    Notes: [Auszug] Some anaerobic protozoa and chytridiomycete fungi possess membrane-bound organelles known as hydrogenosomes. Hydrogenosomes are about 1 micrometre in diameter and are so called because they produce molecular hydrogen. It has been postulated that hydrogenosomes evolved from mitochondria by the ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Binding to receptors in the cell nucleus is crucial for the action of lipophilic hormones and ligands. PPAR-γ (for peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor) is a nuclear hormone receptor that mediates adipocyte differentiation, and modulates insulin sensitivity, cell proliferation and ...

    Notes: [Auszug] Muscle contraction is driven by a change in shape of the myosin head region that links the actin and myosin filaments,. Tilting of the light-chain domain of the head with respect to its actin-bound catalytic domain is thought to be coupled to the ATPase cycle. Here, using X-ray diffraction and ...
