Journal ArticleDOI

Engineered nanoparticles interacting with cells: size matters

TL;DR: Common techniques to characterize NP size are summarized, recent work on the impact of NP size on active and passive cellular internalization and intracellular localization are highlighted and Cytotoxic effects are discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Fluorescent proteins for live-cell imaging with super-resolution

TL;DR: There is still room for further improvement of these important markers for live cell imaging, and special FP variants with low switching fatigue have been introduced in recent years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Neuroglobin, nitric oxide, and oxygen: Functional pathways and conformational changes

TL;DR: Based on the ligand-linked conformational changes discovered by crystallography, the pathways of the reactions with O2 and NO provide a framework that may account for the involvement of Ngb in controlling the activation of a protective signaling mechanism.
Journal ArticleDOI

Structural characterization of IrisFP, an optical highlighter undergoing multiple photo-induced transformations

TL;DR: In this article, the Phe-173-Ser mutant of the tetrameric variant of EosFP, named IrisFP, was characterized using both crystallography and (in crystallo) spectroscopy.
Journal ArticleDOI

mRuby, a Bright Monomeric Red Fluorescent Protein for Labeling of Subcellular Structures

TL;DR: It is discovered that ordered inheritance of peroxisomes is widespread during mitosis of different mammalian cell types and ordered partitioning is realized by the formation ofPeroxisome clusters around the poles of the mitotic spindle and ensures that equal numbers of the organelle are inherited by the daughter cells.
