The Bacterial Cytoskeleton [PDF]
One of the pleasures of teaching introductory biology courses is learning new things about old, familiar subjects … such as the differences between eukaryotes and prokaryotes. For a eukaryotic cell biologist, such learning usually entails examining how bacteria function, in ways other than how they replicate and transcribe DNA and how they synthesize ...

The cytoskeleton and disease [PDF]
AbstractCytoskeletal research in recent years has revolutionized cell biology and biomedicine. The cytoskeleton spans the cytoplasm and interconnects the cell nucleus with the extracellular matrix, thereby forming a structural link between molecules involved in cell communication on the one hand, and gene expression on the other. Since the cytoskeleton

The evolution of the cytoskeleton [PDF]
The cytoskeleton is a system of intracellular filaments crucial for cell shape, division, and function in all three domains of life. The simple cytoskeletons of prokaryotes show surprising plasticity in composition, with none of the core filament-forming proteins conserved in all lineages.

Identifying Regulatory Posttranslational Modifications of PD-L1: A Focus on Monoubiquitinaton
A set of high-affinity, high-specificity posttranslational modification (PTM) enrichment tools was developed to generate an unbiased snapshot of four key PTM profiles (tyrosine phosphorylation, acetylation, ubiquitination, and SUMOylation 2/3) for the ...

The actin regulator profilin 1 is functionally associated with the mammalian centrosome
The actin regulator profilin 1 recently shown to control microtubule elongation at the cell periphery is found to interact with the γ-tubulin ring complex and tune centrosomal microtubule nucleation.

Natural killer (NK) cells are innate effector lymphocytes with strong antitumor effects against hematologic malignancies such as chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). However, NK cells fail to control CLL progression on the long term.

Motile cilia and eukaryotic flagella are specific cell protrusions that are conserved from protists to humans. They are supported by a skeleton composed of uniquely organized microtubules—nine peripheral doublets and two central singlets (9 × 2 + 2 ...

The antigen-mediated activation of mast cells initiates signaling events leading to their degranulation, to the release of inflammatory mediators, and to the synthesis of cytokines and chemokines.

Background: Sleeping sickness is caused by the extracellular parasite Trypanosoma brucei and is associated with neuroinflammation and neuropsychiatric disorders, including disruption of sleep/wake patterns, and is now recognised as a circadian disorder ...

The cytoskeleton in spermatogenesis [PDF]
Abstract As germ cells progress through spermatogenesis, they undergo a dramatic transformation, wherein a single, diploid spermatogonial stem cell ultimately produces thousands of highly specialised, haploid spermatozoa. The cytoskeleton is an integral aspect of all eukaryotic cells.
