The pleiotropic transcriptional regulator NlpR contributes to the modulation of nitrogen metabolism, lipogenesis and triacylglycerol accumulation in oleaginous rhodococci [PDF]
The regulatory mechanisms involved in lipogenesis and triacylglycerol (TAG) accumulation are largely unknown in oleaginous rhodococci. In this study a regulatory protein (here called NlpR: Nitrogen lipid Regulator), which contributes to the modulation of

ABSTRACT Cells have an intrinsic ability to rapidly respond to environmental change to regulate cell cycle progression and membrane organisation, thereby affecting cell growth and division. The actin cytoskeleton is a highly dynamic complex of proteins that can rapidly reorganise to change the growth pattern of a cell.

Non-nutritive sweeteners are widely used in food and medicines to reduce energy content without compromising flavor. Herein, we report that Rebaudioside A (Reb A), a natural, non-nutritive sweetener, can extend both the lifespan and healthspan of C ...

Meteoritic Abundances of Fatty Acids and Potential Reaction Pathways in Planetesimals [PDF]
The origin of fatty acids on the prebiotic Earth is important as they likely formed the encapsulating membranes of the first protocells. Carbon-rich meteorites (i.e., carbonaceous chondrites) such as Murchison and Tagish Lake are well known to contain these molecules, and their delivery to the early planet by intense early meteorite bombardments ...

We show that charge inversion, i.e. interfacial charges attracting counterions in excess of their own nominal charge, is a general effect that takes place in most charged systems next to aqueous solutions with multivalent ions and identify three ...

ABSTRACT Of the three types of cytoskeleton known in animals—actin, microtubules, and intermediate filaments—only actin and microtubules exist in plants. Both play important roles in cellular shaping, organelle movement, organization of the endomembrane system, and cell signaling.

At 24-26 degrees C, force-area isotherms show that unionized dipalmitoyl phosphatidic acid forms a solid-condensed film while unionized egg and dioleoyl phosphatidic acids form liquid-expanded films. Surface area is a characteristic feature of a specific

Electron transport phosphorylation in rumen butyrivibrios: unprecedented ATP yield for glucose fermentation to butyrate. [PDF]
From a genomic analysis of rumen butyrivibrios (Butyrivibrio and Pseudobutyrivibrio sp.), we have re-evaluated the contribution of electron transport phosphorylation (ETP) to ATP formation in this group.
