Mathematical Modeling of the Pulsatory Lipid Vesicle Dynamics under Osmotic Stress
I consider a great lipid vesicle filled with an aqueous solution of a solute, for which its membrane is impermeable. Because of the mechanical tension induced by the osmotic flow, the vesicle swells up to a critical size, triggering a transient lipidic pore when it is introduced into a hypotonic aqueous medium. In this paper, we will obtain the differential equations of the vesicle dynamics, wh...
متن کاملAn Aversive Response to Osmotic Upshift in Caenorhabditis elegans
Environmental osmolarity presents a common type of sensory stimulus to animals. While behavioral responses to osmotic changes are important for maintaining a stable intracellular osmolarity, the underlying mechanisms are not fully understood. In the natural habitat of Caenorhabditis elegans, changes in environmental osmolarity are commonplace. It is known that the nematode acutely avoids shocks...
متن کاملThe role of antioxidant enzymes in response of Escherichia coli to osmotic upshift.
Aerobic growth of Escherichia coli sodAsodB and katE mutants lacking cytosolic superoxide dismutases and catalase hydroperoxidase II was inhibited by osmotic upshift to a greater extent than of their wild-type parent strains. The fur mutation leading to an intracellular overload of iron also increased sensitivity of growing E. coli cells to osmotic upshift. Using lacZ fusions, it was shown that...
متن کاملThe ftsH gene of Bacillus subtilis is transiently induced after osmotic and temperature upshift.
The ftsH gene of Bacillus subtilis has been identified as a salt-sensitive insertion mutation in strain UG1. Here, we show that UG1 has an insertion near the 3' end of ftsH. The salt sensitivity of this mutant was caused by reduction of ftsH mRNA levels by the synthesis of an artificial antisense RNA originating at a promoter located within the insertion and reading backwards into the ftsH gene...
متن کاملLimited intermixing of synaptic vesicle components upon vesicle recycling.
Synaptic vesicles recycle repeatedly in order to maintain synaptic transmission. We have previously proposed that upon exocytosis the vesicle components persist as clusters, which would be endocytosed as whole units. It has also been proposed that the vesicle components diffuse into the plasma membrane and are then randomly gathered into new vesicles. We found here that while strong stimulation...
