An electrostatic model for biological cell division [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2010
Probably the most fundamental processes for biological systems is their ability to create themselves through the use of cell division and cell differentiation. In this work a simple physical model is proposed for biological cell division. The model consists of a positive ionic gradient across the cell membrane, and concentration of charge at the nodes ...

Process for control of cell division [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
A method of controlling mitosis of biological cells was developed, which involved inducing a change in the intracellular ionic hierarchy accompanying the cellular electrical transmembrane potential difference (Esubm) of the cells. The ionic hierarchy may

The solution supramolecular structure of α2 → 8 polysialic acid suggests a structural cause for its low immunogenicity

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
α2 → 8 polysialic acid elicits poor immunogenicity. Small‐angle scattering shows a supramolecular structure with parallel‐chain binding, although in different forms at μm and mm calcium. The major histocompatibility complex requires molecular weights around 2000 Da to produce antibodies, and 2000 Da polysialic oligomers will bind in these structures ...

"Cullin 4 makes its mark on chromatin"

open access: yesCell Division, 2006
Cullin 4 (Cul4), a member of the evolutionally conserved cullin protein family, serves as a scaffold to assemble multisubunit ubiquitin E3 ligase complexes.

SIRT4 is an independent prognostic factor in bladder cancer and inhibits bladder cancer growth by suppressing autophagy

open access: yesCell Division, 2023
Background Nucleosome-localized sirtuin 4 (SIRT4) was found to function as an oncogene and tumor suppressor gene in different tumors. However, the clinical significance of SIRT4 in bladder urothelial carcinoma (BLCA) has not been assessed, nor has the ...

The power of microRNA regulation—insights into immunity and metabolism

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
MicroRNAs are emerging as crucial regulators at the intersection of metabolism and immunity. This review examines how miRNAs coordinate glucose and lipid metabolism while simultaneously modulating T‐cell development and immune responses. Moreover, it highlights how cutting‐edge artificial intelligence applications can identify miRNA biomarkers ...

Mechanisms for the temporal regulation of substrate ubiquitination by the anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome

open access: yesCell Division, 2019
The anaphase-promoting complex/cyclosome (APC/C) is a multi-subunit, multifunctional ubiquitin ligase that controls the temporal degradation of numerous cell cycle regulatory proteins to direct the unidirectional cell cycle phases.

"ATR activation in response to ionizing radiation: still ATM territory"

open access: yesCell Division, 2006
Unrepaired DNA double-strand breaks (DSBs) are a major cause for genomic instability. Therefore, upon detection of a DSB a rapid response must be assembled to coordinate the proper repair/signaling of the lesion or the elimination of cells with ...

Conditions for cell size homeostasis: A stochastic hybrid systems approach [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2016
A ubiquitous feature of living cells is their growth over time followed by division into daughter cells. How isogenic cell populations maintain size homeostasis, i.e., a narrow distribution of cell size, is an intriguing fundamental problem. We model cell size using a stochastic hybrid system, where a cell grows exponentially in size (volume) over time
