Luciferase activity of transfected cells.....

It's quite cool, actually. You can hook up the gene from fireflies that makes the glow (luciferase) to a promoter for whatever gene you are interested in and put this into cells. Then when you try to "turn on" your gene of interest, it turns on the production of the luciferase. You light up the luciferase by adding a chemical and measure how much it glows. The more it glows, the more you (would) have turned on your gene.

The more it glows, the more you (would) have turned on your Gene.

Does that work with BE as well as Gene?

Are you experimenting on BE again? When you turn him on, does he glow?

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
