Clathrin-Mediated Endocytosis Delivers Proteolytically Active Phytaspases Into Plant Cells
Phytaspases belong to the family of plant subtilisin-like proteases and are distinct from other family members, as they have strict and rarely occurring aspartate cleavage specificity and unusual localization dynamics.

Mitochondrial nucleoproteins in rye leaves
Some properties of mitochondrial nucleoproteins sedimentable at 100 000 g, corresponding to the hyaloplasmic ribosomes, were compared with those found for two other subfractions isolated from mitochondria of primary rye (Secale cereale) leaves, the ...

Quantitative studies of nucleic acid in the cell by micro-spectrophotometry I. The critique and improvement of the microspectrophotometry [PDF]
Some critical experiments have been carried out on the microspectrophotometry using the lymphocytes of a mouse, stained with Feulgen reaction, revealing that most reliable value can be attained by illuminating the material with a small spot-light and ...

The Antioxidant Cofactor Alpha-Lipoic Acid May Control Endogenous Formaldehyde Metabolism in Mammals
The healthy human body contains small amounts of metabolic formaldehyde (FA) that mainly results from methanol oxidation by pectin methylesterase, which is active in a vegetable diet and in the gastrointestinal microbiome.

The effect of neutrophil extracellular traps in venous thrombosis
Neutrophil extracellular traps (NETs) as special release products of neutrophils have received extensive attention. They are composed of decondensed chromatin and coated with nucleoproteins, including histones and some granulosa proteins. NETs can form a

Lipids contribute to epigenetic control via chromatin structure and functions
Isolated cases of experimental evidence over the last few decades have shown that, where specifically tested, both prokaryotes and eukaryotes have specific lipid molecules bound to nucleoproteins of the genome.

Differential Behaviours and Preferential Bindings of Influenza Nucleoproteins on Importins-α
Influenza viruses are negative single-stranded RNA viruses with nuclear transcription and replication. They enter the nucleus by using the cellular importin-α/-β nuclear import machinery.

Antimitotic action of cornin as a biologically active polypeptide. I. Biochemical properties of cornin [PDF]
We succeeded in the extraction of a substance from beef cornea and rabbit muscle, that markedly inhibits mitosis of sea urchin eggs. The substance extracted from beef cornea is non-dialysable and it can be separated into three fractions by DEAE-cellulose
