WHI-2 Regulates Intercellular Communication via a MAP Kinase Signaling Complex [PDF]
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020 The formation of the fungal mycelial network is facilitated by somatic cell fusion of germinating asexual spores (or germlings). Neurospora crassa germlings in close proximity display chemotropic growth that is dependent upon an intracellular network of ...

Generating heterokaryotic cells via bacterial cell-cell fusion [PDF]
Microbiology Spectrum, 2021 Cell-cell fusion is fundamentally important for tissue repair, virus transmission, and genetic recombination, among other functions. Fusion has been mainly studied in eukaryotic cells and lipid vesicles, while cell-cell fusion in bacteria is less well characterized, due to the cell wall acting as a fusion-limiting barrier.

Separate, separated, and together: the transcriptional program of the Clostridium acetobutylicum-Clostridium ljungdahlii syntrophy leading to interspecies cell fusion [PDF]
mSystemsSyntrophic cocultures (hitherto assumed to be commensalistic) of Clostridium acetobutylicum and Clostridium ljungdahlii, whereby CO2 and H2 produced by the former feed the latter, result in interspecies cell fusion involving large-scale exchange of ...

Cell fusion as a driver of metastasis: re-evaluating an old hypothesis in the age of cancer heterogeneity [PDF]
Frontiers in ImmunologyNumerous studies have investigated the molecular mechanisms and signalling pathways underlying cancer metastasis, as there is still no effective treatment for this terminal stage of the disease.

Confusion on Cell Fusion [PDF]
Cellular and Molecular Gastroenterology and Hepatology, 2021 Cell fusion, whereby two cells merge to create one, has been widely described in development, but the role of cell fusion in tissue regeneration and homeostasis remains an open debate. We propose that the regenerative capacity of the gut can be fully attributed to extensive plasticity of the intestinal epithelium.

Flagging fusion: Phosphatidylserine signaling in cell–cell fusion [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2021 Formations of myofibers, osteoclasts, syncytiotrophoblasts, and fertilized zygotes share a common step, cell-cell fusion. Recent years have brought about considerable progress in identifying some of the proteins involved in these and other cell-fusion processes.

Virus-Mediated Cell-Cell Fusion [PDF]
International Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020 Cell-cell fusion between eukaryotic cells is a general process involved in many physiological and pathological conditions, including infections by bacteria, parasites, and viruses. As obligate intracellular pathogens, viruses use intracellular machineries and pathways for efficient replication in their host target cells. Interestingly, certain viruses,

Cells, 2022 Cre/loxP recombination is a well-established technique increasingly used for modifying DNA both in vitro and in vivo. Nucleotide alterations can be edited in the genomes of mammalian cells, and genetic switches can be designed to target the expression or

Preparation of Monoclonal Antibody against Deoxynivalenol and Development of Immunoassays
Toxins, 2022 Fusarium toxins are the largest group of mycotoxins, which contain more than 140 known secondary metabolites of fungi. Deoxynivalenol (DON) is one of the most important compounds of this class due to its high toxicity and its potential to harm mankind ...

Reciprocal t(9;22) ABL/BCR fusion proteins: leukemogenic potential and effects on B cell commitment [PDF]
, 2009 Background: t(9;22) is a balanced translocation, and the chromosome 22 breakpoints (Philadelphia chromosome – Ph+) determine formation of different fusion genes that are associated with either Ph+ acute lymphatic leukemia (Ph+ ALL) or chronic myeloid ...
