Active transport of aromas Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) serve as invisible lines communication among host plants, pathogens, commensals, community groups, and, with flowers, their pollinators. Studying petunia Adebesin et al. show that VOCs do not passively diffuse out the cells but are actively shuttled across plasma membrane by an ABC (ATP-binding cassette) transporter (see Perspective Eberl and Gershenzon). Disabling results in damage to cell's membranes intracellular accumulation...
Abstract Several COVID-19 vaccines have shown good efficacy in clinical trials, but there remains uncertainty about the of against different variants. Here, we investigate ChAdOx1 nCoV-19 (AZD1222) symptomatic a post-hoc exploratory analysis Phase 3 randomised trial Brazil (trial registration ISRCTN89951424). Nose and throat swabs were tested by PCR participants. Sequencing genotyping performed to determine lineages SARS-CoV-2 circulating during study. Protection any caused Zeta (P.2)...
Saliva secretion requires effective translocation of aquaporin 5 (AQP5) water channel to the salivary glands (SGs) acinar apical membrane. Patients with Sjögren's syndrome (SS) display abnormal AQP5 localization within cells from SGs that correlate sicca manifestation and hypofunction. Several proteins such as Prolactin-inducible protein (PIP) may regulate trafficking observed in lacrimal mice. However, role AQP5-PIP complex remains poorly understood. In present study, we show PIP interacts...
