Aequorin as a Useful Calcium-Sensing Reporter in Candida albicans
In Candida albicans, calcium ions (Ca2+) regulate the activity of several signaling pathways, especially the calcineurin signaling pathway. Ca2+ homeostasis is also important for cell polarization, hyphal extension, and plays a role in contact sensing ...

Increasing evidence indicates that water activated by plasma discharge, termed as plasma-activated water (PAW), can promote plant growth and enhance plant defence responses. Nevertheless, the signalling pathways activated in plants in response to PAW are

CANARY Technology: Working Principles of Biosensor, Detection of Infectious Pathogens
Reusable biosensors for the detection of biochemical analytes are widely used in clinical and laboratory practice. However, biosensors for the detection of pathogenic microorganisms are still under development or implementation.

Bioluminescence Monitoring of Neuronal Activity in Freely Moving Zebrafish Larvae
The proof of concept for bioluminescence monitoring of neural activity in zebrafish with the genetically encoded calcium indicator GFP-aequorin has been previously described (Naumann et al., 2010) but challenges remain.

Ca2+ Measurements in Mammalian Cells with Aequorin-based Probes
Aequorin is a Ca2+ sensitive photoprotein suitable to measure intracellular Ca2+ transients in mammalian cells. Thanks to recombinant cDNAs expression, aequorin can be specifically targeted to various subcellular compartments, thus allowing an accurate ...

Recombinant aequorin and recombinant semi-synthetic aequorins. Cellular Ca2+ ion indicators [PDF]
Properties of a recombinant aequorin were investigated in comparison with those of natural aequorin. In chromatographic behaviour the recombinant aequorin did not match any of ten isoaequorins tested, although it was very similar to aequorin J. Its sensitivity to Ca2+ was found to be higher than that of any isoaequorin except aequorin D.

Measurement of Intracellular Calcium Concentration in Pseudomonas aeruginosa
Characterization of the molecular mechanisms of calcium (Ca2+) regulation of bacterial physiology and virulence requires tools enabling measuring and monitoring the intracellular levels of free calcium (Ca2+in).

Salinity is one of the formidable environmental factors that affect plant growth and development and constrain agricultural productivity. Experimentally imposed short-term NaCl treatment triggers a transient increase in cytosolic free Ca2+ concentration (

Plant Immune Memory in Systemic Tissue Does Not Involve Changes in Rapid Calcium Signaling
Upon pathogen recognition, a transient rise in cytoplasmic calcium levels is one of the earliest events in plants and a prerequisite for defense initiation and signal propagation from a local site to systemic plant tissues.
