Unraveling Adaptation in Eukaryotic Pathways: Lessons from Protocells [PDF]

, 2013
Eukaryotic adaptation pathways operate within wide-ranging environmental conditions without stimulus saturation. Despite numerous differences in the adaptation mechanisms employed by bacteria and eukaryotes, all require energy consumption.

Prokaryotic cells: structural organisation of the cytoskeleton and organelles

Memorias do Instituto Oswaldo Cruz, 2012
For many years, prokaryotic cells were distinguished from eukaryotic cells based on the simplicity of their cytoplasm, in which the presence of organelles and cytoskeletal structures had not been discovered.

Integrating Horizontal Gene Transfer and Common Descent to Depict Evolution and Contrast It with ‘‘Common Design [PDF]

, 2010
Horizontal gene transfer (HGT) and common descent interact in space and time. Because events of HGT co-occur with phylogenetic evolution, it is difficult to depict evolutionary patterns graphically. Tree-like representations of life’s diversification are

Microbiology: Mind the gaps in cellular evolution [PDF]

, 2017
Eukaryotic cells, with complex features such as membrane-bound nuclei, evolved from prokaryotic cells that lack these components.

Bacteriophages as Potential Clinical Immune Modulators

Microorganisms, 2023
Bacteriophages (phages for short) are bacteria-specific viruses that have been drawing attention when it comes to countering the ever-growing antibiotic bacterial resistance, and are being seen as one of the most promising technologies against multi ...

Ras inhibitors gate chemoattractant concentration range for chemotaxis through controlling GPCR-mediated adaptation and cell sensitivity

Frontiers in Immunology, 2022
Chemotaxis plays an essential role in recruitment of leukocytes to sites of inflammation. Eukaryotic cells sense chemoattractant with G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) and chemotax toward gradients with an enormous concentration range through ...

SF3b4: A Versatile Player in Eukaryotic Cells

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Spliceosomes are large protein-RNA complexes regulating pre-mRNA processing in eukaryotes. SF3b4 encodes a core subunit of the U2-type spliceosome, loss- or gain-of-function of which often associates with abnormal cell growth, leading to tumorigenesis ...
