Inheritance through the cytoplasm
AbstractMost heritable information in eukaryotic cells is encoded in the nuclear genome, with inheritance patterns following classic Mendelian segregation. Genomes residing in the cytoplasm, however, prove to be a peculiar exception to this rule. Cytoplasmic genetic elements are generally maternally inherited, although there are several exceptions ...

Long Non-coding RNAs in the Cytoplasm
An enormous amount of long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) transcribed from eukaryotic genome are important regulators in different aspects of cellular events. Cytoplasm is the residence and the site of action for many lncRNAs.

The redox state of free nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide in the cytoplasm and mitochondria of rat liver [PDF]
1. The concentrations of the oxidized and reduced substrates of the lactate-, beta-hydroxybutyrate- and glutamate-dehydrogenase systems were measured in rat livers freeze-clamped as soon as possible after death. The substrates of these dehydrogenases are

Elucidating the Origin of Heterogeneous Anomalous Diffusion in the Cytoplasm of Mammalian Cells. [PDF]
Diffusion of tracer particles in the cytoplasm of mammalian cells is often anomalous with a marked heterogeneity even within individual particle trajectories.

Mechanical Characterization and Modelling of Subcellular Components of Oocytes
The early steps of embryogenesis are controlled exclusively by the quality of oocyte that linked closely to its mechanical properties. The mechanical properties of an oocyte were commonly characterized by assuming it was homogeneous such that the result ...

Nanoscale Viscosity of Cytoplasm Is Conserved in Human Cell Lines
Metabolic reactions in living cells are limited by diffusion of reagents in the cytoplasm. Any attempt to quantify the kinetics of biochemical reactions in the cytosol should be preceded by careful measurements of the physical properties of the cellular ...

3D Computational Modeling of Bleb Initiation Dynamics
Blebbing occurs in cells under high cortical tension when the membrane locally detaches from the actin cortex, resulting in pressure-driven flow of the cytosol and membrane expansion. Some cells use blebs as leading edge protrusions during cell migration,

Starvation induces shrinkage of the bacterial cytoplasm
Significance Bacterial cells constantly face nutrient fluctuations in their natural environments. While previous studies have identified gene expression changes upon nutrient depletion, much less well known is how cellular morphology and cytoplasmic ...
