Isolation and Characterization of Cyanobacterial Extracellular Vesicles
نویسندگان
چکیده
Cyanobacteria are a diverse group of photosynthetic, Gram-negative bacteria that play critical roles in global ecosystems and serve as essential biotechnology models. Recent work has demonstrated both marine freshwater cyanobacteria produce extracellular vesicles - small membrane-bound structures released from the outer surface microbes. While likely contribute to biological processes, their specific functional cyanobacterial biology remain largely unknown. To encourage advance research this area, detailed protocol is presented for isolating, concentrating, purifying vesicles. The current discusses methodologies have successfully isolated large cultures Prochlorococcus, Synechococcus, Synechocystis. Methods quantifying characterizing vesicle samples these strains presented. Approaches isolating aquatic field also described. Finally, typical challenges encountered with purification, methodological considerations different downstream applications, trade-offs between approaches discussed.

Isolation and characterization of Faecalibacterium prausnitzii extracellular vesicles
Introduction: Extracellular vesicles (EVs) contain active biological compounds which play important roles in biological processes. The secretion of EVs is a common phenomenon which occurs in archaea, bacteria and mammalian cells. The secretion of bacterial EVs has been discovered in various species of both Gram-negative and Gram-positive bacteria. Faecalibacterium prausnitzii is one of the comm...
متن کاملIsolation and characterization of platelet-derived extracellular vesicles
BACKGROUND Platelet-derived extracellular vesicles (EVs) participate, for example, in haemostasis, immunity and development. Most studies of platelet EVs have targeted microparticles, whereas exosomes and EV characterization under various conditions have been less analyzed. Studies have been hampered by the difficulty in obtaining EVs free from contaminating cells and platelet remnants. Therefo...

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) represent an important mode of intercellular communication. Research in this field has grown rapidly in the last few years, and there is a plethora of techniques for the isolation and characterization of EVs, many of which are poorly standardized. EVs are heterogeneous in size, origin and molecular constituents, with considerable overlap in size and phenotype betwee...
