Identification and characterization of LFD-2, a predicted fringe protein required for membrane integrity during cell fusion in neurospora crassa.
The molecular mechanisms of membrane merger during somatic cell fusion in eukaryotic species are poorly understood. In the filamentous fungus Neurospora crassa, somatic cell fusion occurs between genetically identical germinated asexual spores (germlings) and between hyphae to form the interconnected network characteristic of a filamentous fungal colony. In N. crassa, two proteins have been ide...
متن کاملO-8: Molecular Mechanisms of Membrane Fusion Involved in Fertilization
Background: Assisted fertilization procedures are a currently widespread practice to regulate reproduction in humans and animals. The arising question is why the human being manipulating gametes to generate new individuals, if we do not understand yet the molecular mechanism of fertilization?. Successful completion of fertilization in mammals is dependent on three membrane fusion events: 1. the...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of genes required for cell-to-cell fusion in Neurospora crassa.
A screening procedure was used to identify cell fusion (hyphal anastomosis) mutants in the Neurospora crassa single gene deletion library. Mutants with alterations in 24 cell fusion genes required for cell fusion between conidial anastomosis tubes (CATs) were identified and characterized. The cell fusion genes identified included 14 genes that are likely to function in signal transduction pathw...
متن کاملIdentification and characterization of a novel cytoplasm protein ICF45 that is involved in cell cycle regulation.
A novel cytoplasm protein, interphase cytoplasm foci protein 45 kDa (ICF45), was identified by screening the cDNA expression library for HeLa cells with serum from an autoimmune patient. The complete cDNA sequence of ICF45 was determined to be 1.32 kb and to encode 298 amino acids with an apparent molecular mass of 45 kDa. The ICF45 transcripts were detected in different tissues and were relati...
متن کاملSynthesis and Characterization of a Novel Modified ANA Zeolite Membrane
A Novel modified Analcime (Na16 (Al16Si32O96) •16H2O) zeolite with a new molar ratio have been successfully synthesized. In order to investigate the role of the template, Different samples were synthesized with and without Tetramethylammoniumhydroxide (TMAOH) template through hydrothermal method. Different synthesis times (24, 36 and 72 hours) and molar ratios have been utilized. The optimum sa...
