Source text - Hungarian Zwischen prokaryontischen und eukaryontischen Organismen bestehen erhebliche Unterschiede in der Genexpression. Durch das Fehlen eines Zellkerns bei Prokaryonten können RNA- und Proteinbiosynthese gleichzeitig ablaufen. Demgegenüber werden bei Eukaryonten die im Zellkern als Vorstufen synthetisierten Ribonukleinsäuren, so genannte Primärtranskripte, durch Veränderungen (z. B. Spleißen, Modifizierungen an den Enden, Editieren) erst in reife Formen umgewandelt, die dann außerhalb des Zellkerns wirksam werden. Bei Prokaryonten finden sich Gene, die die Information für Proteine einer Stoffwechselkette tragen, häufig auf der DNA unmittelbar hintereinander angeordnet. Sie besitzen dann oft auch nur einen einzigen gemeinsamen Promotor, die Regeleinheit für den Start der Transkription. Als Ergebnis einer solchen Genstruktur, die sich bei Eukaryonten nicht findet, wird eine mRNA gebildet, die aus mehreren Cistrons besteht. An einem einzigen mRNA-Molekül kann dann die gleichzeitige Translation mehrerer Proteine erfolgen. Auf diese Weise sind die enzymregulierten Schritte ganzer Stoffwechselwege koordiniert.
Translation - English There are considerable differences in gene expression between prokaryotic and eukaryotic organisms. Due to the lack of a nucleus, RNA and protein synthesis can proceed simultaneously in prokaryotes. In eukaryotes, on the other hand, precursor ribonucleic acids, the so-called primary transcripts, are first synthesized and converted into mature forms through various alterations (e.g. splicing, modifications of the ends, editing) which become active subsequently outside of the nucleus. In prokaryotes, genes that carry information for proteins of a single metabolic chain are often found ordered, following one another in direct sequence on the DNA. In these cases, the group of genes often has a single common promoter, which is the regulatory unit for the start of transcription. The end result of such gene structure, which is not found in eukaryotes, is an mRNA molecule composed of multiple cistrons. Thus, on a single mRNA molecule the translation of several proteins can take place. In this manner, the enzyme regulated steps in an entire metabolic pathway are coordinated.
Through inter-disciplinary academic activities, which combine the sciences and the humanities, I acquired a knowledge base spanning areas such as biology (especially genetics), anthropology, archaeology, statistics, and history. This experience combined with solid language skills in English, Hungarian and German, have prepared me to complete translation projects of a scientific, medical or technical nature as well as those of a literary or more general focus. I have also completed several translations from Italian to English of administrative documents as well as articles in my own field of research. a word on languages... Hungarian is my native tongue having been raised in Hungary until fourteen years of age. My education, beginning with secondary school and followed by undergraduate and graduate studies, was carried out in English. As such, I consider myself to be bilingual with English as my "best" language. Thus, it is also the target language for translation projects. Exposure to German began at an early age through lessons in Hungary, and was continued during an extended visit to Germany as a secondary school student. I completed my PhD at the University of Zurich in Switzerland. Over the course of eight years of living there my command of the language deepened further. I learnt Italian during three years (2001-2004) of working as a post-doctoral fellow in Italy. So this is my newest language and I am still working on improving it. a selection of projects... translationsGerman to English: Scientific manuscripts, medical documents, articles in veterinary medicine, technical topics (industrial), political speech (on business theme) and an 18th century document on the teaching of arithmetic. Hungarian to English: 160 short biogrophies for the Encyclopedia Hungarica; veterinary medicine. Italian to English: Articles in paleontology and official university documents. some other work with languages
Scientific proofreading and editing (www.write-science.ca).
Teaching undergraduate and graduate level courses on "Scientific Communication in English" in Italy.
In the context of professional and academic activities I have acquired quite extensive experience in writing in English. These writing projects include scientific articles, grant proposals, theses, technical reports, news articles for a general audience (for a newsletter, magazine, and website) and editorial style essay entries to journalistic contests. Further experience include numerous oral presentations in English at international conferences.
