Semliki forest virus (SFV) is internalized by clathrin-mediated endocytosis, and transported via early endosomes to late lysosomes. The intracellular pathway taken individual fluorescently labeled SFV particles was followed using immunofluorescence in untransfected cells, video-enhanced, triple-color fluorescence microscopy live cells transfected with GFP- RFP-tagged Rab5, Rab7, Rab4, Arf1. viruses progressed from Rab5-positive a population of (about 10% total) that contained both Rab5 Rab7....
Biocompatible organic dyes emitting in the near-infrared are highly desirable fluorescence imaging techniques. Herein we report a synthetic approach for building novel small peri-guanidine-fused naphthalene monoimide and perylene chromophores. The presented structures possess absorption emission, high photostability, good water solubility. After fast cellular uptake, they selectively stain mitochondria with low background live fixed cells. They can be additionally modified one-step reaction...
Abstract Enhancers are important cis-regulatory elements controlling cell-type specific expression patterns of genes. Furthermore, combinations enhancers and minimal promoters utilized to construct small, artificial for gene delivery vectors. Large-scale functional screening methodology genomic maps enhancer activities has been successfully established in cultured cell lines, however, not yet applied terminally differentiated cells tissues a living animal. Here, we transposed the...
Large-scale RNAi screening has become an important technology for identifying genes involved in biological processes of interest. However, the quality large-scale is often deteriorated by off-targets effects. In order to find statistically significant effector pathogen entry, we systematically analyzed entry pathways human host cells eight pathogens using image-based kinome-wide siRNA screens with siRNAs from three vendors. We propose a Parallel Mixed Model (PMM) approach that simultaneously...
