Effective antibodies immobilization and functionalized nanoparticles in a quartz-crystal microbalance-based immunosensor for the detection of parathion by Della Ventura, Bartolomeo, Iannaccone, Marco, Funari, Riccardo, Pica Ciamarra, Massimo, Altucci, Carlo, Capparelli, Rosanna, Roperto, Sante, Velotta, Raffaele

“…Although important to be detected, small analytes (few hundreds of Daltons) are an issue in biosensing since the signal they induce in the transducer, and specifically in a Quartz-Crystal Microbalance, is undetectable. A pesticide like parathion (M = 292 Da) is a typical example of contaminant for which a signal amplification procedure is desirable. …”

Amino acids stimulate the endosome-to-Golgi trafficking through Ragulator and small GTPase Arl5 by Shi, Meng, Chen, Bing, Mahajan, Divyanshu, Boh, Boon Kim, Zhou, Yan, Dutta, Bamaprasad, Tie, Hieng Chiong, Sze, Siu Kwan, Wu, Geng, Lu, Lei

“…By testing components of the AA-stimulated mTORC1 signaling pathway, we demonstrate that SLC38A9, v-ATPase and Ragulator, but not Rag GTPases and mTORC1, are essential for the AA-stimulated trafficking. Arl5, an ARF-like family small GTPase, interacts with Ragulator in an AA-regulated manner and both Arl5 and its effector, the Golgi-associated retrograde protein complex (GARP), are required for the AA-stimulated trafficking. …”

Marta Czok URBE by Scarso, Jacek Ludwig, Ionescu, Georgiana, Czok, Marta

“…In Marta Czok's vision, history is made up of continuous change, concealed by a collective imagination that sees a dimension of eternity in what is, however, ephemeral: like a Julius Caesar who symbolically appears and disappears from the scene, so the riches of the Roman Empire become ruins in a city in constant motion: a deliberately ambiguous comment on how every empire rises and crumbles, and with it its own ideological values.…”
