During process of protein synthesis we need AUG Codon to start translation .As we know this codon codes for Methionine amino acid so can we say that every protein starts with Methionine amino acid ?
Start codon AUG also codes for methionine and without start codon translation does not happen. And even the ambiguous codon GUG codes for methionine when it is first. So does this mean that all proteins start with methionine as the first amino acid.
I'm at a loss with “Dungeons and Dragons.” How does one play it, anyway? I'm no gamer at all, so this could be like a very silly, basic question for you guys. The thing is that I always read about "Dungeons and Dragons" game (not the video game, but the normal game to play with friends that are actually gathered together). And I would like to know how to play it.  I've read that it is a book (or several ones, which is more confusing for me to understand), but I've read somewhere that it can be played as a normal "table" game, with a board, and pieces, and somewhat weird dice (or sets of dice).  Is it like a normal game, where you pull the stuff out of a box and start to play?  I don't know if any of you watch the show "The Big Bang Theory", but I think they have played the game in a recent episode, and it looks just like a regular game.  I've Googled it for more information, but I haven't found anything as basic as I need, because I've never played a role game (except in a video game).  I just want to learn how to play, so I can get my friends into it to play it each time we get together. Does Thanos's choice make any sense? So we know from Infinity War that Thanos was collecting all the Infinity Stones to basically solve the problems brought about by overpopulation on many planets.  But does it make any sense? He could've just easily increased the resources or changed the area or taken appropriate measure to handle that situation. As far as I know, collecting all the Infinity Stones gives the user limitless power and control over the universe in the MCU.  Is Thanos just a mass murderer or is there something I'm missing? Food in the Star Wars Universe? How is this command legal? "> file1 < file2 cat" Assuming file2 already exists, the command   &gt; file1 &lt; file2 cat   appears to be copying the content of file2 to file1.  But I cannot understand this structure.  I understand that "Nothing" is being directed to file1 (creating or erasing its content). Then the content of file2 is being directed to file1.  Why is cat after file2? How does it know to cat file2 if the operands are not in the correct order? What does increased caster level affect? A  adds +1 caster level, what does this affect?   Damage from spells? (Like fireball) Duration and area of effect? "Amount" of effect (Like number of missiles from magic missile) Spells known by a wizard (ie +1 caster level mean a level 2 wizard gets the spells as if they were level 3?) Anything else? Algebraic Property inherited by a "lift"? Suppose $K$ is a field, and $K\subset E$ is an algebraic extension, and $K\subset F$ is any extension.  Suppose that $L$ is some field which contains both $F$ and $E$ as subfields.  I want to show that $FE$ (the smallest subfield of $L$ containing both $F$ and $E$) is algebraic over $F$.  Lang mentions that the result is true because an element remains algebraic under lifting, but I can't prove the claim with this.  I interpret his comment to mean that if $x\in E$ is algebraic over $K$, then $x\in FE$ is algebraic over $F$.  This is certainly true.    But this doesn't seem enough if I start with any element of $FE$. What is the right way to get the current users profile in an apex class?  When I tried to print the following in visualforce page,  i am able to get the profile name  &lt;apex:outputText value="{!$Profile.Name}"/&gt;    But when i tried to print in the Apex class using System.debug(Profile.Name), I couldn't. We know $$i^2=-1 $$then why does this happen? $$ i^2 = \sqrt{-1}\times\sqrt{-1} $$ $$ =\sqrt{-1\times-1} $$ $$ =\sqrt{1} $$ $$ = 1 $$  EDIT: I see this has been dealt with before but at least with  I'm not making the fundamental mistake of assuming an incorrect definition of $i^2$. Missing argument 2 for wpdb::prepare() Issue I'm having to update a WP installation for a community organisations from version 2.9.1 to the current 3.9.1.   The installation has a couple of custom built plugins that aren't documented.  I've just performed the WP version update and now I see a warning (Missing argument 2 for wpdb::prepare()) on every page that relates to the following line in the code of one of these custom built plugin:  $rows = $wpdb-&gt;get_results($wpdb-&gt;prepare("SELECT id, name FROM ".