Inner Secrets of the Respirasome
Structure determination by cryo-electron microscopy has approached atomic resolution and helped solve structures of large membrane-protein complexes that resisted crystallography. The 4.0 Å cryo-EM structure of one of the most intricate enzyme systems, the respirasome, in the mitochondrial inner membrane is reported in this issue of Cell.
متن کاملMarko Kaksonen: Tracking the inner secrets of endocytosis
M arko Kaksonen has always been interested in the natural world and in science, from childhood explorations of the forest paths near his home to adult explorations of the natural labyrinth that is cell biology. But, he says, it took him awhile to fi nd the subject he was most passionate about— and to select the path his career would ultimately follow. As an undergraduate and then doctoral candi...
متن کاملAre " Dwarf " Ellipticals Genuine Ellipticals?
We review the systematic properties of “dwarf” elliptical (dE) galaxies, focussing on the relation between “normal” and “dwarf” ellipticals. In recent years, this relation has been described as “dichotomy” – based essentially on a discontinuity in central surface brightness. We show that, outside of 300 pc from the centre, the Sérsic profile parameters vary continuously from “normal” to “dwarf”...
متن کاملA Sample of Field Ellipticals
Using well-defined selection criteria applied to the LEDA galaxy catalogue we have constructed a sample of elliptical galaxies that can be taken to lie in the field. Such criteria can easily be applied to theoretical simulations for direct comparison with observations. The variation of the number of ‘isolated’ ellipticals with selection criteria is also investigated. A preliminary study of the ...
متن کاملPre-enriched, not primordial ellipticals
We follow the chemical evolution of a galaxy through star formation and its feedback into the inter-stellar medium (ISM), starting from primordial gas and allowing for gas to inflow into the region being modelled. We attempt to reproduce observed spectral line-strenghts for early-type galaxies to constrain their star formation histories (SFH). The efficiencies and times of star formation are va...
