Unprecedented synthesis of a 14-membered hexaazamacrocycle
The transformation of 3-[(ethoxymethylene)amino]-1-methyl-1H-pyrazole-4-carbonitrile into the 14-membered macrocycle, 2,10-dimethyl-2,8,10,16-tetrahydrodipyrazolo[3,4-e:3',4'-l][1,2,4,8,9,11]hexaazacyclotetradecine-4,12-diamine, by the reaction with ...

Spatial Confinement Causes Lifetime Enhancement and Expansion of Vortex Rings with Positive Filament Tension [PDF]
We study the impact of spatial confinement on the dynamics of three-dimensional excitation vortices with circular filaments. In a chemically active medium we observe a decreased contraction of such scroll rings and even expanding ones, despite of their ...

Flow patterns generated by oblate medusan jellyfish: field measurements and laboratory analyses [PDF]
Flow patterns generated by medusan swimmers such as jellyfish are known to differ according the morphology of the various animal species. Oblate medusae have been previously observed to generate vortex ring structures during the propulsive cycle ...

Bub2 regulation of cytokinesis and septation in budding yeast
Background The mitotic exit network (MEN) is required for events at the end of mitosis such as degradation of mitotic cyclins and cytokinesis. Bub2 and its binding partner Bfa1 act as a GTPase activating protein (GAP) to negatively regulate the MEN ...

Motor activity dependent and independent functions for Myosin II in cytokinesis contribute to actomyosin ring assembly and contraction in Schizosaccharomyces pombe [PDF]
Cytokinesis depends on a contractile actomyosin ring in many eukaryotes [1, 2, 3]. Myosin II is a key component of the actomyosin ring, although whether it functions as a motor or as an actin cross-linker to exert its essential role is disputed [1, 4, 5].

Animal cell cytokinesis: the role of dynamic changes in the plasma membrane proteome and lipidome [PDF]
In animal cells, cytokinesis is characterised by the formation of the mitotic spindle that signals the assembly of an actomyosin ring between the spindle poles.

A model of membrane contraction predicting initiation and completion of bacterial cell division [PDF]
Bacterial cell division involves a complex and dynamic sequence of events whereby polymers of the protein FtsZ assemble at the division plane and rearrange to achieve the goal of contracting the cell membrane at the site of cell division, thus dividing ...

Roles Of Hof1p, Bni1p, Bnr1p, And Myo1p In Cytokinesis In Saccharomyces Cerevisiae [PDF]
Cytokinesis in Saccharomyces cerevisiae occurs by the concerted action of the actomyosin system and septum formation. Here we report on the roles of HOF1,BNI1, and BNR1 in cytokinesis, focusing on Hof1p.
