Transitions Regulating the Timing of Cytokinesis in Embryonic Cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2002
Anaphase, mitotic exit, and cytokinesis proceed in rapid succession, and while mitotic exit is a requirement for cytokinesis in yeast [1, 2], it may not be a direct requirement for furrow initiation in animal cells [3, 4].

Rappaport rules: Cleavage furrow induction in animal cells

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1997
Cytokinesis in animal cells is achieved by a circumferential ring of differentiated cortex, enriched in actin and myosin, that contracts to divide the cytoplasm (reviewed in ref. 1). The placement of the contractile ring is specified by the mitotic apparatus such that contraction bisects the mitotic spindle, ensuring that division occurs between the ...

Structural insights into lacto‐N‐biose I recognition by a family 32 carbohydrate‐binding module from Bifidobacterium bifidum

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Bifidobacterium bifidum establishes symbiosis with infants by metabolizing lacto‐N‐biose I (LNB) from human milk oligosaccharides (HMOs). The extracellular multidomain enzyme LnbB drives this process, releasing LNB via its catalytic glycoside hydrolase family 20 (GH20) lacto‐N‐biosidase domain.

PtdIns(4,5)P2 Functions at the Cleavage Furrow during Cytokinesis [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2005
Phosphoinositides play important roles in regulating the cytoskeleton and vesicle trafficking, potentially important processes at the cleavage furrow. However, it remains unclear which, if any, of the phosphoinositides play a role during cytokinesis. A systematic analysis to determine if any of the phosphoinositides might be present or of functional ...

Functional Materials for Environmental Energy Harvesting in Smart Agriculture via Triboelectric Nanogenerators

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
This review explores functional and responsive materials for triboelectric nanogenerators (TENGs) in sustainable smart agriculture. It examines how particulate contamination and dirt affect charge transfer and efficiency. Environmental challenges and strategies to enhance durability and responsiveness are outlined, including active functional layers ...

The distribution of cytoplasmic microtubules throughout the cell cycle of the centric diatom Stephanopyxis turris: their role in nuclear migration and positioning the mitotic spindle during cytokinesis. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1986
The cell cycle of the marine centric diatom Stephanopyxis turris consists of a series of spatially and temporally well-ordered events. We have used immunofluorescence microscopy to examine the role of cytoplasmic microtubules in these events.

Centrocortin Cooperates with Centrosomin to Organize Drosophila Embryonic Cleavage Furrows [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2009
In the Drosophila early embryo, the centrosome coordinates assembly of cleavage furrows. Currently, the molecular pathway that links the centrosome and the cortical microfilaments is unknown. In centrosomin (cnn) mutants, in which the centriole forms but the centrosome pericentriolar material (PCM) fails to assemble, actin microfilaments are not ...

Multifunctional Microstructured Surfaces by Microcontact Printing of Reactive Microgels

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Reactive poly(N‐vinylcaprolactam‐co‐glycidyl methacrylate) microgels are used as functional inks to create surface‐grafted arrays on glass via microcontact printing. The patterns (10–50 µm widths and spacings) enable stable binding and post‐functionalization with dyes and peptides.
