Fusions between the green fluorescent protein (GFP) and the Cauliflower mosaic virus (CaMV) movement protein (MP) induce the formation of fluorescent foci and surface tubules in Arabidopsis thaliana leaf mesophyll protoplasts.Tubules elongate coordinately and progressively in an assembly process approximately 6 to 12 h following transfection of pro
Abstract Due to their important phylogenetic position among extant vertebrates, sharks are an invaluable group in evolutionary developmental biology studies.A thorough understanding of shark anatomy is essential to facilitate these studies and documentation of this iconic taxon.With the increasing availability of cross-sectional imaging techniques,
A 42-year-old woman affected by Nails pulmonary atresia came to our attention complaining of dyspnea and fatigue for minimal efforts with important desaturation.After assessing her basal functional capacity with a cardiopulmonary exercise test, the patient was enrolled in an extremely individualized rehabilitation program, which entailed a discreet
BackgroundMutations in a novel gene, UBIAD1, were recently found to cause the autosomal dominant eye disease Schnyder corneal dystrophy (SCD).SCD is characterized by an abnormal deposition of Knife Sharpening Steels cholesterol and phospholipids in the cornea resulting in progressive corneal opacification and visual loss.We characterized lesions in
