Not everybody can do the enucleation and cell fusion process quickly and precisely, and it is likely that the optimization of transfer procedure greatly helped us to achieve this success.»

Not exact matches

The second part of this process is the fusion of the polar nuclei with a second sperm cell nucleus, thus forming a primary endosperm.

Researchers then tested cell cultures and mouse models by using a gene editing process called CRISPR - Cas9 to demonstrate how the presence or absence of myomaker and myomerger — both individually and in unison — affect cell fusion and muscle formation.

It took a few years to rule out possibilities that the compound might be inhibiting the binding or fusion processes by which such viruses enter cells.

Five to seven years down the road, he predicts, patients recovering from spinal fusion or joint - replacement operations will have some of their own fat cells removed, processed, and implanted at the same time as other surgical procedures.

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.

Cell fusion is a process in which one or more cells combine to form a new cell with more than one nuclCell fusion is a process in which one or more cells combine to form a new cell with more than one nuclcell with more than one nucleus.

Consequently, this research reports the third plant cell fusion event that was identified during normal developmental processes of flowering plants.

According to new research, both processes rely on a single protein that enables the seamless fusion of two cells, such as a sperm cell and egg cell, or the fusion of a virus with a cell membrane.

The sex cells were able to stick together — a process that depends on other proteins — but they were not able to complete the final fusion of their cell membranes.

This process involves ploidy changes (1n → 2n → 1n) via self cell — cell fusion or endoreplication, meiosis, and sporulation to produce haploid meiotic progeny.

In the present seminar, I will summarize our findings concerning the role of Srf in myofibers to control muscle mass and I will present recent data identifying Srf as a master regulator of muscle stem cell fusion and demonstrating the implication of F - actin architecture in this process.

«This is the first demonstration using such a vesicle fusion process for delivering insulin that employs insulin - containing vesicles like those found in a beta cell and can reproduce the beta cell's functions in sensing glucose and responding with insulin «secretion»,» says Zhaowei Chen, lead author on the study.

In 1993, while at the Sloan - Kettering Cancer Center in New York, Rothman performed the key experiment that has forever linked his work to that of Thomas Südhof and Richard Scheller, by demonstrating that the same molecules that control this process in the nervous system, in the release of signaling molecules called neurotransmitters, are important to vesicle transport and fusion in all cell types.

Rothman immediately realised the importance of the result, and proposed the «SNARE hypothesis» for vesicle transport and exocytosis as a general process in all cell types: vesicle proteins specifically bind to target proteins in the plasma membrane to form a «v - t» complex which is necessary for vesicle and membrane fusion to proceed.

In the experiments described in the paper, the MGH team confirmed that their mesothelin - targeting fusion protein binds to mesothelin on either ovarian cancer or mesothelioma cells, activates dendritic cells, and enhances the cells» processing and presentation of several different tumor antigens, inducing a number of T - cell - based immune responses.
