Nanosecond-scale kinetics of nematocyst discharge
dispersed genes in different lineages. First, the cluster may have been broken up in organisms with elevated rates of genome evolution, such as C. intestinalis, C. elegans and Drosophila melanogaster. This implies that cluster integrity in other lineages may not be due to selection. Conversely, clusters may have been maintained in some lineages due to selection. This would imply a relaxation of...
متن کاملThe nematocyst extract of Hydra attenuata causes single channel events in lipid bilayers.
The nematocyst extract of Hydra attenuata causes single conductance events in reconstituted planar lipid membranes as well as in inside-out patches derived from liposomes. The smallest single channel conductance level of the toxins is 110 pS. The conductance levels increase stepwise with time up to 2000 pS. These large conductance jumps indicate channel cooperativity. If the membrane-voltage is...
متن کاملGenetic analysis of developmental mechanisms in Hydra. IV. Characterization of a nematocyst-deficient strain.
The authors have previously found that mutant hydra strains showing various types of developmental defects can be isolated through sexual inbreeding of wild hydra. One such defective strain, called nem-4, contains virtually no stenoteles, one of the four types of nematocysts present in hydra, in its tentacles. However, stenoteles are present at a normal level in the body column of this strain, ...
متن کاملNovel role of calcium in exocytosis: mechanism of nematocyst discharge as shown by x-ray microanalysis.
Mature nematocysts of the sea anemones Rhodactis rhodostoma and Anthopleura elegantissima contain a fluid that has a high concentration of solutes and is extraordinarily rich in calcium (ca. 500-600 mmol/kg wet weight); this contrasts with the surrounding cytoplasm which is rich in potassium but poor in calcium. The undischarged capsule is surrounded by a membrane that probably acts as a select...
متن کاملfrom linguistics to literature: a linguistic approach to the study of linguistic deviations in the turkish divan of shahriar
chapter i provides an overview of structural linguistics and touches upon the saussurean dichotomies with the final goal of exploring their relevance to the stylistic studies of literature. to provide evidence for the singificance of the study, chapter ii deals with the controversial issue of linguistics and literature, and presents opposing views which, at the same time, have been central to t...
