A genome-wide resource of cell cycle and cell shape genes of fission yeast [PDF]

open access: yesOpen Biology, 2013
To identify near complete sets of genes required for the cell cycle and cell shape, we have visually screened a genome-wide gene deletion library of 4843 fission yeast deletion mutants (95.7% of total protein encoding genes) for their effects on these ...

Growth Phase Dependent Cell Shape of Haloarcula

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2021
Several haloarchaea are reported to be pleomorphic, while others exhibit remarkable shapes, such as squares. Recently, Haloferax volcanii was found to alter its morphology during growth.

Mechano-chemical regulation of complex cell shape formation: Epidermal pavement cells—A case study

open access: yesQuantitative Plant Biology, 2023
All plant cells are encased by walls, which provide structural support and control their morphology. How plant cells regulate the deposition of the wall to generate complex shapes is a topic of ongoing research.

Shaping the cell fate [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2016
Shapes of the cell have fascinated our curiosity since the discovery of the cell by Robert Hooke in 16651 and by Anton van Leeuwenhoek slightly later2 using the state-of-the-art microscopes of the ...

Metabolism Shapes the Cell [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Bacteriology, 2017
ABSTRACT More than 5 decades of work support the idea that cell envelope synthesis, including the inward growth of cell division, is tightly coordinated with DNA replication and protein synthesis through central metabolism. Remarkably, no unifying model exists to account for how these fundamentally disparate processes are functionally coupled.

Mechanisms shaping cell membranes [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2014
Membranes of intracellular organelles are characterized by large curvatures with radii of the order of 10-30nm. While, generally, membrane curvature can be a consequence of any asymmetry between the membrane monolayers, generation of large curvatures requires the action of mechanisms based on specialized proteins.

Mesothelial Cells Exhibit Characteristics of Perivascular Cells in an In Vitro Angiogenesis Assay

open access: yesCells, 2023
Mesothelial cells have been shown to have remarkable plasticity towards mesenchymal cell types during development and in disease situations. Here, we have characterized the potential of mesothelial cells to undergo changes toward perivascular cells using

Shape‐Dependent Optoelectronic Cell Lysis [PDF]

open access: yesAngewandte Chemie, 2014
AbstractWe show an electrical method to break open living cells amongst a population of different cell types, where cell selection is based upon their shape. We implement the technique on an optoelectronic platform, where light, focused onto a semiconductor surface from a video projector creates a reconfigurable pattern of electrodes.

Relationship between Flower Color and Cellular Physicochemical Factors in Bletilla striata

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2023
Flower color not only determines the quality and commercial value of ornamental plants, but it also plays a vital role in ecological processes such as pollinator attraction.

3D time series analysis of cell shape using Laplacian approaches [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Background: Fundamental cellular processes such as cell movement, division or food uptake critically depend on cells being able to change shape. Fast acquisition of three-dimensional image time series has now become possible, but we lack efficient tools
