XMAP215: A Tip Tracker that Really Moves
XMAP215 is a microtubule plus-end binding protein implicated in modulating microtubule dynamics. In this issue, Brouhard et al. (2008) propose a new mechanism to explain how XMAP215 promotes microtubule growth. They report that XMAP215 moves with the growing microtubule plus ends where it catalyzes the addition of tubulin subunits.
متن کاملMolecular Devices AUnidirectional DNAWalker That Moves Autonomously along a Track**
Amajor challenge in nanotechnology is to precisely transport a nanoscale object from one location on a nanostructure to another location along a designated path. The successful construction of self-assembled DNA nanostructures provides a solid structural foundation to meet this challenge. DNA, with its immense information-encoding capacity and welldefinedWaston–Crick complementarity, has been e...
متن کاملMale dance moves that catch a woman's eye.
Male movements serve as courtship signals in many animal species, and may honestly reflect the genotypic and/or phenotypic quality of the individual. Attractive human dance moves, particularly those of males, have been reported to show associations with measures of physical strength, prenatal androgenization and symmetry. Here we use advanced three-dimensional motion-capture technology to ident...
متن کاملBirefringent device converts a standard scanning microscope into a STED microscope that also maps molecular orientation.
Stimulated emission depletion (STED) microscopy usually employs a scanning excitation beam that is superimposed by a donut-shaped STED beam for keeping the fluorophores at the periphery of the excitation spot dark. Here, we introduce a simple birefringent device that produces a donut-shaped focal spot with suitable polarization for STED, while leaving the excitation spot virtually intact. The d...
متن کاملA thyroid mass that moves with tongue protrusion: An ectopic thyroid gland.
Thyroglossal duct cyst (TDC) is a developmental anomaly that usually appears in early childhood. The common presentation is midline swelling of the neck, which moves with both tongue protrusion and deglutition. Diagnosis is usually clinical and radiological. Fine needle aspiration cytology (FNAC) can be used as a tool for the exclusion of malignancy in adult patients. In some cases thyroid scan...
