Abstract Background The non-conventional yeast Rhodotorula toruloides is an emerging host organism in biotechnology by merit of its natural capacity to accumulate high levels carotenoids and intracellular storage lipids from a variety carbon sources. While the number genetic engineering strategies that employ R. increasing, lack tools available for modification this still limiting strain develo...

Bacteria adapt to shifts from rapid to slow growth, and have developed strategies for long-term survival during prolonged starvation and stress conditions. We report the regulatory response of C. crescentus to carbon starvation, based on combined high-throughput proteome and transcriptome analyses. Our results identify cell cycle changes in gene expression in response to carbon starvation that ...

Phosphorus (P) deficiency is a major threat to the crop production, and for understanding response mechanism of plant roots, P stress may facilitate development crops with increased tolerance. Phosphorylation plays critical role in regulation proteins responses biotic abiotic stress; however, its functions starvation/resupply are largely unknown barley ( Hordeum vulgare ) growth. Here, we perfo...

During periods of crisis, cells must compensate to survive. To this end, may need alter the subcellular localization crucial proteins. Here, we show that during starvation, VCP, most abundant soluble ATPase, relocalizes and forms aggregate-like structures at perinuclear regions in PC3 prostate cancer cells. This movement is associated with a lowered metabolic state, which mitochondrial activity...

Regulated stem cell proliferation during development is critical to produce and organize all the types required in adult organism. In some developing organisms that experience intermittent periods of starvation, physiology adapts dynamically, presumably ensure optimal development. Drosophila brain, there are two populations neuroblasts (neural cells) respond differently dietary nutrient starvat...

This investigation addresses the following question: what are the important factors for maintenance of a high catabolic capacity under various starvation conditions? Saccharomyces cerevisiae was cultured in aerobic batch cultures, and during the diauxic shift cells were transferred and subjected to 24 h of starvation. The following conditions were used: carbon starvation, nitrogen starvation in...

Starvation during early development can have lasting effects that influence organismal fitness and disease risk. We characterized the long-term phenotypic consequences of starvation during early larval development in Caenorhabditis elegans to determine potential fitness effects and develop it as a model for mechanistic studies. We varied the amount of time that larvae were developmentally arres...

shared psychotic disorder also known as folie a dues is thought to occur in persons who live close together, so that delusions of the primarily ill patient are transferred to the partner. a case of shared paranoid psychotic disorder, with primary diagnosis of persecutory delusional disorder in the husband is described. the delusion and its consequent safety behaviors were so strong that led to ...
