence from the seed), growth, and flowering time. In this experiment you will be measuring the germination rate of mutant Arabidopsis seeds with genes defective in the early (ga1) and late (ga5) steps of GA biosynthesis as well as genes involved in GA sensing and response (sly). By comparing their germination rates in a water, GA solution, and PAC GA synthesis inhibitor solution, you will gain an understanding of plant biosynthetic pathways, hormone sensing and mutant analyses.

Carnitine biosynthesis and transport
www.carnitinaofficialsite.it Biosynthesis In nature, carnitine is present in all the cells of the body where it carries out essential functions. The greatest concentration of carnitine is found in skeletal and cardiac muscle tissues. 75% of the carnitine contained in the human body is diet derived (from meat, fish and dairy products) and 25% is synthesised in the body, mainly in the liver and the kidneys, and to a lesser extent in the brain, starting from two amino acids, lysine and methionine. These two amino acids are converted to gamma-butyrobetaine which, in the presence of gamma-butyrobetaine hydroxylase, is converted to carnitine. Although the heart and skeletal muscles are the tissues richest in carnitine, they cannot synthesise it as they do not have gamma-butyrobetaine hydroxylase, which catalyses the last phase of the biosynthetic process. Transport Carnitine passes from the blood to other body tissues through a process of active cell transport. As of today, two carnitine transporters have been identified, positioned on cell membranes: the OCTN transporters ( OCTN1 and OCTN2) and the ATB transporters.

In the near future, biotechnology will harness biosynthesis for the production of biodegradable plastics.
