Uncommon opsin’s retinal isomer is involved in mammalian sperm thermotaxis [PDF]

Scientific Reports
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.

Temperature-dependent regulation of bacterial cell division hydrolases by the coordinated action of a regulatory RNA and the ClpXP protease [PDF]

The Cell Surface
A defining feature of bacteria is the peptidoglycan cell wall which provides structural integrity and prevents osmotic lysis. While peptidoglycan hydrolases are required for daughter cell separation, dysregulated cell wall degradation may result in cell ...

Development of a Temperature Senor Based on 19F-labeled Phosphorylated Ubiquitin

Chinese Journal of Magnetic Resonance, 2021
Ubiquitin (Ub) is a signaling protein in eukaryotic cells, and it functions in the processes of protein degradation and DNA repairing. The published data indicated that the phosphorylation of Ub on Ser65 leads to two stable solution conformations, which ...
