An ancestral secretory apparatus in the protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis [PDF]
The protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis belongs to one of the earliest diverged eukaryotic lineages. This is also reflected in a simple intracellular organization, as Giardia lacks common subcellular compartments such as mitochondria, peroxisomes ...

Variations in zearalenone activation in avian food species [PDF]
Zearalenone (ZEA), a widely distributed oestrogenic fusariotoxin, constitutes a potential risk for human and animal health. ZEA is metabolised to the main metabolites identified in vitro and in vivo: alpha-zearalenol (α-ZOL) and beta-zearalenol (β-ZOL ...

The subcellular distribution of platelet lipids labeled by acetate-l-14C
The lipids of intact human platelets were labeled in vitro with acetate-1-14C, and the distribution of radioactivity in individual fatty acids and in lipid classes was examined in platelet subcellular fractions separated by sucrose density gradient ...

cis-acting sequences and trans-acting factors in the localization of mRNA for mitochondrial ribosomal proteins [PDF]
mRNA localization is a conserved post-transcriptional process crucial for a variety of systems. Although several mechanisms have been identified, emerging evidence suggests that most transcripts reach the protein functional site by moving along ...

Cholesterol Depletion Alters Cardiomyocyte Subcellular Signaling and Increases Contractility. [PDF]
Membrane cholesterol levels play an important factor in regulating cell function. Sarcolemmal cholesterol is concentrated in lipid rafts and caveolae, which are flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane.

SEDLIN forms homodimers: characterisation of SEDLIN mutations and their interactions with transcription factors MBP1, PITX1 and SF1 [PDF]
BACKGROUND SEDLIN, a 140 amino acid subunit of the Transport Protein Particle (TRAPP) complex, is ubiquitously expressed and interacts with the transcription factors c-myc promoter-binding protein 1 (MBP1), pituitary homeobox 1 (PITX1) and steroidogenic ...
