Structure and function of bacterial dynamin-like proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Membrane dynamics are essential for numerous cellular processes in eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells. In eukaryotic cells, membrane fusion and fission are often catalyzed by large GTPases of the dynamin protein family. These proteins couple GTP hydrolysis

Perturbing dynamin reveals potent effects on the Drosophila circadian clock. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2009
BACKGROUND:Transcriptional feedback loops are central to circadian clock function. However, the role of neural activity and membrane events in molecular rhythms in the fruit fly Drosophila is unclear.

Eukaryotic-Like Virus Budding in Archaea

open access: yesmBio, 2016
Similar to many eukaryotic viruses (and unlike bacteriophages), viruses infecting archaea are often encased in lipid-containing envelopes. However, the mechanisms of their morphogenesis and egress remain unexplored.

Inhomogeneous Canham–Helfrich Abscission in Catenoid Necks under Critical Membrane Mosaicity

open access: yesMembranes, 2023
The mechanical effects of membrane compositional inhomogeneities are analyzed in a process analogous to neck formation in cellular membranes. We cast on the Canham–Helfrich model of fluid membranes with both the spontaneous curvature and the surface ...

Translating whole‐genome doubling into precision medicine in cancer

open access: yesMolecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Whole‐genome doubling creates a WGD‐positive tumor state characterized by persistent chromosomal instability, karyotypic diversification, and cellular stress. These same biological pressures drive aggressive tumor evolution while exposing therapeutic vulnerabilities, providing a rationale for WGD‐informed precision medicine. Whole‐genome doubling (WGD)

Protein Amphipathic Helix Insertion: A Mechanism to Induce Membrane Fission

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019
One of the fundamental features of biomembranes is the ability to fuse or to separate. These processes called respectively membrane fusion and fission are central in the homeostasis of events such as those related to intracellular membrane traffic ...

Fully Additive Vertical Organic Electrochemical Transistors on Renewable and Compostable Substrates Enable Ultrasensitive Bioelectronics

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Fully additive vertical organic electrochemical transistors (vOECTs) with channel‐length of 226 nm on a 50 µm compostable substrate achieve >106 current modulation and ∼36 mS transconductance. Ion‐selective integration enables 1.1 mA dec−1 sensitivity and 36 µm detection limit, highlighting a scalable platform for sustainable electronics and ...
