Modeling and insights into the structural basis of chemical acute aquatic toxicity
It has become a top global regulatory priority to prevent and control pollution from the release of synthetic chemicals, which continues to affect the aquatic communities. In the past decades, computational tools were largely used to significantly reduce

Two-dimensional gravitactic bioconvection in a protozoan (tetrahymena pyriformis) culture [PDF]
Gravitactic bioconvective patterns created by Tetrahymena pyriformis in a Hele-Shaw apparatus were realized and compared with theoretical results. There were found to be two thresholds for bioconvection development: the first indicates the transition ...

Enzymatic synthesis and decarboxylation of phosphatidylserine in Tetrahymena pyriformis
Cell-free extracts of the protozoan Tetrahymena pyriformis have been found to catalyze the following reactions: Phosphatidylethanolamine+L-Serine⇌Phosphatidylserine+EthanolaminePhosphatidylserine→Phosphatidylethanolamine+CO2Net:L-Serine→Ethanolamine ...

Nucleus-specific linker histones Hho1 and Mlh1 form distinct protein interactions during growth, starvation and development in Tetrahymena thermophila [PDF]
Chromatin organization influences most aspects of gene expression regulation. The linker histone H1, along with the core histones, is a key component of eukaryotic chromatin.

Model for processive nucleotide and repeat additions by the telomerase [PDF]
A model is presented to describe the nucleotide and repeat addition processivity by the telomerase. In the model, the processive nucleotide addition is implemented on the basis of two requirements: One is that stem IV loop stimulates the chemical reaction of nucleotide incorporation, and the other one is the existence of an ssRNA-binding site adjacent ...

A biosensor for cadmium based on bioconvective patterns [PDF]
An 'in vitro' method for monitoring cadmium, one of the most lethal bivalent heavy metals, can detect biologically active levels. The effects of cadmium tend to concentrate in protozoa far above natural levels and therein begin transferring through ...
