Dynamin: Membrane Scission Meets Physics
Dynamin hydrolyzes GTP to constrict and sever membranes. Experimental advances bring dynamin into the realm of physics and reveal key roles for membrane tension and bending at the edge of the constriction.
متن کاملMembrane lipid domains in the nervous system.
The structural properties of the lipids forming biological membranes determine a very high level of lateral organization within membranes. Lipid-driven membrane organization allows the segregation of membrane-associated components into membrane lipid domains, now worldwide known as lipid rafts, acting as dynamic platforms for signal transduction, protein processing and membrane turnover. Many p...
متن کاملQuantum physics meets biology.
Quantum physics and biology have long been regarded as unrelated disciplines, describing nature at the inanimate microlevel on the one hand and living species on the other hand. Over the past decades the life sciences have succeeded in providing ever more and refined explanations of macroscopic phenomena that were based on an improved understanding of molecular structures and mechanisms. Simult...
متن کاملOncology meets immunology: the cancer-immunity cycle.
The genetic and cellular alterations that define cancer provide the immune system with the means to generate T cell responses that recognize and eradicate cancer cells. However, elimination of cancer by T cells is only one step in the Cancer-Immunity Cycle, which manages the delicate balance between the recognition of nonself and the prevention of autoimmunity. Identification of cancer cell T c...
متن کاملBell’s inequality: Physics meets Probability
In this review we remind the viewpoint that violation of Bell’s inequality might be interpreted not only as an evidence of the alternative – either nonlocality or “death of reality” (under the assumption the quantum mechanics is incomplete). Violation of Bell’s type inequalities is a well known sufficient condition of incompatibility of random variables – impossibility to realize them on a sing...
