Shape Models of Lucy Targets (3548) Eurybates and (21900) Orus from Disk-integrated Photometry

Stephan Hellmich

We use our new light curves, along with historical data, to determine the rotation state, photometric properties, and convex shape models of the targets of the Lucy mission (3548) Eurybates and (21900) Orus. We determine a retrograde spin for both targets, ...

Haplosufficiency of PAX3 for melanoma development in Tyr: NRASQ61K; Cdkn2a-/- mice allows identification and sorting of melanoma cells using a Pax3GFP reporter allele

Friedrich Beermann

The role of the Pax3 gene in embryonic development of pigment cells is well characterized. By contrast, the function of Pax3 in melanoma development is controversial. Indeed, data obtained from cultured cells suggest that PAX3 may contribute to melanomagen ...

Use of red autofluorescence for monitoring prodiginine biosynthesis

Paul Guichard

Prodigiosin-like pigments or prodiginines (PdGs) are promising drugs owing to their reported antitumor, antibiotic, and immunosuppressive activities. These natural compounds are produced by several bacteria, including Streptomyces coelicolor and Serratia m ...

Anthocyanins and betalains as light-harvesting pigments for dye-sensitized solar cells

Michael Graetzel, Mohammad Khaja Nazeeruddin, Jun Ho Yum, Alessandro Sinopoli

We present the photoelectrochemical properties of dye-sensitized solar cells using natural pigments containing betalains and anthocyanins as sensitizers. The dyes extracted from grape, mulberry, blackberry, red Sicilian orange, Sicilian prickly pear, eggpl ...
