A proteomic and phosphoproteomic analysis of Oryza sativa plasma membrane and vacuolar membrane [PDF]

, 2008
Proteomic and phosphoproteomic analyses of rice shoot and root tonoplast-enriched and plasma membrane-enriched membrane fractions were carried out to look at tissue-specific expression, and to identify putative regulatory sites of membrane transport ...

Role for dithiolopyrrolones in disrupting bacterial metal homeostasis [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2017
Significance Antibiotic resistance is a rising health threat worldwide, against which novel strategies are urgently needed. We have taken a systems approach to examine a potent and underexplored class of broad-spectrum antibiotics, the dithiolopyrrolones (DTPs).

Tissue Engineered Human Elastic Cartilage From Primary Auricular Chondrocytes for Ear Reconstruction

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.
Despite over three decades of research, no tissue‐engineered solution for auricular reconstruction in microtia patients has reached clinical translation. The key challenge lies in generating functional elastic cartilage ex vivo. Here, we integrate synergistic cell‐biomaterial strategies to engineer auricular grafts with mechanical and histological ...
