Getting bacterial cells into shape
The conformational state of a structural protein in bacteria can vary, depending on the concentration level of potassium ions or the nucleotide bound to it.

Effect of Sintering Temperature and Applied Load on Anode-Supported Electrodes for SOFC Application
Anode-supported cells are prepared by a sequence of hot pressing and co-sintering processes for solid oxide fuel cell (SOFC) applications. Commercially available porous anode tape (NiO/YSZ = 50 wt %/50 wt %), anode tape (NiO/YSZ = 30 wt %/70 wt %), and ...

Insights Into the Helical Shape Complex of Helicobacter pylori
One important factor that promotes the colonization of the upper digestive system of the human pathogen Helicobacter pylori is its helical cell shape. The bacteria cell shape is predominantly defined by its peptidoglycan cell wall. In rod-shaped species,

Cell Migration with Multiple Pseudopodia: Temporal and Spatial Sensing Models [PDF]
Cell migration triggered by pseudopodia (or “false feet”) is the most used method of locomotion. A 3D finite element model of a cell migrating over a 2D substrate is proposed, with a particular focus on the mechanical aspects of the biological phenomenon.

SHAPE-ID Toolkit Resources - Develop a Career in Inter- or Transdisciplinary Research
Early-stage researchers, in particular, can receive very mixed messages about the wisdom of pursuing an inter- or transdisciplinary research career which is often regarded as high risk within a research system that is still primarily structured on ...

Cells probe their environment and adapt their shape accordingly via the organization of focal adhesions and the actin cytoskeleton. In an earlier publication, we described the relationship between cell shape and physiology, for example, shape-induced ...

Shaping the T cell repertoire [PDF]
Today immunologists are well aware of positive and negative selection of developing T cells. This was very different almost three decades ago when MHC-restricted Ag recognition by T cells represented an enormous puzzle in the absence of data on the molecular nature of Ag recognition by T cells ...

Proteases regulate important biological functions. Here, we present the structural and functional characterization of three previously uncharacterized aspartic proteases in Pseudomonas aeruginosa. We show that these proteases have structural hallmarks of

Essential role of the endocytic site-associated protein Ecm25 in stress-induced cell elongation
Summary: How cells adopt a different morphology to cope with stress is not well understood. Here, we show that budding yeast Ecm25 associates with polarized endocytic sites and interacts with the polarity regulator Cdc42 and several late-stage endocytic ...

Cell-Responsive Shape Memory Polymers
Recent decades have seen substantial interest in the development and application of biocompatible shape memory polymers (SMPs), a class of “smart materials” that can respond to external stimuli.
