Infrared nanoscopy and tomography of intracellular structures

open access: yesCommunications Biology, 2021
Kanevche and colleagues present a combined imaging method employing scattering-type scanning near-field optical microscopy and Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy to visualize the internal structures of cells. Demonstrating their method on eukaryotic

Synthetic repetitive extragenic palindromic (REP) sequence as an efficient mRNA stabilizer for protein production and metabolic engineering in prokaryotic cells

open access: yesBiotechnology and Bioengineering, 2018
In prokaryotic cells, 3′–5′ exonucleases can attenuate messenger RNA (mRNA) directionally from the direction of the 3′–5′ untranslated region (UTR), and thus improving the stability of mRNAs without influencing normal cell growth and metabolism is a key ...

Estimate of the sequenced proportion of the global prokaryotic genome

open access: yesMicrobiome, 2020
Background Sequencing prokaryotic genomes has revolutionized our understanding of the many roles played by microorganisms. However, the cell and taxon proportions of genome-sequenced bacteria or archaea on earth remain unknown.

A bacteriophage tubulin harnesses dynamic instability to center DNA in infected cells. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Dynamic instability, polarity, and spatiotemporal organization are hallmarks of the microtubule cytoskeleton that allow formation of complex structures such as the eukaryotic spindle. No similar structure has been identified in prokaryotes.

Observation of Cytotoxicity of Phosphonium Derivatives Is Explained: Metabolism Inhibition and Adhesion Alteration

open access: yesAntibiotics, 2023
The search for new antibiotics, substances that kill prokaryotic cells and do not kill eukaryotic cells, is an urgent need for modern medicine. Among the most promising are derivatives of triphenylphosphonium, which can protect the infected organs of ...

The teneurin C-terminal domain possesses nuclease activity and is apoptogenic. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Teneurins are type 2 transmembrane proteins expressed by developing neurons during periods of synaptogenesis and apoptosis. Neurons expressing teneurin-1 synapse with other teneurin-1-expressing neurons, and neurons expressing teneurin-2 synapse with ...

The Burkholderia pseudomallei intracellular ‘TRANSITome’

open access: yesNature Communications, 2021
Prokaryotic cell transcriptomics has been limited to mixed or sub-population dynamics and individual cells within heterogeneous populations. Here the authors develop a ‘TRANSITomic’ approach to profile transcriptomes of single Burkholderia pseudomallei ...
