Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The unique molecular structure of eGFP prevents exciton annihilation even at high excitation densities, thus facilitating polariton condensation under conventional nanosecond pumping, and is clearly evidenced by a distinct threshold, an interaction-induced blueshift of the condensate, long-range coherence, and the presence of a second threshold at higher excitation density that is associated with the onset of photon lasing.
Journal ArticleDOI
Mitochondrial copper metabolism in yeast: mutational analysis of Sco1p involved in the biogenesis of cytochrome c oxidase.
TL;DR: In this paper, the results of a mutational analysis of S. cerevisiae Sco1p were reported, showing that the two cysteine residues of a potential metalbinding motif (CxxxC) are essential for protein function as shown by their substitution by alanines.
Journal ArticleDOI
Evidence for the association of yeast mitochondrial ribosomes with Cox11p, a protein required for the CuB site formation of cytochrome c oxidase
TL;DR: This work experimentally proves that Cox11p possesses a Nin–Cout topology, with the C-terminal copper-binding domain exposed in the mt intermembrane space, and proposes a model in which the CuB site is co-translationally formed by a transient interaction between Cox 11p and the nascent Cox1p in the intermemBRane space.
Journal ArticleDOI
Artificial cell-cell communication as an emerging tool in synthetic biology applications.
TL;DR: Recent applications of synthetic cell-cell communication systems are reviewed with a specific focus on recent advances with fungal hosts.
Journal ArticleDOI
Human members of the sco1 gene family : complementation analysis in yeast and intracellular localization
TL;DR: This work reports on the complementation behavior in yeast of two recently identified ScSco1p homologs of chromosome 17 and chromosome 22 from human that fail to complement the lack of the ScSCO1 gene.
