GAP-43 amino terminal peptides modulate growth cone morphology and neurite outgrowth.
The neuronal growth-associated protein GAP-43 is expressed maximally during development and regeneration, and is enriched at the cytosolic surface of the growth cone membrane. GAP-43 can activate the GTP-binding protein G(o) which is also a major component of the growth cone membrane. These findings have led to the hypothesis that GAP-43 might modulate neurite outgrowth by altering G-protein ac...
متن کاملColony morphology and growth in agarose as tests for spontaneous neoplastic transformation in vitro.
Adherent fibroblast-like cells from paired lines, one non-neoplastic and the other "spontaneously" transformed neoplastic, were compared in simultaneous in vivo and in vitro assays. The in vivo assay was the i.m. implantation of 10(6) or 10(7) cells in irradiated syngeneic animals, and the two in vitro assays were the evaluation of colony morphology on plastic and the enumeration of colony grow...
متن کاملMolecular strategy for identi¢cation inAspergillus sectionFlavi
Aspergillus flavus is one of the most common contaminants that produces aflatoxins in foodstuffs. It is also a human allergen and a pathogen of animals and plants. Aspergillus flavus is included in the Aspergillus section Flavi that comprises 11 closely related species producing different profiles of secondary metabolites. A six-step strategy has been developed that allows identification of nin...
متن کاملThe tip growth apparatus of Aspergillus nidulans.
Hyphal tip growth in fungi is important because of the economic and medical importance of fungi, and because it may be a useful model for polarized growth in other organisms. We have investigated the central questions of the roles of cytoskeletal elements and of the precise sites of exocytosis and endocytosis at the growing hyphal tip by using the model fungus Aspergillus nidulans. Time-lapse i...
متن کاملThe Effect of Oxygen Tension in the Medium on the Morphology and Growth Kinetics of Aspergillus nidulans
In glucose-limited continuous-flow cultures of Aspergillus nidulans, the mean length of hyphalsegments and the degree of branching were independent of the dissolved oxygen tension. However, at dissolved oxygen tensions below 18 mmHg a few large isodiametric cells were observed, and at oxygen tensions below 3.5 mmHg free conidia appeared in the medium (although differentiated conidiophores were ...
