A preliminary treatment of the genus Campylopus (Musci: Dicranaceae) in Central America [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
There are 26 species of Campylopus in Central America. They are divided into three groups on the basis of two characters: the presence or absence in the costa of a ventral layer of enlarged, hyaline cells and the presence or absence in the stem of an ...

Protist predation can favour cooperation within bacterial species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Here, we studied how protist predation affects cooperation in the opportunistic pathogen bacterium Pseudomonas aeruginosa, which uses quorum sensing (QS) cell-to-cell signalling to regulate the production of public goods.

Toward Wireless Implantable Robotic Systems Driven by Magnetic Field for Personalized Therapy

open access: yesAdvanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Robotic materials are playing an increasingly vital role in enabling sensing and actuation at small scales. This perspective highlights recent advances in magnetic materials and magnetically actuated devices for wireless sensing, actuation, and energy harvesting toward implantable robotic systems for closed‐loop therapy.

Sirtuin-mediated nuclear differentiation and programmed degradation in Tetrahymena

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2011
Background The NAD+-dependent histone deacetylases, known as "sirtuins", participate in a variety of processes critical for single- and multi-cellular life.

Ciliary propulsion of objects in tubes: wall drag on swimming Tetrahymena (Ciliata) in the presence of mucin and other long-chain polymers [PDF]

open access: yes, 1976
The lubrication effect of three long-chain polymers - mucin, methylcellulose and Ficoll - on ciliary propulsion in tubes is measured by plotting the relative velocities of swimming cilitates as a function of the tube bore diameter.

Quantum Mechanics for the Swimming of Micro-Organism in Two Dimensions

open access: yes, 1994
In two dimensional fluid, there are only two classes of swimming ways of micro-organisms, {\it i.e.}, ciliated and flagellated motions. Towards understanding of this fact, we analyze the swimming problem by using $w_{1+\infty}$ and/or $W_{1+\infty ...

CCDC41 Drives Oocyte Meiotic Progression by Promoting Rab11a/Rab7‐Positive Vesicle Fusion with Target Membranes

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
CCDC41 is essential for meiotic maturation in mouse oocytes through regulating Rab7‐positive endosomes fusion with lysosomes and Rab11a‐positive vesicle fusion with the plasma membrane. Abstract Coiled‐coil domain‐containing protein 41 (CCDC41), a core component of centriolar distal appendages involved in centriole assembly and ciliary vesicle docking,

Testing of Great Bay Oysters for Two Protozoan Pathogens [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Two protozoan pathogens, Haplosporidium nelsoni (MSX) and Perkinsus marinus (Dermo) are known to be present in Great Bay oysters. With funds provided by the Piscataqua Region Estuaries Partnership (PREP), the Marine Fisheries Division of New Hampshire ...

Structural basis of template-boundary definition in Tetrahymena telomerase. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Telomerase is required to maintain repetitive G-rich telomeric DNA sequences at chromosome ends. To do so, the telomerase reverse transcriptase (TERT) subunit reiteratively uses a small region of the integral telomerase RNA (TER) as a template.
