Abstract Modern technological evolution witnesses a fast‐paced progress in the design, science, and technology of light‐driven micro/nanomachines in the recent past. These micromachines have found enormous applications as micro/nanoscale manipulators, micromachined space exploration components, nano‐sized cell positioning and control, and micro ...

The evolutionary history of histone H3 suggests a deep eukaryotic root of chromatin modifying mechanisms [PDF]
Background The phenotype of an organism is an outcome of both its genotype, encoding the primary sequence of proteins, and the developmental orchestration of gene expression.

Structure of a mitochondrial ATP synthase with bound native cardiolipin
The mitochondrial ATP synthase fuels eukaryotic cells with chemical energy. Here we report the cryo-EM structure of a divergent ATP synthase dimer from mitochondria of Euglena gracilis, a member of the phylum Euglenozoa that also includes human parasites.

The Cryopreservation of Euglena gracilis [PDF]
A method for the cryopreservation of Euglena gracilis is described; for 26 strains the recovery on thawing was at least 30%. Methanol (10%, v/v) was the only effective cryo-protectant for freezing to, and thawing from, -196 °C, though the recovery of cells depended on the rates of cooling and warming.

Two Decades of Optogenetic Tools: A Retrospective and a Look Ahead
Optogenetics provides up to millisecond scale, cell type‐specific control of biology using light‐sensitive proteins. This review chronicles two decades of tool development, from microbial rhodopsins and photoactivated enzymes to allosteric switches, surveys broad applications in neuroscience, molecular and cell biology, cardiology, immunology, and ...

Multi‐Module Micro/Nanorobots for Biomedical and Environmental Remediation Applications
Multi‐module microrobots (MNRs) have overcome the limitations of single‐module systems by integrating components such as propeller, actuator, manipulator, and imaging modalities. They show promise in biomedical applications, such as targeted drug delivery and tissue repair, as well as in environmental remediation, including pollutant removal.

Implementation of Microbe-Based Neurocomputing with Euglena Cells Confined in Micro-Aquariums [PDF]
Using real Euglena cells in a micro-aquarium as photoreactive biomaterials, we demonstrated Euglena-based neurocomputing with two-dimensional optical feedback using the modified Hopfield–Tank algorithm.

Extensive molecular tinkering in the evolution of the membrane attachment mode of the Rheb GTPase [PDF]
Rheb is a conserved and widespread Ras-like GTPase involved in cell growth regulation mediated by the (m)TORC1 kinase complex and implicated in tumourigenesis in humans. Rheb function depends on its association with membranes via prenylated C-terminus, a
