Diacylglycerol kinase η colocalizes and interacts with apoptosis signal-regulating kinase 3 in response to osmotic shock [PDF]
Biochemistry and Biophysics Reports, 2021 Diacylglycerol kinase (DGK) η translocates from the cytoplasm to punctate vehicles via osmotic shock. Apoptosis signal-regulating kinase (ASK) 3 (MAP kinase kinase kinase (MAPKKK) 15) is also reported to respond to osmotic shock.

Producing Tailocins from Phages Using Osmotic Shock and Benzalkonium Chloride. [PDF]
Phage (New Rochelle), 2023 In the light of the worldwide antimicrobial resistance crisis, new substitutes to antibiotics are urgently needed. Tailocins or phage tail-like bacteriocin particles, produced by bacteria for environmental competition, are a potential antimicrobial alternative to antibiotic treatment. Yet, the availability of characterized Tailocins is limited.

A plastid-targeted heat shock cognate 70-kDa protein confers osmotic stress tolerance by enhancing ROS scavenging capability [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Osmotic stress severely affects plant growth and development, resulting in massive loss of crop quality and quantity worldwide. The 70-kDa heat shock proteins (HSP70s) are highly conserved molecular chaperones that play essential roles in cellular ...

Dynamic response of the cell traction force to osmotic shock [PDF]
Microsystems & Nanoengineering, 2023 Osmotic pressure is vital to many physiological activities, such as cell proliferation, wound healing and disease treatment. However, how cells interact with the extracellular matrix (ECM) when subjected to osmotic shock remains unclear.

Formation of Giant Unilamellar Proteo-Liposomes by Osmotic Shock. [PDF]
Langmuir, 2015 Giant unilamellar vesicles (GUVs), composed of a phospholipid bilayer, are often used as a model system for cell membranes. However, the study of proteo-membrane interactions in this system is limited as the incorporation of integral and lipid-anchored proteins into GUVs remains challenging.

Selective Osmotic Shock (SOS)-Based Islet Isolation for Microencapsulation. [PDF]
Methods Mol Biol, 2017 Islet transplantation (IT) has recently been shown to be a promising alternative to pancreas transplantation for reversing diabetes. IT requires the isolation of the islets from the pancreas, and these islets can be used to fabricate a bio-artificial pancreas.

Cell-Biological Studies of Osmotic Shock Response in Streptomyces spp. [PDF]
J Bacteriol, 2017 ABSTRACTMost bacteria are likely to face osmotic challenges, but there is yet much to learn about how such environmental changes affect the architecture of bacterial cells. Here, we report a cell-biological study in model organisms of the genusStreptomyces, which are actinobacteria that grow in a highly polarized fashion to form branching hyphae.
