Regulation of Follicular Growth and Development in Sheep
This manuscript reviews the present knowledge related to folliculogenesis in sheep.Folliculogenesis starts with formation of primordial follicles before birth, present as a pool containing a certain number of follicles. By the attainment of puberty, a group of follicles from that pool starts to grow, a process known as primordial follicle activation or recruitment. The number of growing primord...
متن کاملRegulation of transposition in bacteria.
Mobile genetic elements (MGEs) play a central role in the evolution of bacterial genomes. Transposable elements (TE: transposons and insertion sequences) represent an important group of these elements. Comprehension of the dynamics of genome evolution requires an understanding of how the activity of TEs is regulated and how their activity responds to the physiology of the host cell. This articl...
متن کاملChlamydomonas reinhardtii secretes compounds that mimic bacterial signals and interfere with quorum sensing regulation in bacteria.
The unicellular soil-freshwater alga Chlamydomonas reinhardtii was found to secrete substances that mimic the activity of the N-acyl-L-homoserine lactone (AHL) signal molecules used by many bacteria for quorum sensing regulation of gene expression. More than a dozen chemically separable but unidentified substances capable of specifically stimulating the LasR or CepR but not the LuxR, AhyR, or C...
متن کاملDiffusible signals and interspecies communication in bacteria.
Many bacteria use cell-cell communication mediated by diffusible signal molecules to monitor their population density or confinement to niches and to modulate their behaviour in response to these aspects of their environment. Work on signalling systems within individual species has formed a platform for studies of interspecies interactions that can occur within polymicrobial communities in natu...
متن کاملCell size regulation in bacteria
Various bacteria such as the canonical gram negative Escherichia coli or the well-studied gram positive Bacillus subtilis divide symmetrically after they approximately double their volume. Their size at division is not constant, but is typically distributed over a narrow range. Here, we propose an analytically tractable model for cell size control, and calculate the cell size and inter-division...
