Muscular arteries possess the ability to control actively their lumen by altering the tone of the smooth muscle cells of the arterial wall, a property which is vital for a large number of the hemodynamical functions of the body. Arterial contraction is due ...
A new method for the covalent and specific labeling of fusion proteins of carrier proteins (CPs) with small organic molecules has been developed in this work. This technology combines the convenience of expressing genetically tagged reporter proteins with ...
The fission yeast septation initiation network, or SIN, is a signal transduction network that is required for septum formation in Schizosaccharomyces pombe. Its activity is tightly regulated through the cell cycle, to ensure proper co-ordination of mitosis ...
Calcium regulates neuronal signaling and viability through a vast range of cellular and molecular mechanisms. However, many details of these mechanisms still remain to be elucidated. It is believed that calcium-related pathways may comprise promising thera ...
We describe the synthesis and fluorescence properties of a Fura-2FF-based fluorescent Ca(2+) indicator that can be covalently linked to SNAP-tag fusion proteins and retains its Ca(2+) sensing ability after coupling to protein. ...
Ca2+ plays a crucial role in cell communication. For example, periodical changes in Ca2+ concentration act as cell sig- nals. Intracellular Ca2+ signals have been measured by Ca2+ sensitive fluorescent dye [1]. In this study, extracellular Ca2+ variation w ...
A new study is presented on the electro-deoxidation of porous TiO2 precursors in molten calcium chlo- ride electrolytes. It is shown that by reducing precursor open porosity from standard values of ≥25% to ∼11–12%, such that there is insufficient free volu ...
Stretch-elicited intracellular calcium (Ca(2+)) changes in individual smooth muscle cells in a ring of aorta were measured simultaneously with the force developed by the ring. A phasic increase in Ca(2+) was observed in 30% of the cells and a sus ...
The serum-amyloid-P-component-like pentraxin from Limulus polyphemus, a recently discovered pentraxin species and important effector protein of the hemolymph immune system, displays two distinct doubly stacked cyclic molecular aggregations, heptameric and ...
Centrin, an EF-hand calcium-binding protein, has been shown to be involved in the duplication of centrosomes, and Sfi1 (Suppressor of fermentation-induced loss of stress resistance protein 1) is one of its centrosomal targets. There are three isoforms of h ...
