All I knew when I first called Henrietta’s family was that HeLa cells were of the most important advances in science and that they’d come from a black woman who no one knew anything about. I was obsessed with the question of who Henrietta was for decades. In the excerpt below, you ...
LOVpep/ePDZ dimerization has been also shown to operate in HeLa cells by either cell membrane or mitochondria colocalisation. Translocation is reversible even after 3 cycles of light excitation/recovery. In yeast, mating behavior begins upon pheromone stimulation of a GPCR, which trigger...
In the case of ubiquitination, the dose– response curve has a threshold between 1 and 10 ng ml À 1 of EGF in HeLa cells. This ubiquitination threshold is an important biological feature, as it controls the modality of EGFR internalization at the PM, and thereby enables cells to ...

Soranjidiol and Rubiadin showed no significant difference in the photosensitizing ability on monoculture of colon cancer cells but they did in spheroid cultures. At the same dose of light and drug concentration, Rubiadin-PDT produced the greatest cytotoxic effect in spheroids cultures (Cogno et al....

The story of the HeLa cells is about many things—it’s about science and ethics, race, class, medicine, education. But overall, it’s also about unintended consequences: of doctors, of well-intended science, of journalism. I tell the story of all the other journalists who came along befo...
which in turn resulted in the disappearance of surface water bodies. So, had it not been for the protective influence of the GMF, Earth’s oxidising atmosphere could not have emerged and persisted. The examples of Venus and Mars show what happens to the atmospheres of planets which did not...

Depletion of the VCP adapter, UFD1, did not affect JEV entry but reduced viral RNA levels [56]. Transfection of JEV RNA into HeLa cells was used to bypass the entry step and revealed that viral replication was restricted in the presence of VCP-specific siRNA. Furthermore, p97 co-...
