Abstract:
The ssrA degron is commonly used in fusion proteins to control protein stability in bacteria or as an interaction module. These applications often rely on the modular activities of the ssrA tag in binding to the SspB adaptor and in engaging the ClpXP protease. However, a comparison of these activities for a substantial standard set of degron variants has not been conducted previously, which may hinder the development of new variants optimized exclusively for one application. Here, we strive to establish a benchmark that will facilitate the comparison of ssrA variants under uniform conditions.

Furthermore, the addition of a reporter gene to the clones has never been accomplished.

By using an EGFP dimeric tag as a tool to explore the physical properties of cytoophidia, we find that cytoophidia are dynamic and reticular. The reticular structure of CTPS cytoophidia may provide space for other components, such as IMPDH. In addition, we observe CTPS granules with tentacles.

Abstract:
Glutamate receptors at the postsynaptic side translate neurotransmitter release from presynapses into postsynaptic excitation. They play a role in many forms of synaptic plasticity, e.g., homeostatic scaling of the receptor field, activity-dependent synaptic plasticity and the induction of presynaptic homeostatic potentiation (PHP). The latter process has been extensively studied at Drosophila melanogaster neuromuscular junctions (NMJs). The genetic removal of the glutamate receptor subunit IIA (GluRIIA) leads to an induction of PHP at the synapse. So far, mostly imprecise knockouts of the Glu

Abstract:
Increases in cytosolic Ca2+ concentration regulate diverse cellular activities and are usually evoked by opening of Ca2+ channels in intracellular Ca2+ stores and the plasma membrane (PM). For the many signals that evoke formation of inositol 1,4,5-trisphosphate (IP3), IP3 receptors coordinate the contributions of these two Ca2+ sources by mediating Ca2+ release from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). Loss of Ca2+ from the ER then activates store-operated Ca2+ entry (SOCE) by causing dimers of STIM1 to cluster and unfurl cytosolic domains that interact with the PM Ca2+ channel, Orai1, causing its

In the small intestine, interstitial cells of Cajal (ICC) surrounding the myenteric plexus generate the pacemaking slow waves that are essential for an efficient intestinal transit. The underlying molecular mechanisms of the slow wave are poorly known. KIT is currently the sole practical marker for ICC. Attempts to purify living ICC have so far largely failed, due to the loss of the KIT epitope during enzymatic dissociation. Aiming to identify and isolate living ICC, we designed a knock-in strategy to express a fluorescent tag in KIT-expressing cells by inserting the sequence of the novel gree

CHO cells are most commonly used for the synthesis of recombinant proteins in biopharmaceutical production. When stable producer cell lines are obtained, the locus of transgene integration into the genome has a great influence on the level of its expression. Therefore, the identification of genomic loci ensuring a high level of protein production is very important. Here, we used the TRIP assay to study the influence of the local chromatin environment on the activity of transgenes in CHO cells. For this purpose, reporter constructs encoding eGFP under the control of four promoters were stably i

Using the MS2 system, we engineered the DD of ADAR1 to direct it to a specific target. The aim of this work was to compare the deaminase activities of ADAR1-DD and various isoforms of ADAR2-DD.
