متن کاملMorphology, Motility, and Signaling Morphology and Signaling
Combining experimental data and computer modeling, Fink et al. (page 929) demonstrate that cellular geometry is important in the spatiotemporal control of intracellular signaling. The researchers examined the dynamics of inositol-1,4,5-trisphosphate (InsP 3 )-mediated calcium signaling in neuroblastoma cells with complex morphology, and also simulated InsP 3 signaling in a computer model called...
متن کاملPolymer confinement and bacterial gliding motility.
Cyanobacteria and myxobacteria use slime secretion for gliding motility over surfaces. The slime is produced by the nozzle-like pores located on the bacteria surface. To understand the mechanism of gliding motion and its relation to slime polymerization, we have performed molecular dynamics simulations of a molecular nozzle with growing inside polymer chains. These simulations show that the com...
متن کاملCalcium signaling in neuronal motility.
Neuronal motility is a fundamental feature that underlies the development, regeneration, and plasticity of the nervous system. Two major developmental events--directed migration of neuronal precursor cells to the proper positions and guided elongation of axons to their target cells--depend on large-scale neuronal motility. At a finer scale, motility is also manifested in many aspects of neurona...
متن کاملThe protein network of bacterial motility
Motility is achieved in most bacterial species by the flagellar apparatus. It consists of dozens of different proteins with thousands of individual subunits. The published literature about bacterial chemotaxis and flagella documented 51 protein-protein interactions (PPIs) so far. We have screened whole genome two-hybrid arrays of Treponema pallidum and Campylobacter jejuni for PPIs involving kn...
