The Fission Yeast Homeodomain Protein Yox1p Binds to MBF and Confines MBF-Dependent Cell-Cycle Transcription to G1-S via Negative Feedback [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
The regulation of the G1- to S-phase transition is critical for cell-cycle progression. This transition is driven by a transient transcriptional wave regulated by transcription factor complexes termed MBF/SBF in yeast and E2F-DP in mammals. Here we apply

The coordination of cell growth during fission yeast mating requires Ras1-GTP hydrolysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The spatial and temporal control of polarity is fundamental to the survival of all organisms. Cells define their polarity using highly conserved mechanisms that frequently rely upon the action of small GTPases, such as Ras and Cdc42.

Mitochondrial Membrane Dynamics—Functional Positioning of OPA1

open access: yesAntioxidants, 2018
The maintenance of mitochondrial energetics requires the proper regulation of mitochondrial morphology, and vice versa. Mitochondrial dynamins control mitochondrial morphology by mediating fission and fusion.

Loss of the Mitochondrial Fission GTPase Drp1 Contributes to Neurodegeneration in a Drosophila Model of Hereditary Spastic Paraplegia

open access: yesBrain Sciences, 2020
Mitochondrial morphology, distribution and function are maintained by the opposing forces of mitochondrial fission and fusion, the perturbation of which gives rise to several neurodegenerative disorders.

Novel Insights and Current Evidence for Mechanisms of Atherosclerosis: Mitochondrial Dynamics as a Potential Therapeutic Target

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Cardiovascular disease (CVD) is the main cause of death worldwide. Atherosclerosis is the underlying pathological basis of CVD. Mitochondrial homeostasis is maintained through the dynamic processes of fusion and fission. Mitochondria are involved in many

Fission yeast bub1 is a mitotic centromere protein essential for the spindle checkpoint and the preservation of correct ploidy through mitosis [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The spindle checkpoint ensures proper chromosome segregation by delaying anaphase until all chromosomes are correctly attached to the mitotic spindle.

Determination of fission product yields of 235U using gamma ray spectroscopy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
textIt is important to have a method of experimentally calculating fission product yields. Statistical calculations and simulations produce very large uncertainties.

Investigation of the surface charge behaviour of ettringite: Influence of pH, calcium, and sulphate ions

open access: yesHeliyon
Ettringite is an important mineral that contributes to the overall performance of cementitious materials. Knowledge of the surface charge behaviour of a solid is necessary for a mechanistic description of surface processes such as adsorption or particle ...

Mitochondrial Dynamics: Pathogenesis and Therapeutic Targets of Vascular Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2021
Vascular diseases, particularly atherosclerosis, are associated with high morbidity and mortality. Endothelial cell (EC) or vascular smooth muscle cell (VSMC) dysfunction leads to blood vessel abnormalities, which cause a series of vascular diseases. The

Fission–fusion populations [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2009
What is fission–fusion and why is it important? Grouping among animals is ubiquitous, from swarms of insects, schools of fish and flocks of birds to herds of ungulates, troops of primates, and vast interconnected human urban settlements. In many grouping species, across genera and scales of organization, group formation is a highly dynamic process ...
