Emulsion PCR: a high efficient way of PCR amplification of random DNA libraries in aptamer selection.
PLoS ONE 6(9) , e24910, (2011) Aptamers are short RNA or DNA oligonucleotides which can bind with different targets. Typically, they are selected from a large number of random DNA sequence libraries. The main strategy to obtain aptamers is systematic evolution of ligands by exponential enr... |

Regulation of autoimmune arthritis by the pro-inflammatory cytokine interferon-gamma.
Clin. Immunol. 127 , 98-106, (2008) The pathogenesis of T cell-mediated diseases like rheumatoid arthritis (RA) has typically been explained in the context of the Th1-Th2 paradigm: the initiation/propagation by pro-inflammatory cytokines, and downregulation by Th2 cytokines. However, in our stu... |

A versatile low temperature synthetic route to Zintl phase precursors: Na4Si4, Na4Ge4 and K4Ge4 as examples.
Dalton Trans. (46) , 10250-5, (2009) Na(4)Si(4) and Na(4)Ge(4) are ideal chemical precursors for inorganic clathrate structures, clusters, and nanocrystals. The monoclinic Zintl phases, Na(4)Si(4) and Na(4)Ge(4), contain isolated homo-tetrahedranide [Si(4)](4-) and [Ge(4)](4-) clusters surrounde... |

Characterisation of the dynamic behaviour of lipid droplets in the early mouse embryo using adaptive harmonic generation microscopy.
BMC Cell Biol. 11 , 38, (2010) Lipid droplets (LD) are organelles with an important role in normal metabolism and disease. The lipid content of embryos has a major impact on viability and development. LD in Drosophila embryos and cultured cell lines have been shown to move and fuse in a mi... |

Purification, crystallization and preliminary X-ray analysis of the membrane-bound [NiFe] hydrogenase from Allochromatium vinosum.
Acta Crystallogr. Sect. F Struct. Biol. Cryst. Commun. 64(Pt 8) , 719-22, (2008) The membrane-bound [NiFe] hydrogenase is a unique metalloprotein that is able to catalyze the reversible oxidation of hydrogen to protons and electrons during a complex reaction cycle. The [NiFe] hydrogenase was isolated from the photosynthetic purple sulfur ... |

Structural basis for substrate promiscuity of dCK.
J. Mol. Biol. 378(3) , 607-21, (2008) Deoxycytidine kinase (dCK) is an essential nucleoside kinase critical for the production of nucleotide precursors for DNA synthesis. This enzyme catalyzes the initial conversion of the nucleosides deoxyadenosine (dA), deoxyguanosine (dG), and deoxycytidine (d... |

Probing the mechanical architecture of the vertebrate meiotic spindle.
Nature Methods 6 , 167-72, (2009) Accurate chromosome segregation during meiosis depends on the assembly of a microtubule-based spindle of proper shape and size. Current models for spindle-size control focus on reaction diffusion-based chemical regulation and balance in activities of motor pr... |

A general odorant background affects the coding of pheromone stimulus intermittency in specialist olfactory receptor neurones.
PLoS ONE 6(10) , e26443, (2011) In nature the aerial trace of pheromone used by male moths to find a female appears as a train of discontinuous pulses separated by gaps among a complex odorant background constituted of plant volatiles. We investigated the effect of such background odor on b... |

gammaCOP is required for apical protein secretion and epithelial morphogenesis in Drosophila melanogaster.
PLoS ONE 3(9) , e3241, (2008) There is increasing evidence that tissue-specific modifications of basic cellular functions play an important role in development and disease. To identify the functions of COPI coatomer-mediated membrane trafficking in Drosophila development, we were aiming t... |

Susceptibility of in vitro produced hatched bovine blastocysts to infection with bluetongue virus serotype 8.
Vet. Res. 42(1) , 14, (2011) Bluetongue virus serotype 8 (BTV-8), which caused an epidemic in ruminants in central Western Europe in 2006 and 2007, seems to differ from other bluetongue serotypes in that it can spread transplacentally and has been associated with an increased incidence o... |
