Prospects of Using Protein Engineering for Selective Drug Delivery into a Specific Compartment of Target Cells by Andrey A. Rosenkranz, Tatiana A. Slastnikova

Computational Analysis of Chromophore Tripeptides FollowingFusion of Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein and Cell-FollowingFusion of Enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein and Cell-pene... by Silvia Tri Widyaningtyas, Ekawati Betty Pratiwi, Budiman Bela

“…Cell-penetrating peptides (CPPs) are small peptides that can transfer other materials into a cellular compartment. In this research, we studied the effect of fusion of new CPPs to the N-terminal of enhanced Green Fluorescent Protein eGFP on the ability of the latter to fluoresce. …”

Why Corals Care About Ocean Acidification: Uncovering the Mechanism by Anne L. Cohen, Michael Holcomb

“…The concentration of carbonate ions relative to other carbonate species in seawater is rather low, so corals expend energy to raise the pH of seawater sequestered in an isolated, extra-cellular compartment where crystal growth occurs. This action converts plentiful bicarbonate ions to the carbonate ions required for calcification, allowing corals to produce CaCO3 about 100 times faster than it could otherwise form. …”

An Overview of Current Pretreatment Methods Used to Improve Lipid Extraction from Oleaginous Micro-Organisms by Alok Patel, Fabio Mikes, Leonidas Matsakas

“…Lipids are synthesized in the cellular compartment of oleaginous microorganisms in the form of lipid droplets, so it is necessary to disrupt the cells prior to lipid extraction in order to improve the extraction yields. …”

Genome-wide study of mRNA degradation and transcript elongation in Escherichia coli by Chen, Huiyi, Shiroguchi, Katsuyuki, Ge, Hao, Xie, Sunney Xiaoliang

“…An essential part of gene expression is the coordination of RNA synthesis and degradation, which occurs in the same cellular compartment in bacteria. Here, we report a genome‐wide RNA degradation study in Escherichia coli using RNA‐seq, and present evidence that the stereotypical exponential RNA decay curve obtained using initiation inhibitor, rifampicin, consists of two phases: residual RNA synthesis, a delay in the interruption of steady state that is dependent on distance relative to the mRNA's 5′ end, and the exponential decay. …”

Behavioral and Cellular Tagging in Young and in Early Cognitive Aging by Alexandra Gros, Amos W. H. Lim, Victoria Hohendorf, Nicole White, Michael Eckert, Thomas John McHugh, Szu-Han Wang

“…Here, we investigated in male rats how sub-regions of the hippocampus are involved in memory representation in behavioral tagging and how early aging affects such representation by combining behavioral training in appetitive delayed-matching-to-place tasks with the “cellular compartment analysis of temporal activity by fluorescence in situ hybridization” technique. …”

Aging is associated with increased brain iron through cortex-derived hepcidin expression by Tatsuya Sato, Jason Solomon Shapiro, Hsiang-Chun Chang, Richard A Miller, Hossein Ardehali

“…However, the mechanism for this increase in iron with aging, and whether this increase is localized to specific cellular compartment(s), are not known. Here, we measured the levels of iron in different tissues of aged mice, and demonstrated that while cytosolic non-heme iron is increased in the liver and muscle tissue, only the aged brain cortex exhibits an increase in both the cytosolic and mitochondrial non-heme iron. …”
