Extracellular Matrix in Plants and Animals: Hooks and Locks for Viruses
The extracellular matrix (ECM) of animal and plants cells plays important roles in viral diseases. While in animal cells extracellular matrix components can be exploited by viruses for recognition, attachment and entry, the plant cell wall acts as a ...

Pathogens produce effector proteins to manipulate their hosts. While most effectors act autonomously, some fungal effectors act in pairs and rely on each other for function.

Modelling the movement of transformed cell populations. [PDF]
The aim of this work was to analyze migrating cell populations, in search of motion models able to accurately describe the features of normal and transformed fibroblast movement, under different experimental conditions.

Analysis of Dielectrophoretic Movement of Cell Flowing in Micro-Channel Related to Shape of Cell [PDF]
Dielectrophoresis has been tried to be applied to cell sorting technology in previous studies. In the present study, the movement of mouse myoblast cells flowing through the perpendicular electric field in a micro- channel has been analyzed in vitro.

A gradient method for the quantitative analysis of cell movement and tissue flow and its application to the analysis of multicellular Dictyostelium development [PDF]
We describe the application of a novel image processing method, which allows quantitative analysis of cell and tissue movement in a series of digitized video images. The result is a vector velocity field showing average direction and velocity of movement

Tobacco mosaic virus: a pioneer to cell–to–cell movement [PDF]
Cell–to–cell movement of tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) is used to illustrate macromolecular traffic through plant intercellular connections, the plasmodesmata. This transport process is mediated by a specialized viral movement protein, P30. In the initially infected cell, P30 is produced by transcription of a subgenomic RNA derived from the invading virus.

Tobamovirus Replicase Coding Region Is Involved in Cell-to-Cell Movement [PDF]
ABSTRACT Tobacco mosaic virus (TMV) encodes a 30-kDa movement protein (MP) which enables viral movement from cell to cell. It is, however, unclear whether the 126- and 183-kDa replicase proteins are involved in the cell-to-cell movement of TMV.

Generation and regulation of microtubule network asymmetry to drive cell polarity [PDF]
Microtubules control cell architecture by serving as a scaffold for intracellular transport, signaling, and organelle positioning. Microtubules are intrinsically polarized, and their orientation, density, and post-translational modifications both respond

The FAM deubiquitylating enzyme localizes to multiple points of protein trafficking in epithelia, where it associates with E-cadherin and beta-catenin [PDF]
Copyright © 2004 by The American Society for Cell Biology.Ubiquitylation is a necessary step in the endocytosis and lysosomal trafficking of many plasma membrane proteins and can also influence protein trafficking in the biosynthetic pathway.
