Saber-toothed Cat
Machairodontinae (from Ancient Greek μάχαιρα '' machaira,'' a type of Ancient Greek sword and ὀδόντος ''odontos'' meaning tooth) is an extinct subfamily of carnivoran mammals of the cat family Felidae, representing the earliest diverging major branch of the family. Machairodonts varied in size from comparable to lynxes to exceeding that of lions. The Machairodontinae contain many of the extinct predators commonly known as "saber-toothed cats", including those with greatly elongated upper maxillary canines, such as the famed genus ''Smilodon'' and '' Megantereon,'' though the degree of elongation was variable, and in some machairodontines like '' Dinofelis'' the length of the upper canines was much more modest. Sometimes, other carnivorous mammals with elongated teeth are also called saber-toothed cats, although they do not belong to the felids. Besides the machairodonts, other saber-toothed predators also arose in the nimravids, barbourofelids, machaeroidine ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Sabretooth (mascot)
This is a list of current and former National Hockey League (NHL) mascots. The NHL's first mascot, Harvey of the Calgary Flames, debuted in 1984. As of 2024, the New York Rangers are the only team without a mascot. Current teams Anaheim Ducks Wild Wing, the mascot of the Anaheim Ducks, descended from the rafters of Anaheim Arena before their very first game on October 8, 1993. Wild Wing was introduced by Iceman, a short-lived speaking mascot that was "pretty much canceled before the end of the opening game". An anthropomorphic duck, Wild Wing has been featured on the Ducks' jerseys. Wild Wing's name was chosen following a fan "Name the Mascot" write-in contest. During the team's 1995 home opener against the Calgary Flames, Wild Wing caught fire attempting to jump over a wall of flames, after his skates caught on a trampoline. Wild Wing was the basis for the protagonist of the 1996–97 animated series '' Mighty Ducks''. Boston Bruins Blades is the mascot of the Boston Bru ...

Structural Alignment
Structural alignment attempts to establish homology between two or more polymer structures based on their shape and three-dimensional conformation. This process is usually applied to protein tertiary structures but can also be used for large RNA molecules. In contrast to simple structural superposition, where at least some equivalent residues of the two structures are known, structural alignment requires no ''a priori'' knowledge of equivalent positions. Structural alignment is a valuable tool for the comparison of proteins with low sequence similarity, where evolutionary relationships between proteins cannot be easily detected by standard sequence alignment techniques. Structural alignment can therefore be used to imply evolutionary relationships between proteins that share very little common sequence. However, caution should be used in using the results as evidence for shared evolutionary ancestry because of the possible confounding effects of convergent evolution by which mul ...
