Ricin trafficking in plant and mammalian cells [PDF]

, 2011
Ricin is a heterodimeric plant protein that is potently toxic to mammalian and many other eukaryotic cells. It is synthesized and stored in the endosperm cells of maturing Ricinus communis seeds (castor beans).

The basic principles of DNA damage detection by the alkaline comet assay [PDF]

Arhiv za farmaciju
The Comet assay is a highly sensitive and rapid method for detecting DNA damage at the level of individual cells. It measures single-stranded and double-stranded DNA breaks, alkali-labile, incomplete excision repair and cross-linking sites.

Identification of autophosphorylation sites in eukaryotic elongation factor-2 kinase [PDF]

, 2012
eEF2K [eEF2 (eukaryotic elongation factor 2) kinase] phosphorylates and inactivates the translation elongation factor eEF2. eEF2K is not a member of the main eukaryotic protein kinase superfamily, but instead belongs to a small group of so-called ...

The origin of eukaryotes: the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells [PDF]

Proceedings of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 1999
Eukaryotes have long been thought to have arisen by evolving a nucleus, endomembrane, and cytoskeleton. In contrast, it was recently proposed that the first complex cells, which were actually proto-eukaryotes, arose simultaneously with the acquisition of mitochondria.

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 ...

Interactions between Bacteriophages and Eukaryotic Cells

Scientifica, 2020
As the name implies, bacteriophage is a bacterium-specific virus. It infects and kills the bacterial host. Bacteriophages have gained attention as alternative antimicrobial entities in the science community in the western world since the alarming rise of

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 ...

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 ...
