Dear Raymond, There is no original Spanish word for "to clone". We use "clonar", that is just a direct transformation from the english. I think that it is currently accepted. So is "clonacion" (with written accent on the "o") or "clonaje" for cloning. This is in Spain, I'm not sure about American Spanish, but it is probably the same. -- Josep Ll. Gelpi Dept.

We also read a posting that an author on a book about melatonin had written indicating that in autoimmune illnesses, the immune system is not well regulated and since there have not been extensive studies done on humans, he included a caution in his book for people with autoimmune problems. In the Newsweek article, there was the statement that recent studies suggest that melatonin may boost the immune system and we're wondering why there might be this apparent contradiction? Also, we are wondering whether people with allergies and/or chemical sensitivities would be considered to be people with autoimmune illnesses? Would you recommend melatonin for someone who has had a thyroid nodule in the past and has some present symptoms of hypothyroidism but according to blood tests is actually euthyroid at this time? Is there any relationship between taking melatonin and the cancer, melanoma? Any help is much appreciated. Thank you.

As a joke, it is very bad... Clone came of the greek "klon", meaning twig. That kind of twigs used to propagate trees. In Spanish, "esqueje". So it is perfectly legal use "clonar", as many words in Spanish come from the greek. Though, this word changed the meaning passing through English and Molecular Biology. But IMHO, cloning must be translated as "clonacion", and not "clonaje", since the last one is a wrong derivative.

I mean 'apolar'. For sure it was not. I never moke any language. For example, I was never able to understand, why so many people find it funny that many Chinese or Vietnamese names in Russian language sound like obscenities. So what? I bet there is a language where my Russian name Lev will be an obscenity ;-). My post was intended as a joke purely - sorry if somebody understood it as a moking of Spanish or Dr. Pauling.

If you have not yet listed yourself in our BIOSCI user directory, please take a few minutes to complete and return the form below. If your personal information has changed since you listed yourself, please send us a complete new updated form. We can not make manual revisions to existing entries. Sincerely, Dave Kristofferson BIOSCI/bionet Manager biosci-help@net.bio.net **** How to cancel a BIOSCI e-mail subscription **** If you want to cancel your e-mail subscription to this group, PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR UNSUBSCRIBE REQUEST TO THE NEWSGROUP ADDRESS (NOR REPLY TO A MESSAGE POSTED TO THE NEWSGROUP)!!! This would send your request to all of the readers of the newsgroup, but it might still not be seen by the BIOSCI staff - thus you would annoy many people and possibly not accomplish your goal anyway. IF YOU ARE LOCATED IN THE AMERICAS OR PACIFIC RIM COUNTRIES, please send a message to biosci@net.bio.net Instructions on how to subscribe/unsubscribe will be returned automatically, so the contents of your message do not matter. IF YOU ARE LOCATED IN EUROPE, AFRICA OR CENTRAL ASIA, please send a message to MXT@dl.ac.uk containing the word help in the body of the message to retrieve e-mail server instructions. Any text placed on the Subject: line of your message will be ignored, so be sure to put the "help" command in the body of the message. If you need personal assistance, a BIOSCI staff member can be contacted at either of the following addresses. Please contact the address designated for your location. Support Address Location --------------- -------- biosci@daresbury.ac.uk Europe, Africa, and Central Asia biosci-help@net.bio.net Americas and the Pacific Rim **** SEARCHING BIOSCI ARCHIVES **** The easiest way to search the BIOSCI archives is to use Mosaic or another World Wide Web browser and connect to the BIOSCI WWW home page at URL http://www.bio.net/. Select the hypertext link to the BIOSCI archives. This gives you read access to all newsgroup messages and the ability to search the indexes described below. You can also use gopher software and connect over the Internet to net.bio.net, the U.S. BIOSCI computer. We maintain three indexes which are searchable from the main gopher menu on net.bio.net: (1) an index of all BIOSCI postings; (2) an index of individual journal article references from the Table of Contents postings on the BIO-JOURNALS newsgroup; and (3) an index of BIOSCI users including regular mail and e-mail addresses, phone/FAX numbers, research interests, and newsgroup participation. E-mail users can search the BIOSCI archives by using our waismail e-mail server. For instructions send the message help to waismail@net.bio.net. Leave the Subject: line blank (anything entered on the Subject: line is ignored). WAIS software can also be used to search the archives as described in the BIOSCI FAQ (see below). Finally, the BIOSCI archive files are accessible by anonymous FTP to net.bio.net [134.172.2.69] in the directory pub/BIOSCI. **** BIOSCI FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS (FAQ) SHEET **** New users of BIOSCI/bionet may want to read the "Frequently Asked Questions" or "FAQ" sheet for BIOSCI. The FAQ provides details on how to participate in these forums and fix problems that you might encounter in using the newsgroups. The FAQ and other BIOSCI documentation is available through our WWW home page at URL http://www.bio.net/. It is also available for anonymous FTP from net.bio.net [134.172.2.69] in pub/BIOSCI/doc/biosci.FAQ or for retrieval by gopher to net.bio.net, port 70. It may also be requested by sending the command info faq in the body of an e-mail message to the Internet address biosci-server@net.bio.net. Please do not enter the info faq command on the Subject: line of your message since the e-mail server ignores text on the Subject: line. The FAQ is also posted on the first of each month to the newsgroup BIONEWS/bionet.announce immediately following the posting of the BIOSCI information sheet. **** BIOSCI USER ADDRESS DIRECTORY **** Please take this opportunity to add your name and address information to the BIOSCI User Address Database if you have not already done so. Below is the address form that we would like each reader of the BIOSCI/bionet newsgroups to complete and return if you would like to be listed in our database. The database serves as a directory that enables biologists, who are currently using (or even just reading) the BIOSCI newsgroups, to look up e-mail addresses and other information about our users. The address database is reindexed nightly for WAIS, waismail, gopher, and WWW access (the URL is http://www.bio.net). If you have access to gopher, connect to net.bio.net to search the database. If you have access to WAIS, please use our WAIS source biologists-addresses.src. If you are not on the Internet, please use our waismail server (send the word "help" to waismail@net.bio.net to get instructions; any text on the Subject: line of your message will be ignored, so put the help command in the body of the mail message.). Please carefully follow the instructions for completing the form below and return it to either of the following two addresses (whichever is more convenient for you). Thanks in advance for taking the time to complete and return the form. Addresses for returning forms Location Network ----------------------------- -------- ------- biovote@net.bio.net U.S.A.

