HcRed, a Genetically Encoded Fluorescent Binary Cross-Linking Agent for Cross-Linking of Mitochondrial ATP Synthase in Saccharomyces cerevisiae
Genetically encoded fluorescent cross-linking agents represent powerful tools useful both for visualising and modulating protein interactions in living cells. The far-red fluorescent protein HcRed, which is fluorescent only in a dimer form, can be used to promote the homo-dimerisation of target proteins, and thereby yield useful information about biological processes. We have in yeast cells exp...
متن کاملCross-linking ATP synthase complexes in vivo eliminates mitochondrial cristae.
We have used the tetrameric nature of the fluorescent protein DsRed to cross-link F(1)F(O)-ATPase complexes incorporating a subunit gamma-DsRed fusion protein in vivo. Cells expressing such a fusion protein have impaired growth relative to control cells. Strikingly, fluorescence microscopy of these cells revealed aberrant mitochondrial morphology. Electron microscopy of cell sections revealed t...
متن کاملChemical cross linking versus high energy electron beam cross linking of HDPE: electrical properties study
Cross linking of high density polyethylene (HDPE) was first performed via high energy10 Mev electron beam (EB) irradiation. HDPE was also cross linked withDicumyle peroxide (DCP).The gel content of samples was determined by solvent extraction.Degree of cross linking was evaluated by hot set apparatus; as well .In order to clarify the effectof nature of cross linking, correlation of electrical p...
متن کاملA Genetically Encoded aza-Michael Acceptor for Covalent Cross-Linking of Protein–Receptor Complexes
Selective covalent bond formation at a protein-protein interface potentially can be achieved by genetically introducing into a protein an appropriately "tuned" electrophilic unnatural amino acid that reacts with a native nucleophilic residue in its cognate receptor upon complex formation. We have evolved orthogonal aminoacyl-tRNA synthetase/tRNACUA pairs that genetically encode three aza-Michae...
متن کاملcollagen cross-linking
patients with keratoconus constitute a large proportion of patients suffering from anterior segment disorders. as of this time, however, its pathogenesis has not yet been elucidated. a reduction in cross-link between collagen molecules has been observed in keratoconic eyes as compared to normal ones. present approaches only address refractive errors resulting from the abnormal abnormal corneal ...
