Detection of GFP-labeled Proteins by Electron Microscopy

Examination of Lung Parenchyma by Electron Microscopy

In this paper many of the principal struc­ture of the Moral Lung were studied with the help of Electron Microscopy. Detailed descrip­tion was given of Granular Pneumocytes, Membranous Pneumocytes, Macrophages, and Alveolar Capillaries. A discussion followed on the form and function of Granular Pneumo­cytes.  Acknowledgements  I am grateful to the Reza Shah Pahlavi Foundation for its generou...

Detection of rotavirus by Latex Agglutination Test (Rotales); Comparison with Electron Microscopy and Complement Fixation Test

Escherichia coli detection by GFP-labeled lysozyme-inactivated T4 bacteriophage.

Escherichia coli has been used as an indicator of the fecal contamination of water and food, identifying potential health hazards. In this study, an E. coli-specific bacteriophage, T4, was used to detect E. coli bacteria. The T4 phage small outer capsid (SOC) protein was used to present green fluorescent protein (GFP), an easily detectable marker protein, on the phage capsid. To inactivate phag...

Isolation of Herpetosiphon giganteus and Ultrastructure Analysis by Electron Microscopy

Herpetosiphon giganteus is a filamentous gliding bacterium. Gliding motility is the movement of the cells over surfaces without the aid of flagella. The mechanism responsible for bacterial gliding motility has not been known and there are only a few data on Herpetosiphon giganteus. The aim of this study was to observe the ultrastructure and negative staining of isolated strains of Herpetosiphon...

Live Imaging of GFP-labeled Proteins in Drosophila Oocytes

The Drosophila oocyte has been established as a versatile system for investigating fundamental questions such as cytoskeletal function, cell organization, and organelle structure and function. The availability of various GFP-tagged proteins means that many cellular processes can be monitored in living cells over the course of minutes or hours, and using this technique, processes such as RNP tra...