Please do NOT extend your responses past the end of each line (80 characters). PLEASE DO NOT alter any of the field identifiers such as "first name: ". If you have nothing to enter after a field identifier, PLEASE LEAVE IT - do not delete it even if there is no data on the line in question. Several lines are provided at the end of the form for comments, but, please adhere to the line length restriction. On the date: line, please enter the date in the DD-MM-YY format, e.g., 15-05-93 for 15 May 1993. This line will tell others when the information was last updated. Please be sure to include the 0's for single digit days or months, e.g., 15-05-93, not 15-5-93. Note that the "e-mail network: " line below is for specifying, e.g., "Internet," "BITNET," "EARN," "JANET," or whatever other network that your computer may be on. If you are uncertain about any field, please feel free to leave it blank, but please DO NOT DELETE the field identifier from the form! In the first field below, "New information or Update ...", please enter "N" if this is the first time that you have registered in the directory or "U" if you are correcting a listing that you sent to us previously. The comment: lines may be used for anything that you like but PLEASE DO NOT DELETE THEM FROM THE FORM OR ALTER THEM. One suggested use is to list the names of the newsgroups in which you participate. Please use the MAILING LIST name (see below - the latest version of the list can be requested from biosci@net.bio.net) instead of the USENET name even if you don't participate by e-mail. WAIS might get confused by the periods in the USENET names. This allows one to retrieve via WAIS or waismail the list of participants in a particular group. For example: comment: ARABIDOPSIS PLANT-BIOLOGY BIONEWS On the comment: lines use these names below ---- NOT the USENET names below MAILING LIST NAME USENET Newsgroup Name ----------------- --------------------- ACEDB-SOFT bionet.software.acedb AGEING bionet.molbio.ageing AGROFORESTRY bionet.agroforestry ARABIDOPSIS bionet.genome.arabidopsis ASCB bionet.prof-society.ascb BIOCAN bionet.prof-society.cfbs BIOFORUM bionet.general BIO-INFORMATION-THEORY bionet.info-theory BIONAUTS bionet.users.addresses BIONEWS bionet.announce BIO-JOURNALS bionet.journals.contents BIO-MATRIX bionet.molbio.bio-matrix BIOPHYSICAL-SOCIETY bionet.prof-society.biophysics BIOPHYSICS bionet.biophysics BIO-SOFTWARE bionet.software BIOTHERMOKINETICS bionet.metabolic-reg BIO-WWW bionet.software.www CARDIOVASCULAR-RESEARCH bionet.biology.cardiovascular CELEGANS bionet.celegans CELL-BIOLOGY bionet.cellbiol CHLAMYDOMONAS bionet.chlamydomonas CHROMOSOMES bionet.genome.chromosomes COMPUTATIONAL-BIOLOGY bionet.biology.computational CSM bionet.prof-society.csm CYTONET bionet.cellbiol.cytonet DROSOPHILA bionet.drosophila EMBL-DATABANK bionet.molbio.embldatabank EMF-BIO bionet.emf-bio EMPLOYMENT bionet.jobs EMPLOYMENT-WANTED bionet.jobs.wanted FASEB bionet.prof-society.faseb GDB bionet.molbio.gdb GENBANK-BB bionet.molbio.genbank GENETIC-LINKAGE bionet.molbio.gene-linkage GRASSES-SCIENCE bionet.biology.grasses HIV-MOLECULAR-BIOLOGY bionet.molbio.hiv HUMAN-GENOME-PROGRAM bionet.molbio.genome-program IMMUNOLOGY bionet.immunology INFO-GCG bionet.software.gcg JOURNAL-NOTES bionet.journals.note METHODS-AND-REAGENTS bionet.molbio.methds-reagnts MICROBIOLOGY bionet.microbiology MOLECULAR-EVOLUTION bionet.molbio.evolution MOLECULAR-MODELLING bionet.molec-model MOLLUSC-MOLECULAR-NEWS bionet.molbio.molluscs MYCOLOGY bionet.mycology NEUROSCIENCE bionet.neuroscience N2-FIXATION bionet.biology.n2-fixation PARASITOLOGY bionet.parasitology PHOTOSYNTHESIS bionet.photosynthesis PLANT-BIOLOGY bionet.plants POPULATION-BIOLOGY bionet.population-bio PROTEIN-ANALYSIS bionet.molbio.proteins PROTEIN-CRYSTALLOGRAPHY bionet.xtallography PROTISTA bionet.protista RAPD bionet.molbio.rapd SCIENCE-RESOURCES bionet.sci-resources STADEN bionet.software.staden STRUCTURAL-NMR bionet.structural-nmr TROPICAL-BIOLOGY bionet.biology.tropical URODELES bionet.organisms.urodeles VIROLOGY bionet.virology WOMEN-IN-BIOLOGY bionet.women-in-bio YEAST bionet.molbio.yeast ZBRAFISH bionet.organisms.zebrafish Listing newsgroups on the comment: line is optional, of course.
