Conidiation in Neurospora crassa: vegetative reproduction by a model fungus [PDF]
Asexual development, conidiation, in the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa is a simple developmental process that starts with the growth of aerial hyphae.

Differential proteome analysis of pea roots at the early stages of symbiosis with nodule bacteria
In this paper, we have analyzed changes in the proteomic spectrum of pea Pisum sativum L. roots during inoculation with rhizobial bacteria with the aim of revealing new regulators of symbiosis development. To study the changes in the proteome spectrum of

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

Small GTP-binding protein Ran is regulated by posttranslational lysine acetylation [PDF]
Significance The small GTPase Ran plays fundamental roles in cellular processes such as nucleo-cytoplasmic transport, mitotic spindle formation, and nuclear envelope assembly. Recently, Ran was found to be lysine acetylated, among others, in functionally important regions such as switch I and switch II.

Microtubule-severing enzymes: From cellular functions to molecular mechanism. [PDF]
Microtubule-severing enzymes generate internal breaks in microtubules. They are conserved in eukaryotes from ciliates to mammals, and their function is important in diverse cellular processes ranging from cilia biogenesis to cell division, phototropism ...

Phytochrome regulates GTP‐binding protein activity in the envelope of pea nuclei [PDF]
Three GTP‐binding proteins with apparent molecular masses of 27, 28 and 30 kDa have been detected in isolated nuclei of etiolated pea plumules. After LDS‐PAGE and transfer to nitrocellulose these proteins bind [32p]GTP in the presence of excess ATP, suggesting that they are monomeric G proteins.

Gem-induced cytoskeleton remodeling increases cellular migration of HTLV-1-infected cells, formation of infected-to-target T-cell conjugates and viral transmission [PDF]
Efficient HTLV-1 viral transmission occurs through cell-to-cell contacts. The Tax viral transcriptional activator protein facilitates this process. Using a comparative transcriptomic analysis, we recently identified a series of genes up-regulated in HTLV-

Vascular Growth in the Fetal Lung [PDF]
The structure of the lung is truly remarkable. It is primarily composed of three branched tubular networks (the airway, pulmonary artery and vein, bronchial artery and vein) which supply blood and air to the site of gas exchange and which maintain ...
