How Rice Responds to Temperature Changes and Defeats Heat Stress [PDF]
With the intensification of the greenhouse effect, a series of natural phenomena, such as global warming, are gradually recognized; when the ambient temperature increases to the extent that it causes heat stress in plants, agricultural production will ...

Thermosensing via transmembrane protein-lipid interactions.
Cell membranes are composed of a lipid bilayer containing proteins that cross and/or interact with lipids on either side of the two leaflets. The basic structure of cell membranes is this bilayer, composed of two opposing lipid monolayers with fascinating properties designed to perform all the functions the cell requires. To coordinate these functions,

RNA thermosensors facilitate Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae immune evasion. [PDF]
Bacterial meningitis is a major cause of death and disability in children worldwide. Two human restricted respiratory pathogens, Streptococcus pneumoniae and Haemophilus influenzae, are the major causative agents of bacterial meningitis, attributing to ...

Temperature-controlled molecular switches in mammalian cells. [PDF]
Temperature is an omnipresent factor impacting on many aspects of life. In bacteria and ectothermic eukaryotes, various thermosensors and temperature-controlled switches have been described, ranging from RNA thermometers controlling the heat shock ...

G protein-coupled receptor-based thermosensation determines temperature acclimatization of Caenorhabditis elegans [PDF]
Animals must sense and acclimatize to environmental temperatures for survival, yet their thermosensing mechanisms other than transient receptor potential (TRP) channels remain poorly understood.

Sorting nexin 11 knockout mice exhibit enhanced thermosensing behaviour [PDF]
Temperature sensing is an important adaptive mechanism for warm‐blooded animals such as humans. ThermoTRP ion channels are activated by distinct but overlapping physiological temperatures.

Uncommon opsin’s retinal isomer is involved in mammalian sperm thermotaxis [PDF]
In recent years it became apparent that, in mammals, rhodopsin and other opsins, known to act as photosensors in the visual system, are also present in spermatozoa, where they function as highly sensitive thermosensors for thermotaxis.

Ligand-Assisted Back Energy Transfer in Luminescent TbIII Complexes for Thermosensing Properties. [PDF]
A luminescent TbIII complex with a hexafluoroacetylacetone (hfa) ligand shows a characteristic back energy transfer (BEnT), which leads to high temperature sensitivity and potential application as a thermosensitive paint.
