Cytoplasmic streaming in plant cells: the role of wall slip

, 2012
We present a computer simulation study, via lattice Boltzmann simulations, of a microscopic model for cytoplasmic streaming in algal cells such as those of Chara corallina.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)

Epigenetic alterations in bioaccumulators of cadmium: Lessons from mammalian kidneys and plants

Environment International
Faced with unpredictable changes in global weather patterns, release and redistribution of metals through land erosion and water movements add to the increasing use of metals in industrial activities causing high levels of environmental pollution and ...

Plant stress RNA-seq Nexus: a stress-specific transcriptome database in plant cells

BMC Genomics, 2018
Background Abiotic and biotic stresses severely affect the growth and reproduction of plants and crops. Determining the critical molecular mechanisms and cellular processes in response to stresses will provide biological insight for addressing both ...

Characteristics of C-4 photosynthesis in stems and petioles of C-3 flowering plants [PDF]

, 2002
Most plants are known as C-3 plants because the first product of photosynthetic CO2 fixation is a three-carbon compound. C-4 plants, which use an alternative pathway in which the first product is a four-carbon compound, have evolved independently many ...

Enteropathogenic E. coli shows delayed attachment and host response in human jejunum organoid‐derived monolayers compared to HeLa cells

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Enteropathogenic E. coli (EPEC) infects the human intestinal epithelium, resulting in severe illness and diarrhoea. In this study, we compared the infection of cancer‐derived cell lines with human organoid‐derived models of the small intestine. We observed a delayed in attachment, inflammation and cell death on primary cells, indicating that host ...

Oxidative Protein-Folding Systems in Plant Cells

International Journal of Cell Biology, 2013
Plants are unique among eukaryotes in having evolved organelles: the protein storage vacuole, protein body, and chloroplast. Disulfide transfer pathways that function in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and chloroplasts of plants play critical roles in the

On the track of transfer cells formation by specialized plant-parasitic nematodes

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2014
Transfer cells are ubiquitous plant cells that play an important role in plant development as well as in responses to biotic and abiotic stresses.

Organoids in pediatric cancer research

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Organoid technology has revolutionized cancer research, yet its application in pediatric oncology remains limited. Recent advances have enabled the development of pediatric tumor organoids, offering new insights into disease biology, treatment response, and interactions with the tumor microenvironment.

The Ralstonia solanacearum Type III Effector RipAY Is Phosphorylated in Plant Cells to Modulate Its Enzymatic Activity

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Most bacterial pathogens subvert plant cellular functions using effector proteins delivered inside plant cells. In the plant pathogen Ralstonia solanacearum, several of these effectors contain domains with predicted enzymatic activities, including ...
