Actin pushes in bizarre places
Actin pushes in bizarre places ewis Tilney has always had a gift for looking for biology in strange places. His publishing history, he says, reads like a “Rogue’s gallery” of plants, fungi, parasites, and plenty of unusual invertebrate creatures. “It’s just ridiculous, and nowadays I couldn’t get away with it.” His colleagues say it is part of his genius to look in unusual systems to answer fun...
متن کاملMicrofluidics pushes forward microscopy analysis of actin dynamics
Actin filaments, an essential part of the cytoskeleton, drive various cell processes, during which they elongate, disassemble and form different architectures. Over the past 30 years, the study of actin dynamics has relied mainly on bulk solution measurements, which revealed the kinetics and thermodynamics of actin self-assembly at barbed and pointed ends, its control by ATP hydrolysis and its ...
متن کاملMicrobial Ecology Pushes Frontiers in Biotechnology
Due to their diverse metabolic potentials and established manipulation techniques, microbes are considered to be excellent materials for biotechnology. Pure cultures of microbes are exploited in industrial processes to produce alcohols, organic acids, and polymeric materials (2). Furthermore, human society has a long history of using mixed microbial cultures to produce fermented foods (8). Natu...
متن کاملUK pushes stem cell support
Britain is backing stem cell research with new international links and domestic projects within an EU still willing to fund certain types of research. And the British Prime Minister, Tony Blair, used his trip to California last month to back the field in spite of sharp opposition from President George Bush, who used his first presidential veto to block federal funding for human embryonic stem c...
متن کاملListeria Motility: Biophysics Pushes Things Forward
Recent studies have provided important new insights into the forces exerted by actin polymerization during Listeria motility. The results also expose deficiencies in our understanding of this process, and suggest future directions for complete understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved.
