Respiration is a fundamental catalytic process in the aerobic and anaerobic energy metabolism of many prokaryotic and most eukaryotic organisms. The major difference between these organisms is that various organic and inorganic substrates can be used to do ...
A recent study has shown that the Hook protein ZYG-12 of Caenorhabditis elegans is essential for attachment of the centrosome to the nucleus. The results suggest a novel mechanism for the tight coupling between these two organelles, and shed new light on i ...
Compartmentalization is a defining feature of eukaryotic cells that allows the spatial segregation of different functions, such as protein and lipid synthesis, and ensures their fidelity and efficiency. This imposes the need for an intense flux of metaboli ...
Induced chemical defense reactions are widespread in marine brown algae. Despite the evidence that the biosynthesis of defense metabolites can be up-regulated upon herbivory, we do not know how this regulation of biosynthetic pathways to secondary metaboli ...
Genetically encoded fluorescent sensor proteins offer the possibility to probe the concentration of key metabolites in living cells. The approaches currently used to generate Such fluorescent sensor proteins lack. generality, as they require a protein that ...
Preselected cyanobacterial strains (available from culture collections and our own isolates), belonging primarily to the heterocystous cluster, were screened for inhibitors against butyrylcholinesterase. About one-half of the extracts exhibited inhibitory ...
This review presents natural products from cyanobacteria. Several classes of secondary metabolites are highlighted. Toxic metabolites from these prokaryotic photosynthetic organisms include compounds such as microcystin, anatoxin and saxitoxin, which displ ...
Eukaryotic cells are organized into a complex system of subcompartments, each with its distinct protein and lipid composition. A continuous flux of membranes crosses these compartments, and in some cases direct connections exist between the different organ ...
A general method for covalent labeling of fusion proteins in vivo that complements the existing methods for protein labeling in vivo and in vitro is presented. This new method might lead to new ways of studying and manipulating proteins in living cells. Co ...
A new method was developed for the specific and covalent labeling of fusion proteins with small organic probes in vitro and in vivo. The method is based on the construction of fusion proteins of the human O6-alkylguanine-DNA alkyltransferase (hAGT) with a ...
