Single-molecule studies of the dynamics and interactions of bacterial OXPHOS complexes [PDF]
arXiv, 2015 Although significant insight has been gained into biochemical, genetic and structural features of oxidative phosphorylation (OXPHOS) at the single-enzyme level, relatively little was known of how the component complexes function together in time and space until recently.

Molecular biology on a microfluidic chip [PDF]
, 2006 We have developed microfluidic chips for automating molecular biology processes such as gene ligation and gene transformation from nanolitre sample volumes with parallel architecture. Unlike conventional tube methods with cumbersome pipetting procedures,

Boundaries of photosynthesis: adaptations of carbon fixation in extreme environments
FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.Photosynthesis faces challenges from environmental extremes of temperature, pH, and salinity, limiting gas diffusion, modifying membrane fluidity, and destabilizing photochemical and biochemical reactions. Photosynthetic organisms have evolved unique adaptations overcoming these stresses and maintaining their photosynthetic activity.

T-DNA promoter tagging in Nicotiana tabacum : a thesis presented in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Philosophy in Genetics at Massey University, Palmerston North, New Zealand [PDF]
, 1997 Plant development is primarily controlled at the level of gene expression. In order to analyse this regulation it is necessary to isolate genes which are involved in organ development through cellular and tissue determination or which respond to ...

The Guanylate Cyclase C-cGMP Signaling Axis Opposes Intestinal Epithelial Injury and Neoplasia. [PDF]
, 2018 Guanylate cyclase C (GUCY2C) is a transmembrane receptor expressed on the luminal aspect of the intestinal epithelium. Its ligands include bacterial heat-stable enterotoxins responsible for traveler\u27s diarrhea, the endogenous peptide hormones ...

Bacterial Evolution: Dynamic Genomes and the Power of Transformation [PDF]
Current Biology, 2009 Virulence and avirulence genes carried on large, unstable pathogenicity islands (PAI) strongly influence the course and fate of host-pathogen interactions. A recent study shows how one such PAI can be rapidly transferred between two closely related bacteria via transformation in vivo, and how this horizontal gene transfer affects the fitness of the ...
