Signal transduction: hanging on a scaffold.
Recent data concerning scaffolding proteins profoundly challenge our conceptions of multicomponent signal transduction systems. Recent studies of the phototransduction system in Drosophila suggest two points. First, scaffolding markedly limits the possibilities for signal amplification. Second, the methods generally available to study signal transduction may be too crude to assess the in vivo r...
متن کاملCarbon nanotubes on a spider silk scaffold
Understanding the compatibility between spider silk and conducting materials is essential to advance the use of spider silk in electronic applications. Spider silk is tough, but becomes soft when exposed to water. Here we report a strong affinity of amine-functionalised multi-walled carbon nanotubes for spider silk, with coating assisted by a water and mechanical shear method. The nanotubes adh...
متن کاملLocating a mitochondrial scaffold on the map
T he ability of mitochondria to perform numerous different functions is refl ected in the organelle's complex architecture. The mitochondrial inner membrane, in particular, is organized into distinct regions that carry out specialized functions (1). Boundary regions are where the inner membrane contacts the outer membrane to facilitate protein import and respiratory complex assembly. Once assem...
متن کاملKilling Like a Girl: Gendered Gaming and Girl Gamers' Visibility
Approaches to gender and computer gaming have been dominated by textual and content analysis at the expense of broader understandings of gaming. This paper examines computer games through gendered game content, game spaces and activities. The paper suggests that despite the popular stereotype of the computer gamer as an antisocial male teenager, there is increasing evidence of female gaming. Th...
متن کاملIn vitro Co-Culture of Human Skin Keratinocytes and Fibroblasts on a Biocompatible and Biodegradable Scaffold
Background: Extensive full-thickness burns require replacement of both epidermis and dermis. In designing skin replacements, the goal has been to re-create this model and make a product which has both essential components. Methods: In the present study, we developed procedures for establishing confluent, stratified layers of cultured human keratinocytes on the surface of modified collagen-chito...
