An autonomous molecular transport system using DNAs and motor proteins in molecular communication [PDF]
2007 2nd Bio-Inspired Models of Network, Information and Computing Systems, 2007 This paper describes a molecular transport system in molecular communication that uses the machinery in living cells. The molecular transport system requires: 1) loading of the specified cargo molecules at a loading site (at a sender); 2) transport of the loaded cargoes to an unloading site (to a receiver); and 3) unloading of the transported cargoes ...

Molecular Imaging of Microglial Activation in Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis [PDF]
, 2012 There is growing evidence of activated microglia and inflammatory processes in the cerebral cortex in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS). Activated microglia is characterized by increased expression of the 18 kDa translocator protein (TSPO) in the brain

The Architectural Dynamics of the Bacterial Flagellar Motor Switch
Biomolecules, 2020 The rotary bacterial flagellar motor is remarkable in biochemistry for its highly synchronized operation and amplification during switching of rotation sense. The motor is part of the flagellar basal body, a complex multi-protein assembly.

Gene profiling of identified neurons to dissect molecular mechanisms involved in spinal reflex assembly [PDF]
, 2010 The central question during my PhD studies was to understand the molecular mechanisms and genetic cascades controlling the sequential specification of distinct classes of dorsal root ganglia (DRG) sensory neurons, with a particular focus on genes ...

N-Propionylmannosamine stimulates axonal elongation in a murine model of sciatic nerve injury
Neural Regeneration Research, 2015 Increasing evidence indicates that sialic acid plays an important role during nerve regeneration. Sialic acids can be modified in vitro as well as in vivo using metabolic oligosaccharide engineering of the N-acyl side chain.

An experimental study of the putative mechanism of a synthetic autonomous rotary DNA nanomotor [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2017 DNA has been used to construct a wide variety of nanoscale molecular devices. Inspiration for such synthetic molecular machines is frequently drawn from protein motors, which are naturally occurring and ubiquitous.

Molecular motors in nanobiotechnology: Protein and DNA based molecular motors: A review
Results in ChemistryMolecular motor can be defined as the collection of a separate number of molecular features (that is, a supramolecular structure) which has been developed to carry out a function through the mechanical movements of its components, which occurs when it is appropriately stimulated externally. Therefore, molecular motors include a part with a motor, which
