β-heavy-spectrin stabilizes the constricting contractile ring during cytokinesis

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2022
Silva et al. show that plastin/PLST-1 and the β-heavy-spectrin/SMA-1 make distinct contributions to constriction of the cytokinetic contractile ring: PLST-1 promotes F-actin connectivity at the cell cortex and cortical tension that counteracts ring ...

Multiple Roles of the Low-Affinity Calcium Uptake System in Drechslerella dactyloides, a Nematode-Trapping Fungus That Forms Constricting Rings

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2023
(1) Background: the low-affinity calcium uptake system (LACS) has been shown to play a crucial role in the conidiation and formation of adhesive nets and knobs by nematode-trapping fungi (NTF), but its involvement in the formation of constricting rings ...

Robot-Assisted Repair of Bladder Rupture following Penile Ring Entrapment

open access: yesCase Reports in Urology, 2023
Penile rings have been used to help sustain erection and enhance sexual pleasure for centuries. Constriction of the penis reduces the outflow of blood from the cavernosal tissue.

Parachute Method: A Novel Method to Retrieve a Stuck Degloved Finger

open access: yesIndian Journal of Plastic Surgery, 2022
An entrapped finger is a relatively uncommon domestic injury. When the finger gets stuck proximal to the proximal interphalangeal joint, the resultant distal edema and inappropriate attempts at retrieval can result in circumferential degloving of the ...

Unique Opportunities of Island States to Transition to a Low-Carbon Mobility System [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Small islands developing states (SIDS) contribute minuscule proportions to global greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions and energy consumption, but are highly exposed to climate change impacts, in particular to extreme weather events and sea-level rise. However,

Anillin Phosphorylation Controls Timely Membrane Association and Successful Cytokinesis. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2017
During cytokinesis, a contractile ring generates the constricting force to divide a cell into two daughters. This ring is composed of filamentous actin and the motor protein myosin, along with additional structural and regulatory proteins, including ...

DdaCrz1, a C2H2-Type Transcription Factor, Regulates Growth, Conidiation, and Stress Resistance in the Nematode-Trapping Fungus Drechslerella dactyloides

open access: yesJournal of Fungi, 2022
The Ca2+/calmodulin-dependent signaling pathway regulates diverse cellular processes. Calcineurin is a calcium-dependent phosphatase acting in fungi mainly through Crz1, a zinc finger transcription factor.

Chromosome segregation impacts on cell growth and division site selection in Corynebacterium glutamicum. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Spatial and temporal regulation of bacterial cell division is imperative for the production of viable offspring. In many rod-shaped bacteria, regulatory systems such as the Min system and nucleoid occlusion ensure the high fidelity of midcell divisome ...
