Sentences with phrase «dynamic instability»

He received the Award of Excellence of the University of Heidelberg as well as the Otto - Haxel - Prize for his diploma work at the European Molecular Biology Laboratory (EMBL) on the «Analysis of microtubule dynamic instability with light sheet - based microscopy».

Blue Mountain Gallery presents Turbulence, an exhibition by Anne Diggory that includes recent paintings and mixed media works with dynamic instability in motif and medium.

By early summer, the team had made enough progress to view the results: the first ever multicombustor dynamic instability simulation of a GE gas turbine.

The front and rear ends complement each other rather than conflict, with just enough dynamic instability in the tail to be able to get the car turned in with a mild lift of the throttle.

«A better understanding of how microtubule dynamic instability is regulated could open new opportunities for improving the potency and selectivity of existing anti-cancer drugs, as well as facilitate the development of novel agents,» Nogales says.

Through a combination of high - resolution cryo - electron microscopy (cryo - EM) and a unique methodology for image analysis, a team of researchers with Berkeley Lab and the University of California (UC) Berkeley has produced an atomic view of microtubules that enabled them to identify the crucial role played by a family of end - binding (EB) proteins in regulating microtubule dynamic instability.

Microtubules, hollow fibers of tubulin protein only a few nanometers in diameter, form the cytoskeletons of living cells and play a crucial role in cell division (mitosis) through their ability to undergo rapid growth and shrinkage, a property called «dynamic instability.»

The dynamic instability that makes it possible for microtubules to transition from a rigid polymerized or «assembled» nucleotide state to a flexible depolymerized or «disassembled» nucleotide state is driven by guanosine triphosphate (GTP) hydrolysis in the microtubule lattice.

«One of the most interesting phenomena associated with microtubules is this dynamic instability,» Kolomeisky said.

We applied this to systems spanning four orders of magnitude in space and time, including the diffusion of single transcription factor molecules in stem cell spheroids, the dynamic instability of mitotic microtubules, the immunological synapse, neutrophil motility in a 3D matrix, and embryogenesis in Caenorhabditis elegans and Drosophila melanogaster.

Early in our solar system's history, there was a lot of dynamic instability, and Jupiter would have careened around its orbit, scattering any smaller bodies with its massive gravity.

This work examines how the carboxy - terminal tail domain of β - tubulin governs microtubule dynamic instability and the structure of plus ends using complementary in vivo and in vitro experiments.

For cyrosphere, the team will examine the near - term risks of initiating the dynamic instability and onset of the collapse of the Antarctic Ice Sheet due to rapid melting by warming waters adjacent to the ice sheet grounding lines.
