Bacteria. Bacteria are microorganisms made up of asingle prokaryotic cell. There are two general categories of cells: prokaryotic and eukaryotic. Sometimes, organisms are referred to as prokaryotes or eukaryotes, based on the type of cell(s) that compose them. Are all bacteria are prokaryotes? Ba...
(A) Differential expression analysis between cells treated with BRM014 or with DMSO for 6 h (left) or 30 h (right). (B) Steady-state chromatin-associated mRNA levels (ChrRNA-seq data) of genes upregulated (red), downregulated (blue), or non-regulated (brown) by SWI/SNF inhibition duri...

We report that LcrQ is injected into eukaryotic cells. YscM1, the transciptional regulator of Yersinia enterocolitica, is also injected into eukaryotic cells, whereas the related YscM2 protein remains associated with bacterial cells. Type III targeting of YscM1 requires binding to the SycH ...
Cells sense physical forces and convert them into electrical or chemical signals, a process known as mechanotransduction. Whereas extensive studies focus on mechanotransduction at the plasma membrane, little is known about whether and how intracellular o
Cell Structure: What are Cells Made of? 2 Basic types of Cells Comparison of Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Cells DNA Single “naked” circle; plasmids Stored in membrane-bound nucleus Membrane-enclosed organelles NO YES Examples Bacteria Fungi, plants, animals, protists Cell Wall Protection, Support ...
These primary plastids are found in members of the eukaryotic supergroup Archaeplastida. All known archaeplastids still retain some form of primary plastids, which are widely assumed to have a single origin. Here, we use single-cell genomics from natural samples combined with phylogenomics to ...
Holobiont fitness includes interactions between the host and its symbionts, between the symbionts themselves, as well as between the holobiont and the environment. The interaction between the microbiome and the host generally leads to improved fitness. P
Eukaryotic cells are driven through the cell cycle by successive activation and inactivation of cyclin-dependent kinases (Cdks). The Cdks are regulated by different proteins, including cyclins that bind and activate the Cdks to form a serine/threonine kinase holoenzyme complex. The different cyclins...
Sponges are interesting animal models for regeneration studies, since even from dissociated cells, they are able to regenerate completely. In particular, explants are model systems that can be applied to many sponge species, since small fragments of spon
