Towards a 3D Cell Model of Chlamydomonas reinhardtii
نویسندگان
چکیده
A visualization approach of the interpretative abstraction level is used to create the C. reinhardtii model [1]. By combining the information of different publications, microscopic images and videos at multiple scales, this project aims to present a more precise threedimensional structure of this cell type. The cell model is generated by using Blender [2]. In addition, 3D microscopy data was used as a base to model the Endoplasmic reticulum which was previously segmented with FIJI [3].

Investigation of an Optimized Context for the Expression of GFP as a Reporter Gene in Chlamydomonas Reinhardtii
Background: Chlamydomonas reinhardtii is a novel recombinant eukaryotic expression system with many advantages including fast growth rate, rapid scalability, absence of human pathogens and the ability to fold and assemble complex proteins accurately, however, obstacle relatively low expression level necessitates optimizing foreign gene expression in this system. The Green Fluorescent Protein (G...
متن کاملBiosynthesis of Silver Nanoparticles Using Chlamydomonas reinhardtii and its Inhibitory Effect on Growth and Virulence of Listeria monocytogenes
Background: Biosynthesis of nanoparticles using microorganisms, enzymes, and plant extracts is regarded as an alternative to chemical methods. Microalgae appear to be an efficient biological platform for nanoparticle synthesis as they grow rapidly and produce large biomass at lower cost. Objectives: The possibility of silver nanoparticles biosynthesisby freshwater green microalgae, Chlamydomona...
متن کامل3D Ultrastructural Organization of Whole Chlamydomonas reinhardtii Cells Studied by Nanoscale Soft X-Ray Tomography
The complex architecture of their structural elements and compartments is a hallmark of eukaryotic cells. The creation of high resolution models of whole cells has been limited by the relatively low resolution of conventional light microscopes and the requirement for ultrathin sections in transmission electron microscopy. We used soft x-ray tomography to study the 3D ultrastructural organizatio...
متن کاملGreen algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii possess endogenous sialylated N-glycans
Green algae have a great potential as biofactories for the production of proteins. Chlamydomonas reinhardtii, a representative of eukaryotic microalgae, has been extensively used as a model organism to study light-induced gene expression, chloroplast biogenesis, photosynthesis, light perception, cell-cell recognition, and cell cycle control. However, little is known about the glycosylation mach...
متن کاملAcetic acid-induced programmed cell death and release of volatile organic compounds in Chlamydomonas reinhardtii.
Acetic acid widely spreads in atmosphere, aquatic ecosystems containing residues and anoxic soil. It can inhibit aquatic plant germination and growth, and even cause programmed cell death (PCD) of yeast. In the present study, biochemical and physiological responses of the model unicellular green algae Chlamydomonas reinhardtii were examined after acetic acid stress. H(2)O(2) burst was found in ...