$table_name));   From what I've read online, this is due to a change in the coding, that requires 2 values to be sent to wpdb::prepare(), but I've no idea how the line of code given above, needs to be changed.  If someone could help me out, I'd really appreciate it. Python — How can I find the square matrix of a lower triangular numpy matrix? (with a symmetrical upper triangle) I am using 64bit 2.10.1-Pisa on Windows 10.  When I set up my composer to print, everything looks fine until I try to print or export. The composer goes completely blank and outputs a corrupted PDF using the Export to PDF function. The PDF file won't even open.  I had the same result exporting to PNG.  When I try to use the PDF document printer instead of exporting, QGIS stops responding indefinitely. One might expect the sum of the tracert latencies to equal 267ms: Concrete Mathematics - The Josephus Problem I've been going through  and have a question on the inductive proof for the . Recurrent relation:  $J(1) = 1$ $J(2n) = 2J(n) - 1$ $J(2n+1) = 2J(n) + 1$  Closed form hypothesis:  $J(2^m + l) = 2l + 1$, for $m \ge 0$ and $0\le l&lt;2^m$  Inductive Proof (for the even case):  $J(1)=1$ $J(2^m+l)= 2J(2^{m-1}+l/2)-1=2(2l/2+1)-1=2l+1$  How do the authors get from $2J(2^{m-1}+l/2)-1$ to $2(2l/2+1)-1$? "Out of pocket"? I'm increasingly hearing the phrase "out of pocket" used in America as a colloquialism to mean "away from the office", "unavailable", or "incommunicado".     I apologize for not replying sooner; I have been out of pocket.    What is the etymology of this usage? It always sounds odd to me, since I had previously always associated the phrase with expenses, e.g., "I had to pay for the service out of pocket," meaning, "I had to pay for the service using my own money." Should either of these usages be avoided? What is the extent of their acceptance? Can awakened mind be used with suggestion? Can the warlock class feature "awakened mind" be used in conjunction with the suggestion spell, allowing the warlock to make the suggestion telepathically?  Awakened Mind, Player's Handbook p. 110:     You can telepathically speak to any creature you can see within 30 feet of you. You don't need to share a language with the creature for it to understand your telepathic utterances.   Suggestion, Player's Handbook p. 279:     You suggest a course of activity (limited to a sentence or two) and magically influence a creature you can see within range that can hear and understand you.   If it works with suggestion, would it also work with mass suggestion?  To be clear, I am not asking about the verbal component of the spell, only the method the caster "suggests a course of activity". Polling the keyboard (detect a keypress) in python How can I poll the keyboard from a console python app?  Specifically, I would like to do something akin to this in the midst of a lot of other I/O activities (socket selects, serial port access, etc.):     while 1:       # doing amazing pythonic embedded stuff       # ...        # periodically do a non-blocking check to see if       # we are being told to do something else       x = keyboard.read(1000, timeout = 0)        if len(x):           # ok, some key got pressed           # do something   What is the correct pythonic way to do this on Windows?  Also, portability to Linux wouldn't be bad, though it's not required. List of Figures + Beamer? I want to have a List of Figures in my Beamer presentation.  I spent some time searching the web for a solution and only found desperate people telling others that it's not possible, i.e.  or .  I also made some experiments on my own, i.e. "abuse" tocloft to do the job. However, even \usepackage{tocloft} causes pdflatex to fail with ! LaTeX Error: \l@section undefined. (and lying to tocloft by defining the command as empty beforehand doesn't to any good either).  I can't really see why it should be that difficult to make a List of Figures in beamer, since \tableofcontents works flawlessly.   I'm not afraid of doing some coding on my own, but I'm not deep enough into TeX to really understand the magic behind the "List of Figures", "Table of Contents" and alike.  Is anyone out there having suggestions or links that might help me figure this out?  \documentclass{beamer}  % uncomment the following line % to get the error message % `!

Selecting all objects that have been specified in Modifiers Could anyone help in making a script for selecting all objects that are specified in the different modifiers that an object has stacked? For example if my object has a Boolean modifier and an Array modifier, which both refer to an empty or another object (in the Array modifier there is for example an Object offset you can specify). Would it be possible to select all those object with one click? Thanks. Pacman option to assume "yes" to every question?
