The relative rate of aequorin regeneration from apoaequorin and coelenterazine analogues.
The regeneration of an active semi-synthetic aequorin, from apoaequorin produced in cells and a coelenterazine analogue, is a key step in measuring Ca2+ in the cells. The relative rates of the regeneration of semi-synthetic aequorins from apoaequorin and 28 synthetic coelenterazine analogues were compared. The results indicated that the rate is strongly influenced by the analogues used. The reg...
متن کاملPeroxidized coelenterazine, the active group in the photoprotein aequorin.
The photoprotein aequorin emits light by an intramolecular reaction when Ca2+ is added under either aerobic or anaerobic conditions. Previously reported evidence has indicated two possibilities: (i) the functional group of aequorin is coelenterazine itself, a compond that plays key roles in the bioluminescence of various other types of organisms, or (ii) it is the enolized form of this compound...
متن کاملCause of spectral variation in the luminescence of semisynthetic aequorins.
Aequorin emits light in the presence of Ca2+, decomposing into apoaequorin, coelenteramide and CO2. Semisynthetic aequorins, produced by replacing the coelenterazine moiety in aequorin with analogues of coelenterazine, showed widely different sensitivities to Ca2+ as well as certain spectral variations. A group of semisynthetic aequorins, e-type aequorins, showed bimodal luminescence, with peak...
متن کاملTransient expression of apoaequorin in zebrafish embryos: extending the ability to image calcium transients during later stages of development.
When aequorin is microinjected into cleavage-stage zebrafish embryos, it is largely used up by ~24 hours. Thus, it is currently not possible to image Ca(2+) signals from later stages of zebrafish development using this approach. We have, therefore, developed protocols to express apoaequorin, i.e., the protein component of aequorin, transiently in zebrafish embryos and then reconstitute intact a...

پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...
