Sentences with phrase «cell fusion between»
«Through examination of Arabidopsis ovules by highly sensitive live - imaging, we were able to see that successful fertilization of the two female gametes triggers an unprecedented cell fusion between the persistent synergid cell and the endosperm (SE fusion), which eventually leads to inactivation of the persistent synergid cell.»

However, by combining the capabilities of the Surface Forces Apparatus (SFA)-- a device that can measure the tiny forces generated by the interaction of two surfaces at the sub-nano scale — and simultaneous imaging using a fluorescence microscope, the researchers were able to see in real time how the cell membranes rearrange in order to connect and open a fusion conduit between them.
Among these functions is the transport of lipids and other biomacromolecules between cells via membrane adhesion and fusion — processes that occur in many biological functions, including waste transport, egg fertilization and digestion.
Coleman added that further research is needed to determine whether cell fusion events between normal human cell types result in genomic catastrophe and neoplastic transformation.

Ahn concluded that synergy between the drug classes is possible but dependent on two unexpected factors: the location and strength of fusion inhibitor binding to the envelope protein and the level of coreceptor expressed on the target cell.
There are numerous, diverse mechanisms that allow a low frequency of gene movement between species, such as accidental fusion of cells between different species, or the injection of DNA by bacteria into plant cells.
