Thermosensor Desk Measures Membrane Thickness [PDF]

open access: yesBiophysical Journal, 2011
The bacterium Bacillus subtilis adjusts the composition of membrane lipids to cope with temperature variations. The histidine kinase DesK is a five-pass transmembrane thermosensor suited to remodel membrane fluidity in B. subtilis according to temperature. To understand the mechanism of sensing, individual transmembrane segments (TMS) were fused to the

Molecular mechanism of thermosensory function of human heat shock transcription factor Hsf1

open access: yeseLife, 2016
The heat shock response is a universal homeostatic cell autonomous reaction of organisms to cope with adverse environmental conditions. In mammalian cells, this response is mediated by the heat shock transcription factor Hsf1, which is monomeric in ...

Feeling the Heat: The Campylobacter jejuni HrcA Transcriptional Repressor Is an Intrinsic Protein Thermosensor

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2021
The heat-shock response, a universal protective mechanism consisting of a transcriptional reprogramming of the cellular transcriptome, results in the accumulation of proteins which counteract the deleterious effects of heat-stress on cellular ...

Traceless Regulation of Genetic Circuitry. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Energy‐based, as opposed to molecular, control offers unprecedented improvements in key circuit parameters. This review summarizes the fundamentals of such traceless switches, categorizes them by trigger modalities, and compares and contrasts distinct advantages as well as shortcomings of each kind.

Crystal structure of a thermophilic GrpE protein: insight into thermosensing function for the DnaK chaperone system. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
A homodimeric GrpE protein functions as a nucleotide exchange factor of the eubacterium DnaK molecular chaperone system. The co-chaperone GrpE accelerates ADP dissociation from, and promotes ATP binding to, DnaK, which cooperatively facilitates the DnaK ...

ELECTRONIC THERMOSENSORS FOR UNMANNED SHIPS

open access: yesShipping & Navigation, 2022
The article deals with temperature sensors, the operation of which is based on the use of a change of voltage on a p-n junction of the semiconductor transistor at the set direct current. It sets out the theoretical justification for requirements for the structure of diodes and transistors used as temperature sensors.

The extraordinary AFD thermosensor of C. elegans [PDF]

open access: yesPflügers Archiv - European Journal of Physiology, 2017
The nematode C. elegans exhibits complex thermal experience-dependent navigation behaviors in response to environmental temperature changes of as little as 0.01°C over a > 10°C temperature range. The remarkable thermosensory abilities of this animal are mediated primarily via the single pair of AFD sensory neurons in its head.
