Smooth endoplasmic reticulum assembly was studied in a cell-free system using thin-section and freeze-fracture electron microscopy. Incubation of rat hepatocyte rough and smooth microsomes in the presence of ATP, GTP, cytosol (Xenopus egg) and an ATP-regenerating system led to assembly of membrane
Stripped rough microsomes (SRM) fuse when incubated with physiological concentrations of GTP and MgCl2. In order to examine further to what extent such fusions are associated with other membrane functions of rough endoplasmic reticulum, we have evaluated the role of cytosolically exposed peptide
Electron microscope cytochemical localization of glucose-6-phosphatase in the developing hepatocytes of fetal and newborn rats indicates that the enzyme appears simultaneously in all the rough endoplasmic reticulum of a cell, although asynchronously within the hepatocyte population as a whole. To
Recent studies have shown that newly synthesized proteins and glycoproteins are submitted to a quality control mechanism in the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER). In this report we present two models: One model will illustrate a transient retention in rough ER leading to a further degradation of
Rough microsomes were subfractionated on the basis of different properties in order to investigate the nature and extent of the enzyme heterogeneity of these vesicles. A discontinuous gradient, containing monovalent cations allowed the separation of a ribosome-poor membrane fraction which was
Highly rough and porous commercially pure titanium coatings have been directly produced for first time by the cold spray technology, which is a promising technology in front of the vacuum plasma spray for oxygen sensitive materials. The wettability properties as well as the biocompatibility
We describe a procedure for disassembling rat liver rough microsomes, which allows the purification of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane. Membrane-bound ribosomes and adsorbed proteins are first detached by washing rough microsomes with 5 mM Na-pyrophosphate. In a second step, the
We report a novel strategy for the preparation of neoglycoconjugates of oligosaccharides which are obtained after complete deacylation of bacterial deep rough lipopolysaccharides (LPS) isolated from recombinant Escherichia coli bacteria synthesizing a Kdo di-[alpha-Kdo-(2-->4)-alpha-Kdo-(2-->] and a
Rehabilitation efforts for live stranded marine mammals are guided by diagnostic measures of blood chemistry and hematology parameters obtained from each individual undergoing treatment. Despite the widespread use of blood parameters, reference values are not available in the literature from healthy
A subfraction of rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) characterized by its close association with mitochondria (MITO) was isolated from low speed pellets of normal rat liver homogenate under defined ionic conditions. This fraction enriched in MITO-RER complexes contained 20% of cellular RNA, 20% of
BACKGROUND
Two osteosarcoma-derived cell lines have been extensively used to investigate the biological events occurring on titanium surfaces: MG63 and Saos-2. However, the behavior of the two lines on different titanium surfaces has never been compared.
OBJECTIVE
The aim of the present study was to
The glycosylphosphatidylinositol membrane anchor of variant surface glycoprotein of the African trypanosome Trypanosoma brucei contains several mannosyl residues for which dolichol phosphoryl mannose is supposed to be the precursor; this itself is probably synthesised by a dolichol-dependent
OBJECTIVE
Titanium is widely used in contemporary endosseous implantology and there is considerable thrust to further promote osseointegration by implant surface modifications. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of a titanium-nitride-oxide (TiNOx) coating on commercially pure
