Different NaCl-induced calcium signatures in the Arabidopsis thaliana ecotypes Col-0 and C24.
A common feature of stress signalling pathways are alterations in the concentration of cytosolic free calcium ([Ca2+]cyt), which allow the specific and rapid transmission of stress signals through a plant after exposure to a stress, such as salinity ...

TRPM8 levels determine tumor vulnerability to channel agonists
TRPM8 is a Ca2+ permissive channel. Regardless of the amount of its transcript, high levels of TRPM8 protein mark different tumors, including prostate, breast, colorectal, and lung carcinomas. Targeting TRPM8 with channel agonists stimulates inward calcium currents followed by emptying of cytosolic Ca2+ stores in cancer cells.

The root tip responds to mechanical stimulation with a transient increase in cytosolic free calcium as a possible second messenger. Although the root tip will grow through a heterogeneous soil nutrient supply, little is known of the consequence of ...

Expression and Characterization of i-Photina as an Efficient Photoprotein
Background: Nowadays photoproteins are excellent reporter systems as they have virtually no background. The most commonly studied photoprotein is aequorin. But because of it’s low quantum yield and very fast reaction kinetic this photoprotein assay

Coelenterazine is the most common imidazopyrazinone‐based luciferin in marine organisms. The electrochemical main peaks of coelenterazine are observed at approximately around 0.12 and 0.62 Vs in the cyclic voltammetry curve. Theoretical analysis suggests that coelenterazine is converted to the coelenteramide around 0.12 V, and the coelenteramide is ...

The main events in chaperone-assisted protein folding are the binding and ligand-induced release of substrate proteins. Here, we studied the location of denatured proteins previously bound to the GroEL chaperonin resulting from the action of the GroES co-

Abstract Variants in the CNGB3 gene, encoding the B3‐subunit of the cone photoreceptor cyclic nucleotide gated channel, are a major cause of autosomal recessive achromatopsia, a rare inherited retinal disease. The mutation spectrum of achromatopsia‐associated CNGB3 variants comprises all types of mutations, including those that are straightforward to ...
