The properties of purified cell envelope polyphosphatase, polyphosphatase activities of vacuoles and cytosol fractions of the Saccharomyces cerevisiae yeast have been compared. The whole body of evidence presently available suggest that each of the compartments under study is equipped with its own polyphosphatase which differs from polyphosphatases of other organelles. It is proposed that the organelle specificity of yeast polyphosphatases may reflect the endosymbiotic origin of eucaryotic cells.

Department of Clinical Microbiology, General Hospital "G. Gennimatas", Athens, Greece.
Background: The epidemiology of vulvovaginal candidiasis (VVC) in Greece remains poorly reported and outdated.
Objectives: We therefore conducted a 2-year retrospective survey to assess the epidemiological aspects of the infection among symptomatic Greek patients.
Patients/methods: High vaginal swab samples were collected from adult women with clinically suspected VVC attending a private diagnostic laboratory in Athens.

Tonoplast intrinsic proteins (TIPs) are the channel-forming proteins predominantly found in the tonoplast of plant cells. Despite the identification of TIPs in numerous plant species, very less is known about the precise role of different TIP subgroups. In the present study, two genes belonging to the TIP3 subgroup were studied to understand tissue-specific role and solute transport activity.

The association between late replication timing and low transcription rates in eukaryotic heterochromatin is well known, yet the specific mechanisms underlying this link remain uncertain. In , the histone deacetylase Sir2 is required for both transcriptional silencing and late replication at the repetitive ribosomal DNA (rDNA) arrays. We have previously reported that in the absence of , a de-repressed RNA PolII repositions MCM replicative helicases from their loading site at the ribosomal origin, where they abut well-positioned, high-occupancy nucleosomes, to an adjacent region with lower nucleosome occupancy.

It has been suggested that interactions of the gut microbiota with dietary proteins mediate some of the effects of dietary protein on health outcomes. However, it remains unclear what specific host responses drive the health effects of dietary proteins from different plant and animal sources.

Plant-specific homeodomain-leucine zipper I (HD-Zip I) transcription factors (TFs) crucially regulate plant drought tolerance. However, their specific roles in maize (Zea mays L.) regulating drought tolerance remain largely unreported.
