Alignment of tropoelastin molecules during the process of elastogenesis is thought to require fibrillin-containing microfibrils. In this study, we have demonstrated that amino-terminal domains of two microfibrillar proteins, fibrillin-1 and fibrillin-2, interact with tropoelastin in solid phase binding assays. The

Cardiac arrhythmias are often associated with mutations in SCN5A the gene that encodes the cardiac paralogue of the voltage-gated sodium channel, NaV 1.5. The NaV 1.5 mutants R1193Q and E1784K give rise to both long QT and Brugada syndromes. Various
Dravet syndrome is the prototype of SCN1A-mutation associated epilepsies. It is characterised by prolonged seizures, typically provoked by fever. We describe the evaluation of an SCN1A mutation in a child with early-onset temperature-sensitive seizures. The patient carries a heterozygous missense

In this research, we examined which genes are involved in N-linked sialylation in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells using siRNA knockdown approaches. Three genes from the sialyltransferase family (ST3GAL3, ST3GAL4 and ST3GAL6) were chosen as knockdown targets with siRNA applied

The cytotoxicity and genotoxicity of abamectin, chlorfenapyr, and imidacloprid have been evaluated on the Chinese hamster ovary (CHOK1) cells. Neutral red incorporation (NRI), total cellular protein content (TCP), and methyl tetrazolium (MTT) assays were followed to estimate the mid-point cytotoxicity
Understand how considerations such as DMSO concentrations and freezing techniques are key in the successful implementation of high cell density cryopreservation (HCDC).
This page describes the use of a small-scale perfusion bioreactor with integrated microfluidic flow control and sensor technologies to predict large-scale processes.
