The dynamics of changes in the level of cyclic purine nucleotides was studied in the tissues of rats with experimental D-hypovitaminosis in the range of 5 min-24 h after administration of hormonal doses of polyhydroxylated ecdysterone hydroxysterolne and predecessor of 1.25-dihydroxycholecalciferol (calcitriol)--vitamin D3. The early sharp increase of intracellular pools cEMP in the liver tissue, small intestine, brain and heart mucosa was observed. It precedes the modulation of nucleic acid biosynthesis and supposes activation of the effect of oxysterenes of G-signal (phospholipid) system in the early phase at the expense of interaction with receptors exposed on plasmatic membrane of the cells.

Eukaryotic cells typically express multiple tubulin isoforms that form the microtubule cytoskeleton. A new study of the evolution and functional diversification of pools of tubulin isoforms suggests that these proteins are part of a co-evolving network that includes the extensive microtubule interactome.

The Ogura cytoplasmic male sterility (CMS) line of has gained significant attention for its use in harnessing heterosis. It remains unaffected by temperature and environment and is thorough and stable. The Ogura cytoplasmic restorer line of is derived from the distant hybridization of and , but it carried a large number of radish fragments into , because there is no homologous allele of the restorer gene in , transferring it becomes challenging.

The intricate interplay between cellular circadian rhythms, primarily manifested in the chloroplast redox oscillations-characterized by diel hyperoxidation/reduction cycles of 2-Cys Peroxiredoxins-and the nuclear transcription/translation feedback loop (TTFL) machinery within plant cells, demonstrates a remarkable temporal coherence. However, the molecular mechanisms underlying the integration of these circadian rhythms remain elusive. Here, we elucidate that the chloroplast redox protein, NADPH-dependent thioredoxin reductase type-C (NTRC), modulates the integration of the chloroplast redox rhythms and nuclear circadian clocks by regulating intracellular levels of reactive oxygen species and sucrose.

Metal ions are essential for all life. In microbial cells, potassium (K) is the most abundant cation and plays a key role in maintaining osmotic balance. Magnesium (Mg) is the dominant divalent cation and is required for nucleic acid structure and as an enzyme cofactor.

Dysregulation of integral membrane proteins (IMPs) has been linked to a myriad of diseases, making these proteins an attractive target in drug research. Whilst PROTAC technology has had a significant impact in scientific research, its application to IMPs is still limited. Limitations of the traditional approach of immunoblotting in PROTAC research include the low throughput compared to other methods, as well as a lack of spatial information for the target.
