Actin-like proteins MreB and Mbl are required for proper cell shape and for viability in B. subtilis[1, 2] and form dynamic helical filaments underneath th...
be more ancient than previously recognized, and the role of the catenins in cell polarity predates the evolution of Wnt signaling and classical cadherins....
Although more than 200 volatile organic compounds (VOCs) have been identified in human alveolar breath, their origins are still mostly unknown. An attempt ...
How much of cellular organization is dictated by global cell polarity cues as opposed to local interactions between cellular components? Does cellular ...
To study the cell type specificity of the direction of replication of the human c-myc genes and the relationship of replication polarity to transcriptional...
In evolution, survival depends on global polarity information relayed to the cell in part by orientation of the MT and actin filament cytoskeletons and the chirality of the basal body to determine left and right coordinates within a ...
The Saccharomyces cerevisiae Cdc42 protein, a member of the Ras superfamily of low-molecular-weight GTP-binding proteins, is involved in the control of cel...
The 3' untranslated region (3'-UTR) has been implicated in the estrogen stabilization of hepatic Xenopus laevis vitellogenin mRNA. We used RNA gel mobility shift assays to demonstrate that Xenopus liver contains a factor which binds with...
