We assume a dynamic regulation of the shape of the flagellar beat in response to the concentration stimulus s(t) sampled by the cell along its path: sðtÞ ¼ cðrðtÞ; tÞ: ð4Þ The time-dependent stimulus s(t) is transduced by a simple adaptation mod- ule19,65,...
Manipulating mosquito reproduction is a promising approach to reducing mosquito populations and the burden of diseases they carry. A thorough understanding of reproductive processes is necessary to develop such strategies, but little is known about how s

Each group of blastocyst pool was separately collected and performed according to the Cell Amp Whole Transcriptome Amplification Kit (TaKaRa, Japan). cDNA was amplified through 20 cycles of PCR. Subsequently, 10-fold diluted cDNA was used as the template for Q-PCR, which was performed based on...
A related aspect of the invention provides a method of decreasing Ca+2 influx into a cell, such as in a spermatozoon, the method comprising contacting the cell with a compound represented by formula (I), or any one of formulas (II)-(VI). Another aspect of the invention provides a method...
transport capacity should be able to significantly change substrate concentrations within a few seconds. SLC transporters feature transport rates of a few hundred substrate molecules/s; thus, even if present, copy numbers in the range of <10-20 molecules/cell could not substantially change concentrati...

ChIP. ChIP was performed using SimpleChIP Enzymatic Chromatin IP Kit (Cell Signaling) with the indicated antibodies. Primers for ChIP-qPCR are listed in Supplementary Table 5. Centrifugal elutriation. Fractionation of spermatogenic cells through centrifugal elutriation was performed as previously described...
