Proximity-Dependent Biotinylation and Identification of Flagellar Proteins in Trypanosoma cruzi
The flagellated kinetoplastid protozoan and causative agent of human Chagas disease, Trypanosoma cruzi, inhabits both invertebrate and mammalian hosts over the course of its complex life cycle. In these disparate environments, T.

Localized Activation of Bending in Proximal, Medial and Distal Regions of Sea-Urchin Sperm Flagella [PDF]
Spermatozoa from the sea urchin, Colobocentrotus atratus, were partially demembranated by extraction with solutions containing Triton X-100 at a concentration which was insufficient to solubilize the membranes completely.

Axonemal regulation by curvature explains sperm flagellar waveform modulation [PDF]
Flagellar motility is critical to natural and many forms of assisted reproduction. Rhythmic beating and wave propagation by the flagellum propels sperm through fluid and enables modulation between penetrative progressive motion, activated side-to-side yaw and hyperactivated motility associated with detachment from epithelial binding.

Non-Sinusoidal Bending Waves of Sperm Flagella [PDF]
The analyses of flagellar movement stimulated by Sir James Gray's (1955) photographic study of the movement of sea-urchin spermatozoa have used sine waves as a convenient mathematical model for the active bending waves of flagella.

Modelling the Mechanics and Hydrodynamics of Swimming E. coli
The swimming properties of an E. coli-type model bacterium are investigated by mesoscale hy- drodynamic simulations, combining molecular dynamics simulations of the bacterium with the multiparticle particle collision dynamics method for the embedding ...

Escherichia coli EHEC Germany outbreak preliminary functional annotation using BG7 system [PDF]
We have annotated the European outbreak E. coli EHEC genome sequenced by BGI (6-2-2011) and assembled with MIRA by Nick Loman (6-2-2011 ). Our system BG7, Bacterial Genome annotation of Era7 Bioinformatics, predicts ORFs and annotates them based on ...

Thermodynamic limits of sperm swimming precision [PDF]
Sperm swimming is crucial to fertilise the egg, in nature and in assisted reproductive technologies. Modelling the sperm dynamics involves elasticity, hydrodynamics, internal active forces, and out-of-equilibrium noise. Here we demonstrate experimentally the relevance of energy dissipation for sperm beating fluctuations.

Building a flagellum in biological outer space [PDF]
Flagella, the rotary propellers on the surface of bacteria, present a paradigm for how cells build and operate complex molecular 'nanomachines'. Flagella grow at a constant rate to extend several times the length of the cell, and this is achieved by thousands of secreted structural subunits transiting through a central channel in the lengthening ...
