Introducing Philosophy Through Pop Culture : From Socrates to Star Wars and Beyond / by Irwin, William, 1970-, editor 654991, Johnson, David Kyle, editor 654992, John Wiley & Sons (Online service) 647106

“…A closer examination, however, reveals that South Park is very much within the Platonic tradition, as Kyle and Stan engage in questioning and dialogue in order to "learn something today." …”

Phase transitions by an abundant protein in the anammox extracellular matrix mediate cell-to-cell aggregation and biofilm formation by Seviour, Thomas, Wong, Lan Li, Lu, Yang, Mugunthan, Sudarsan, Yang, Qiaohui, Chanda Segaran, Uma Shankari, Bessarab, Irina, Liebl, David, Williams, Rohan B. H., Law, Yingyu, Kjelleberg, Staffan

“…The Brosi_A1236 structure was computationally predicted to consist of immunoglobulin-like anti-parallel β-strands, and circular dichroism conducted on the isolated surface protein indicated that β-strands are the dominant higher-order structure. The isolated protein was stained positively by the β-sheet-specific stain thioflavin T, along with cell surface- and matrix-associated regions of the biofilm. …”

Techniques for analysis and integration of histology data and agent-based modelling of T cell-tumour interactions by Stephens, R

“…Immunotherapies are increasingly being developed to target aspects of the immune system, such as CD8+ T cells, in order to boost its anti-tumour response. In clinical trials of such therapies, patients are monitored in several ways, often including core-needle biopsies in which a small piece of the tumour is removed, stained for specific cell markers, and imaged.…”

Correlative light and electron microscopy of telomeric repeat-binding factor 1 in mammalian cells by von Otter, Eric

“…Chromatin fibers range from 5 nm to 30 nm in diameter with a mean diameter of 18.5 nm which decreases to 13.1 nm in low salt conditions. In order to establish a comparative data-set of telomeric and non-telomeric chromatin, nucleosomes were stained for CLEM by eGFP_APEX2 labelling of H2B. …”

Growth of myxococcus xanthus in continuous-flow-cell bioreactors as a method for studying development by Smaldone, Gregory T., Jin, Yujie, Whitfield, Damion L., Mu, Andrew Y., Wong, Edward C., Wuertz, Stefan, Singer, Mitchell

“…To demonstrate the versatility of our growth environment, we carried out time-lapse confocal laser scanning microscopy to visualize M. xanthus biofilm growth and fruiting body development, as well as fluorescence staining of exopolysaccharides deposited by biofilms. …”

Construction and characterization of a Lactococcus lactis in-trans surface display system harboring murine glycosylated tyrosinase related protein-2 by Kalyanasundram, Jeevanathan

“…Codon optimized mtrp-2 and cA genes also did not result in target protein production. In order to investigate post-translational modification interruption, expression of codon optimized mtrp-2125-276 epitope devoid of mtrp-2 native maturation signal peptide was performed which resulted in misfolded plus aggregated mTRP-2125-276 and mTRP-2125-276 –cA protein production. …”

Conditional knock out of N-WASP in keratinocytes causes skin barrier defects and atopic dermatitis-like inflammation by Kalailingam, Pazhanichamy, Tan, Hui Bing, Jain, Neeraj, Sng, Ming Keat, Chan, Jeremy Soon Kiat, Tan, Nguan Soon, Thanabalu, Thirumaran

“…Neural-Wiskott Aldrich Syndrome Protein (N-WASP) is expressed ubiquitously and regulates actin cytoskeleton remodeling. In order to characterize the role of N-WASP in epidermal homeostasis and cutaneous biology, we generated conditional N-WASP knockout mouse using CK14-cre (cytokeratin 14) to ablate expression of N-WASP in keratinocytes. …”
